“Ritz Guangzhou's palace-style classic”
The Ritz-Carlton, Guangzhou is a European palace-styled luxury hotel — a proactive upgrade landed one guest a tower-view executive room with the Canton Tower panorama from bed; spotless spacious quiet rooms, smart toilets, an excellent executive lounge with surprisingly good homestyle mains, a memorable anniversary cake and light-sweet desserts, and genuinely kind helpful staff. Honest notes: opened 2008 and renovated 2021 but the design still shows age — prefer new hotels — the sauna is steam-only, the TV and bathtub are small, hygiene could be better, and ground-floor breakfast staff chatted through orders requiring repeats.
