Originally an HSBC bank started by the British in the middle of the 19th century, what is now the Victory Hotel became the Victoria Hotel at the end of the 19th century. Since then the Guangdong Victory Hotel, one of the most historic business hotels in China has experienced more than one hundred years of history.

Located on the charming and historical Shamian Island, the Guangdong Victory Hotel is surrounded by an enchanting and peaceful environment and vividly embodies the essence of Baroque and Greek architecture. Shamian Island was classified as a State Cultural and Historical Protectorate. It is endowed with a rich history represented by the British and French settlements there in the early 20th century, which is still visible in the European-style architectures, such as the French Catholic Church, the British Christian Church, prior British and French Consulates and many other overseas offices.

The Guangdong Victory Hotel is located 1km to city center, 40kms to the airport and 6kms to the Railway Station. It is within walking distance to the US Consulate.

The Guangdong Victory Hotel has more than 330 comfortable rooms including double rooms, single rooms, and deluxe suites of Chinese, Japanese, and French-style.

Stores, post offices, shopping centers, and banks are all located a stone's throw away in every direction. Above all else, the Guangdong Victory Hotel offers a bird's eye view of the spectacular Pearl River. In addition, the hotel offers a quiet refuge of newly refurbished luxurious business suites with broadband access to Internet, around-the-clock room service, a sun-drenched pool, and an efficient and fully equipped Business Center.
