Chinese muslim restaurant next to the 24 hrs shop below the hotel. There is pharmacy, optician, atm, banks near by. Easy to get taxi there as well. Room a little small but it is ok since i pay around us55 online for the room. Overall i like the hotel i always stay elan hotel for my business trip in guangzhou

I stayed with my husband at Elan hotel for 4 nights and we quite liked this hotel. It is not luxurios and the room is a bit small but it suit us very well and you cannot expect more for the money. The room is clean, well appointed, modern. You have tv with English channel, free internet and free breaktast (though I think breakfast is the weakest point). I liked the room because the design is rather boutique and looks new and trendy (no old carpets or deteriorated furniture but simple and modern comfort). In fact we are returning to this hotel for a night before we leave the country. The area is very lively, we ate a lot in the restaurant in front of the hotel and though they don´t speak English they made their best to understand.
The hotel is walking distance from the railway station or a tube station, but a bit difficult to find at first.

This is a hidden gem amongst all the high end hotels in Guangzhou. I looked for a reasonable but nice hotel and found this one and was very pleased. The staff could understand and speak English well enough to help me see things, do things and especially to eat nearby, There is a good seafood restaurant small and easy to miss except for the crates of live fish in front, nearby. With a very limited grasp of the language I found ordering a meal duanting without photos on the menu. I asked one of the hotel front desk staff forassistance, she dropped everything and went around the corner with me and commnicated my needs to them. I also asked for things to see and do - they gave me info , I made my selections then they wrote down in Chinese where I wanted to go so the taxi's could take me without any confusion.
Along with a helpful staff, the free breakfasts were tasty and filling, and the room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The free WiFi was a nice addition.
I highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a small hotel with a very reasonable rate and in a very convenient location for shopping, eating and walking to several nearby things to see.
