The hotel and property are very nice, and the nightly rate I found to be very inexpensive. Certainly at about US$49 a night, the overall experience and quality of the room and attentive care received, the value received is much greater than the price paid. Room is spacious and the staff friendly and helpful. Grounds are beautiful.

Nice hotel & inexpensive

I stay at this hotel regularly and find the overall experience to be good. Receptionists usually have basic English and the rooms are spacious and clean. At around 450RMB per night OYC Hotel in this same city is a similar price and is of a higher standard.

Good 

There is no international chain in Zhaoqing, we picked this hotel since we have stayed in other Country Garden Phoenix hotels before, service and room quality are quite satisfactory.

The location is a bit far away from downtown Zhaoqing, around 15 mins by taxi from Starlake square, choices of restaurant and shopping are quite limited.  Luckily, restaurants in the hotel are quite nice and reasonably priced.

The location also has it's advantage.  It is located uphill from BGY's residential project, neighborhood is quite with clean air and tranquil.

The hotel and rooms are very well maintained. Rooms are clean, spacious and equipped with balcony.  Please ask housekeeping to refill the mosquito repellent, you will definitely need it.

Other facilities are just so so, if you want nice swimming pool and gym room etc, you may want to look somewhere else.

This hotel is also very popular among locals and corp events.  The restaurant could be very crowded during breakfast.  Tables are more available after 9:00 am, but the food can't wait.

Odd numbered rooms have hill view, even numbered rooms enjoy the unblocked "garden" view.

Very well maintained, reasonably priced

Located on a nice small mountain (or hill) and the hotel is close to nature. You can hear sounds of animals from the rain forest, but cannot really get to the forest without serious effort. Western restaurant is ok - limited menu, but the price is very reasonable too. Chinese restaurant has several nice private "VIP" rooms. The food is ok. This hotel is a Chinese hotel, but they have an effort of being more international. The general manager was taking special care of our family and also other staff was very friendly and most of them could communicate in English. We had very large room (officially for 2 + 1 kid, but our 3 kids fit there just fine) for a reasonable price. Hotel arranged transportation to nearby sights, also for reasonable price. Not great, but certainly a place where you can stay.

Nice surroundings, average hotel

No one to help you if you do not speak chinese.   Breakfast is strictly chinese.   Have a lady trying to make omelete--but it is not fully cooked and the ingredients are left up to imagination.   Toaster does not work and the dining area is full of cigarette smoke (no where to hide).  Have no idea how to make coffee.  Has a 5 star rating but compared to the Rosedale in Guangzhou (4 star) then it should have a 3 star.   The cleaning personnel are terrible.  Sheet are never changed for entire week,  the towels are picked up off  the floor and refolded and hung back up.   No coffee packets only tea after the first day no more. Try to get a ride out to the town--on average took 30 minutes to 45 minutes for one to show up and then they complained about coming out and wanted to charge you double.  The taxis in zhaoqing do not have meters.  the hotel is hot and only the rooms are air conditioned.   So you come out of room and in minutes you feel like you are in a jungle with high humidity. the staff think it very funny and laugh and point at any mixed raced couples.  You feel like you are in a very hostile place.

HMMMMM--not international

The Phoenix is a grand building that sits on top of a hill in what seems to be a relatively exclusive housing development.  It is imposing and overdone in the neo-Chinese style that would make Tony Soprano jealous.  As you enter the huge, marble lobby, you are met with a large gold sculpture a top a dry fountain decorated with plastic holly and multi-colored, cascading lights.  The other decorations are a variety of colored couches and chairs upholstered in velvet with silver painted oversized wood framing.  To be fair, though, they are comfortable.  

Check-in is the standard international exercise made easier by the staff’s knowledge of English.  The hotel employees are pleasant and help the best they can with the limited resources at their disposal.  Most memorable is being given two keys to my room and overtly being told that they represented two breakfasts (as if you would meet someone during your stay in need of breakfast).  

The journey to the rooms is a long and lonely walk.  The place is huge and empty with dimly lit corridors that seems to twist on forever interrupted every so often with the aforementioned velvet seating areas.  I was on the executive floor and the room was massive.  It had a separate lounge area, two bathrooms and a balcony.  The decor, again, was neo-Chinese which means that it was western in every way except all the wood was lacquered and shiny.  As well, there are no non-smoking rooms, so everything has the oily feel to it.  The bed, though, was not as hard as most Chinese hotels have and outside of the huge hard pillows, was relatively comfortable.  There was, though, no hot water on the executive floor (top floor), but I did manage to get a bit of lukewarm after 20 minutes of running the shower.  

There are two restaurants in the Hotel, a “western” and a Chinese.  We ate at the Chinese restaurant and it was very good and very cheap.  10 people and 20+ cans of beer and the bill was under $100 US.  We had a typical private room which was clean, well appointed and quite nice.  No complaints.  We finished, though, around 10:00pm and they literally turned out the lights as we were exiting the restaurant.  

Night life is pretty limited.  There is no Hotel Bar and the restaurants close early.  You can though, play pool and ping pong for a small fee.  There is a gift shop that sells beer, include Pabst Blue Ribbon and a sundry of snacks.  We bought a few rounds and drank in one of the velvet enclaves without incident.  

Breakfast is a typical buffet combination of miss-interpreted western food and Chinese breakfast delicacies.  I was not bad.  The “Western” restaurant décor is a little mismatched with peach chairs and yellow booths.  A little much for 7:00am. 

Overall, it is not a bad hotel (believe me, there are much worse).  It is not the Ritz Carlton, but you will get a decent sleep and a massive room for roughly $60 US.  I would not necessary recommend going out of your way to stay here, but if you happened to be in Zhao Qing, it will do.
