Guangzhou White Swan Hotel is located in Baietan, Shamian, Guangzhou, and is the most legendary hotel in the minds of a generation of Guangzhou people. Opened in 1983, the White Swan Hotel is the first Sino-foreign five-star hotel in China and one of the most famous five-star hotels in China. In 2015, the White Swan Hotel ended its four-year closure for renovation, returned to the public eye with a new look, and continued to write the legendary story of the hotel. As the first five-star hotel opened to civilians after 1949, the White Swan Hotel is also a symbol of China's reform and opening up. It's just that the hotel is located in the old town, and business guests who often have activities in the new CBD will have less convenience to travel. Over the past 30 years, the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou has received 150 heads of state and members of the royal family from more than 40 countries, including the late national leader Deng Xiaoping, Queen Elizabeth II, former US President Nixon, former US President George W. Bush and his wife Barbara, former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore, etc., have stayed and even visited the White Swan Hotel many times. In the list of visits to the White Swan Hotel, the most popular is the Queen Elizabeth II who visited in 1986, the Queen's visit to Guangzhou at that time had just opened the door to the country brought a lot of sensation, and then the Rolls-Royce used by the Queen of England to visit was also displayed in front of the White Swan Gate, becoming the symbol of the White Swan Hotel. At present, the renovated White Swan Hotel inherits the previous Chinese Lingnan style, and the decoration style is elegant and luxurious, which is a new aesthetic experience for business guests who are accustomed to seeing Western-style five-star hotels. The hotel has 520 luxurious rooms and suites, ranging in size from 60 square meters to 90 square meters, both in terms of the number of rooms and the size of the rooms. The rooms are clean, simple and elegant, and all are equipped with executive desks, which are quite convenient for business travel.

The room window overlooks the first-line river view, the sand surface layout and the buildings of the world are in full view, and the environment is quiet and tranquil. Room prices are more affordable than other five-star hotels, with standard rooms starting at 900 RMB, executive deluxe rooms mostly within 2,300 RMB, and suites starting at 2,600 RMB.
