 | Hey folks, sorry to ask this same question again, but it is possible that I may be visiting Guangzhou instead of Wuhan, or maybe both. I know in any country, local laws and customs can vary from place to place. Is there any problem in Guangzhou, with me sharing a hotel room with my Chinese girlfriend? I want to be a welcome and respectful visiter to China. Thanks to all. |

| That is no problem anymore. Maybe in some backwater towns where people still think of Mao as todays chairman.....but not in modern China. Especially not in places like Guangzhou..... |

| Like I've said before, I hate to disagree, but it's technically still illegal and there's nothing to stop any hotelier from disallowing cohabitation if they take a disliking to you - trust me on this one :) 75% of the time, if they agree to take on a foreign guest, they won't ask any questions. Guangzhou should probably be easier - they tend to be a lot more permissive there. If you get refused for any reason, another place will certainly accept you. Don't take it to heart... |

| Well I can only speak of my and some friends experience. For Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Chongqing and Guangzhou I never heard of or had any problems.....to 100%. |

| Haha, maybe I look like a troublemaker :) I found Beijing the worst. In my first year in China, I was travelling with a Chinese girl who was only a friend, and we wanted to share a room to save money. The receptionist asked if we were married, and then abused my friend for wanting to share a room with a foreigner... my friend was almost in tears! |
