My recent stay at Marhaus was exceptional! The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, always going the extra mile to ensure a smooth stay. They not only held my online shopping deliveries before and during my stay, but they even helped arrange returns for items that required a local phone number. This saved me a lot of hassle and made my trip much easier. The in-room laundry facilities, with free washer and dryer access on level 2, were a lifesaver, allowing me to pack light and return home with clean clothes. The room itself was comfortable, with fresh towels and amenities provided daily, even on days I didn't request them. There were no unpleasant smells, and the size was reasonable.
Something to consider: The hotel is located on the left side of the road, and in China, drivers tend to pick up and drop off passengers on the right. If you're staying here, just be aware that you might need to cross the street to catch a taxi. The only minor drawback was the flooring in the room, which appeared slightly aged. Some areas of the vinyl flooring were warped and uneven.
Overall, Marhaus exceeded my expectations. The exceptional service, convenient amenities, and comfortable room made my stay in Guangzhou truly enjoyable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the city.
