Exiang Plus Hotel (Harbin Zhongyang Dajie Suofeiya Cathedral)

📍 No. 1, No. 107 Shangzhi Street, Daoli District, Harbin
★★★★ 9.6 (2,912 reviews)

"Stepping inside, the fresh, natural wood tones combined with soft lighting immediately give you that 'homey' feeling. I especially loved the tapestry on the wall and the minimalist floor lamp in the room – perfect for a quick photo op. The mattress was just right, not too soft nor too firm, and the pillows really helped with sleep. The soundproofing was excellent, allowing me to sleep soundly even in the middle of the city. If you're looking for a 'small yet beautiful' aesthetic and a quiet, comfortable, slow-paced lifestyle, this place is absolutely perfect. It's not just accommodation; it's a healing journey into Nordic living aesthetics."

Jifeng International Hotel (Harbin Taiping International Airport T2 Terminal)

"I specifically chose this airport hotel because of its proximity to the terminal, which made traveling so much easier. They offer a free 24-hour shuttle service, so I didn't have to worry about transportation even with a late-night arrival. The room was spotless, well-organized, and had excellent soundproofing – I couldn't hear any airplane noise. Check-in at the front desk was quick, and the staff were very friendly. It's the perfect place for a short stopover, and I highly recommend it to anyone catching a flight."

"The location is convenient, right across from a fresh market, and very close to Central Street. It's easy to get to all the attractions. One day I went to Harbin Institute of Technology, and I just walked about 200 meters to catch a bus. On the way back, it dropped me off right at the entrance."

"I was very satisfied with the room; it was excellent value for money. The room design is stylish, and I noticed that all the materials used are from reputable brands. The toilet, surprisingly, was a fully smart Arrow brand model – I was so impressed! It's even better than some five-star hotel setups. The service was also great. I'll definitely be back to stay here again for the next Ice and Snow Festival."

"Facilities: Relatively complete, though the room size is a bit on the smaller side. Cleanliness: Spotlessly clean, no hidden corners. Environment: Conveniently located about a fifteen-minute drive from the Ice and Snow World. However, it's a bit further if you're heading to Central Street or other similar attractions. Service: The service quality is excellent. Special commendation goes to the restaurant staff, who were warm and responsive. You should definitely try the night-time barbecue; it's delicious!"

"A very satisfying stay experience. Soaking in the hot springs was so relaxing. After the park closed, we had the entire snow world to ourselves."

China Harbin Ice And Snow World RV Campground Hotels in Harbin

China Harbin Ice And Snow World RV Campground

"Advantages: 1. The outer ring of the building is quite unique, resembling a snow house. 2. The rooms are very warm, with ample underfloor heating. 3. There's a convenient rest area within the scenic area for drinking water, using the restroom, and taking a break. Disadvantages: 1. There's only one front desk for so many rooms, and they rarely reply to messages. They only responded once to a message requesting pickup after ticket check and entry, and even then, it was only possible to contact them after ticket check, which took about ten minutes. We had to send voice messages or make phone calls to get a reply. 2. Unlimited entry is only valid before 9 PM. We went out for dinner and returned after 9 PM, so we couldn't enter through the gates. 1. We asked them to communicate with the staff, but they told us to talk to the security guards ourselves. They said they couldn't help us if we couldn't get in. 2. The breakfast was too basic, feeling like a cheap hotel breakfast. It was supposed to be open until 9:30, but when we arrived around 9:00, there was practically nothing left. 3. The hot spring service was practically nonexistent. There were only two pools, the temperature wasn't high enough, and the outdoor pool was too cold. Chatting with other guests staying there, none of them tried it. 4. We had to check out before 12:00 the next day or we'd have to pay extra. However, the hotel service center didn't offer luggage storage; we had to go to the luggage storage area at the scenic area entrance. After checking out, we wanted to explore the area a bit before leaving, but the front desk wouldn't let us store our luggage. We figured we had a busy schedule and it wasn't worth going back to the entrance to store it, so we just dragged our luggage around. We didn't expect that handling suitcases in the snow would be so different from on flat ground—it was exhausting, and the weight increased several times over! 6. The room was very small and cramped. 7. The King's Chariot required a half-price ticket, and participation in the Ferris wheel depended on the weather. The above are objective reviews of the hotel. Overall, I think it's poor value for money; only for those with a lot of money. Although I wasn't very satisfied with the hotel, I was extremely satisfied with the scenic area. It was huge and very fun, and the ice sculptures were magnificent! 👍🏻"

Harbin Central Street Habsburg Hotel (Sofia Church) ★★★★★
"The hotel's location is fantastic, just a five-minute walk from Central Avenue. The service is exceptional; as soon as you check in, you're treated like royalty, experiencing the 'Princess, please alight' service firsthand. The restaurant is excellent, with a great ambiance and complete facilities. Breakfast is served for a generous amount of time, and the afternoon tea offers a wide variety of pastries. My stay was wonderful, and I'll definitely be staying here again next time I visit."

Novotel Harbin Zhongyang Street ★★★★
"Facilities: Great, the beds and decor were very comfortable. Having a dryer and washing machine was also super convenient. The breakfast was very rich and satisfying; if you don't feel like going to the morning market, having a leisurely breakfast at the hotel is also a great option. Hygiene: Super clean. It's clear they put a lot of effort into maintaining cleanliness. They provide an ultra-fast hairdryer that dries hair really well, much better than the old-fashioned ones. Environment: It's right next to St. Sophia Church, and the Daoli vegetable market is just beside it, so there are plenty of food options. If you're not used to local cuisine, the surrounding commercial facilities are well-developed, with places like Mixue Ice Cream & Tea and McDonald's easily accessible. It's also very close to Central Street."
