Quick answer: The best area to stay for the Canton Fair is Pazhou, right next to the fair complex, followed by Zhujiang New Town and areas along Line 8 of the metro. Book early, since hotel prices in Guangzhou rise sharply during the fair.

Stay in Pazhou for convenience

Pazhou is the district around the fair complex. Staying here means a short walk or ride to the halls, which saves time every day. It is the first choice for serious buyers.

Zhujiang New Town for comfort

Zhujiang New Town is Guangzhou central business district, with quality hotels, restaurants and easy metro access to Pazhou. A good balance of comfort and connectivity.

Along the metro for value

Hotels along the metro line to Pazhou offer better value and still keep your commute short. Check the walking distance from the station before booking.
