Lounge Review: Premium Lounge Guangzhou Airport (CAN)
This lounge was extremely crowded when I visited because a lot of airlines use this lounge for their premium passengers at Guangzhou. It’s also accessible via Priority Pass, which probably adds to the crowding.
The lounge is actually deceptively large. It’s pretty long, and there are a fair number of seating areas. In addition, there’s a large dining area all the way at the end of the lounge, so if you keep walking, you’re likely to find a place to sit.

For drinks, there were sodas, beer, and wine (and soy milk).

There were a couple of snack stations throughout the lounge with drinks, fruit, packaged goods, and snack foods.

At the end of the lounge was a pretty decent dining room. There weren’t as many people in this area, so there was more space to sit, and the food options were more extensive than expected.

There were quite a few hot food options, but they were mostly variants of fried foods. So not the best if you’re looking for something healthy.

One thing that I found strange was the bakery case. It was full of desserts, but you couldn’t access it yourself. There were staff standing near the bakery case, but none of them offered to help me even as I looked wistfully at the desserts.

Overall, this lounge has better food options than the Baiyun First Class lounge, but it’s a lot busier (which I guess makes the food more trustworthy since there’s higher turnover), but it’s also much more crowded.
Thank you for your detailed post. Much appreciated!
