Guangzhou has a humid subtropical climate influenced by the Asian monsoon. Fall and winter are probably the best time to visit, as temperatures are mild all year round. The summer can be hot and humid with occassional drizzles between June and October.
For hotel accommodations, it is more reasonably priced during off season. If you don't want to pay an incredibly high hotel rates and you don't want crowds, avoid coming here during the month of April and October when the annual spring and autumn exports trade fairs are held.
