Pure luxury hotel. From the elegant river view from room to the excellent service, every detail is perfection. The dining options are exquisite, and the historic charm of Shamian Island makes it even more special. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure a flawless stay. A true five-star experience—highly recommended!

White Swan is my #1 choice whenever I visit the Canton Fairs (both the Spring and the Autumn Shows). The hotel provides a free shuttle and boat ride to the exhibition hall directly daily during the fairs. The meal options during the fair have been nothing but extraordinary! The hotel staff, as well as their service, are superb as well! I highly recommend this hotel to all the visitors to Canton, both on business and for personal leisure.
