Novotel Guangzhou Baiyun Airport - 4 Star Hotel

What guests think

Novotel Guangzhou Baiyun Airport is widely chosen for its proximity to the terminals, making it ideal for late arrivals and early departures, with straightforward access that keeps transfers short and reduces the stress of overnight or brief layover stays.

Rooms are generally clean, modern and comfortable, and staff are widely described as friendly and helpful. Several reviews note drawbacks such as smoke odors in some rooms or public areas, small rooms for some, and open bathroom layouts with awkward mirrors. Breakfast draws frequent praise, while dinner can feel limited or poor value, and several travelers struggled to find or wait for the Terminal 2 shuttle. Expect a clean, efficient airport stay best suited to short stopovers.

Nice almost new hotel right next to the airport and the Pullman hotel. So very convenient. Nice and helpful staff. Limited dinner and wine menu however. And the sink + mirror in the room is placed a little inconvenient which makes it hard to shave etc.

Perfectly fine hotel very close to airport terminal. Staff were friendly and efficient with check-in and also the return bus to terminal for next flight. Only criticism is that the menu offer and service in the dining room was not what I'd expected. It felt like staff were watching over you and no local beer was available. Also lobby bar closed very early (around 10pm) and considering I'd been on a long flight I'd have liked to have enjoyed a little bar relaxing time. Still a very good choice for stop over at Guangzhou Airport

I stayed for 1 night in transit. Overall the hotel is great. My room was large and luxurious, with everything and more you could hope for. Breakfast was also plentiful with Western and Eastern options. Overall staff couldn’t do enough to help, however English was only spoken by a few of the team, but we got by. The dinner experience was interesting, as was the food, but adequate for a layover. The Pullman next door may be a better option for dinner and it’s an easy walk. Re: the shuttle from the airport: You can walk to/from Terminal 1 through the Pullman Hotel, however must take the free shuttle to/from Terminal 2. It’s every 30 mins which is easy enough from the hotel when you know the times, but may result in a bit of a wait from the airport (outside in the very humid weather!). But it is only a few mins once you’re on it and it leaves, Overall it’s a good hotel. The pool and gym, shared by and located at the connecting Pullman, looked big and inviting however it was so humid, I’m not sure how refreshing it would be being outdoors! But I would stay here again, very inexpensive and a great option if laying over a number of hours. As an Aussie passport holder, you don’t need a visa to transit either and just follow the signs for Foreign Passports (not transit passengers) to depart the airport which was very easy.

Between terminal 1 and terminal 2, so a convenient location if you have a layover. However, you DO need to go through immigration first - you will need to get a 24-hr "in transit visa". You have to go back through security and immigration to get your next flight. The bed was hard, the hotel lobby smelled of smoke, the room was small, there was on English channel on the TV, and the WiFi was between very slow and just unable to connect at all. Seeing as this was the only WiFi I could connect to in the whole airport, this was especially frustrating. So you get what you pay for - a cheap room in a cheap hotel so that you can stay one night and get your next flight. The bedsheets, shower etc were clean. So there was nothing awful.

Super convenient to stay the night before if you have an early morning flight. The layout of the rooms is a bit odd to me; the bathroom and shower are sort of in an open format facing the room itself. Our room also reeked of smoke (despite there being a sign saying no smoking inside the room). Overall the free shuttle to the airport and ease of check in/check out beats everything else!

If you are arriving at terminal 2, look for another hotel. You are forced to take the hotel's shuttle bus because you can't walk from terminal 2 to the hotel. The shuttle bus is only on a 30 minute schedule, it is slow and crowded, and if its full you miss out. No taxi will pick you up to take you to the hotel because its inside the airport. You are better off going to another hotel outside the airport where you can get straight into a taxi when you leave the airport.

Erst einmal war es kompliziert zum Hotel zu finden. Es liegt in Sichtweite des Flughafens, aber es gibt anscheinend keinen Fußgänger-Weg. So mussten wir herausfinden, von wo der Bus dorthin abfährt. Das Hotel selbst hat einen guten Standard, ist aber ein wenig laut, da es sich auf einer Verkehrsinsel befindet und die Chinesen gerne auch nachts von der Hupe Gebrauch machen. Das Restaurant sieht mit seiner einsehbaren Küche gut aus, das Essen hat jedoch im besten Fall mittelmäßigen Service und Mitarbeiter, die kein/kaum Englisch verstehen und eher abweisend sind. Die Zimmer hatten einen guten Standard. Alles war modern und sauber. Und das ist die Hauptsache.

The hotel is directly opposite Baiyun Airport Terminal 1. It is a non-smoking hotel. International flight is at Terminal 2. There is a shuttle service starting at 0500 I think, and at every XX25 and XX50 after. The shuttle goes from Novotel to Pullman and then to T2. For smokers, I recommend you take the 2nd floor room, near to RM520X. The smoking point is just on the bridge linking Pullman and Novotel, but the side on Pullman cannot be opened from the outside. The breakfast is so-so. If you can skip it, there are better options in the airport. It is about 10mins walk to Terminal 1. I dont remember you have to carry your luggage up any stairs, there are escalators. To walk to T1, you will need to go down to the ground floor of Novotel, walk to Pullman and go up to the 3rd floor and exit from there. You can see the airport from there onwards. Sorry i didnt take any pictures of the room but it was for 1 night stay facing the runway but it was quiet.
