James Joyce Coffetel Hotel (Guangzhou Beijing Road Metro Station Pedestrian Street)

Nice hotel, clean and good service. Worth for money. Especially Reception Ms. Xiao Liang she is very helpful.

Good environment, strategic location. Walking distance to Beijing pedestrian street and train station. Friendly staff.

I’ve stayed at several hotels around Guangzhou, and I can say that my experience here was quite different — both in good and not-so-good ways. 🔹 Location-wise, this hotel is excellent. Everything is super close by — especially halal restaurants, which is a big plus for me. It’s also kids-friendly and stroller-friendly. 🔹 However, the hotel only has one lift, so at peak times you may need to wait a bit. 🔹 One thing to note: if you’re particular about noise, avoid Level 2, as you can hear the underground train passing. On Level 5, it’s perfectly quiet. I stayed on Level 2, 4, and 5 (yes, I got switched three times 😅), so I’ve seen the difference. Room comfort was okay overall, but during my stay I faced some issues — which the hotel eventually resolved. I appreciate that, though it did take some time. If I could suggest one thing, it would be for the front desk staff to be a bit more warm and welcoming. A little smile goes a long way. But I really want to praise the housekeeping team — all the cleaners were super friendly, always smiling, and they genuinely made the environment feel more pleasant. Also, special thanks to Ms. Wu, who tried his best to assist me during a difficult situation. I appreciate the follow-up, his effort to help and the gifts. Overall, it’s a strategically located hotel and I hope the service side can keep improving.
