Zhuhai Guotai Hotel

“Went for a night, stayed for two...”

The room was clean and comfortable, large and inviting, had a great view, but with one serious drawback for me...I booked a non-smoking room, and the room smelled slightly of smoke.

The room was clean and comfortable, large and inviting, had a great view, but with one serious drawback for me...I booked a non-smoking room, and the room smelled slightly of smoke. And the ash trays clearly confirmed my suspicions...So what's up with that? The crew, from the front desk to the restaurant, to the man who stood at the door, were all most eager to please, but never have I seen a four star hotel at a major border crossing that did not have one person available that could understand more than a few words of English...again not as represented...But as an American speaking English, sometimes we have learned to expect more than this. After-all, it is a luxury hotel in a major thoroughfare...So again, some simple improvements could make a great hotel even better. Convenient to the border, a good menu. Might I recommend the four meat appetizer as a meal for meat lovers like myself. And don't let the expensive prices on certain steaks fool you...They are not better than the appetizer based on my experience...And by the way, one thing you will learn about almost all restaurants in China, is that when you ask what is best or most popular, they will almost always point to the most expensive thing on the menu. And more times than not, this is simply not true...Oh and about the massage. no matter how clear I tried to make it that I only wanted a normal massage, be prepared to be offered more, but again, that just seems to come with the territory and is possibly not the responsibility of management, even though I was under the idea that the one who suggested it, was probably getting a cut of the action...Maybe stick to the spa, which I also tried. But there had only a steam room which again was a little difficult to negotiate because it was not on the menu...Other than these things, it is nearly deserving of a 5.

A plus is its location to the Macau border near Gong Bei Checkpoint. For travellers who transit to Macau may want to spend a night or 2 in beautiful Zhuhai. The rooms are fairly clean and have the necessary little things a traveller might need. The restaurant on the first floor names itself "Western Style". They bring along a set of western cuttlery and porcelain. The chef may once have seen a western cooking show on TV. But luckily there is a Mc across the street and a KFC next door for those who are looking for some western taste. This is clearly not an upper scale hotel and caters mostly to Chinese customers and for those smoking or non-smoking room is about the same. The staff speaks some basic English and is fairy helpful. But if a real problem arises some knowledge of Chinese language and tricks of the trade might be helpful. There are quit rooms towards the side alley which are recommended given the busy thoroughfare on the main entrance. All in all one gets what is being paid for. In China always have hotel name and address printed on paper to show to the taxi driver.

“Very close to the Macao Border”

The hotel is clean and very close to both the Gong Bei bus station and to the crossing into Macao. It’s about a 4 minute walk to the border.

We did find some quaint local sea food restaurants very reasonable close to the hotel. Also a nice foot massage place about 80yards away. The only per room over what the Booking.com quoted us.

“Fairly Good Hotel”

Room was spacious and clean. 5mins walk from zhuhai border. Near to gongbei basement plaza. Fast food restaurant beside and also opposite hotel. Staffs attitude are normal which I find that in Zhuhai level of customer service had alot of room for improvement.
