The Westin Guangzhou

Area & Activities

The Westin Guangzhou is located in Tianhe, the burgeoning central business district of Guangzhou. Wonderful retail shopping and dining, as well as parks, museums, and sightseeing attractions, are only a short walk—or subway or taxi ride—away. The convenient location makes this upscale Guangzhou hotel an ideal meeting point, and a renewing destination in which to rest, shop, exercise, and be at your best.

Guangzhou’s 2000-year history comes to life in its numerous museums and historical attractions. The Tomb of the Southern Yue Kings transports you back to Guangzhou’s imperial past. During the 1800s, Guangzhou, then called Canton, rapidly grew into a flourishing port, where merchants from the world over gathered to trade tea, spices, Chinese silk, and porcelain. Today, Guangzhou remains the commercial gateway to China, and has evolved into a modern metropolis, where malls and skyscrapers sprout freely, new expressways crisscross, and the population accelerates towards modernization. In all of this growth, Guangzhou has preserved much of its heritage, inviting visitors to explore a rich history and culture.

Adjacent to the hotel is CITIC Plaza complex, which consists of two residential buildings, a train station serving the Guangzhou-Shenzhen and Guangzhou-Hong Kong lines, a metro station, and the Tianhe Sports Center. It also houses one of two nearby retail centers featuring such brands as Ports, Moiselle, Jorya, Vasto Collection, Sussi, BMW Lifestyle, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Fendi, Versace, and Ermenegildo Zegna. Guests will find additional shopping options at the nearby Guangzhou Friendship Times Square Store.
