Inns in Heilongjiang, China

It was great. The owner is so helpful with all the bookings. The inn is located at the end of the road. A bit of distance from the main road. However it is usually full or almost full and I wonder why? So one reason is the helpful owner. Secondly the cooks there can whip up delicious dishes. Thirdly, one difference between this inn and others is that it has a large area in front of the inn. So if you have kids, they will appreciate the large area during winter. I love the big swing in front of the property. Looking at the stars while swinging under the stars. It is a nice place to stay but be prepared by how the North East people live and sleep.

We stayed at Kuolanting Inn for two nights and had a truly memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by three friendly women. Although language was sometimes a barrier, we always felt well taken care of. The hosts patiently used a translator whenever we needed anything, which made communication smooth and reassuring. Mr. Gang was exceptional. Even before our arrival, he provided us with all the information we needed. He managed all our transportation—from Harbin to Snow Village and back to Harbin—and even arranged our transfers between Snow Village and Snow Town seamlessly. During our stay, he joined us in activities and recorded our moments using his 360° camera, which was such a thoughtful and special touch. The lady who cooked for us was lovely, and every meal she prepared was absolutely delicious. We felt full, comfortable, and genuinely cared for throughout our stay. Would I recommend this place? Certainly,yes!

The best decision I made on this trip to Northeast China was choosing Shengshi Jiayuan Homestay – it truly elevated my travel experience! The moment I stepped inside, the wonderfully warm *kang* (traditional heated bed) immediately won me over. With temperatures outside dropping to minus 20 degrees Celsius, the *kang* kept me toasty from my toes to the back of my head. Sleeping on it at night was incredibly comfortable and peaceful, a hundred times better than an electric blanket – truly a 'rejuvenation magic weapon.' The floral bedding, the strings of corn hanging in the room, and the delicious Northeast farmhouse cuisine all contributed to an immersive, authentic Northeastern atmosphere. The vibe at the guesthouse was fantastic, filled with laughter from beginning to end. The biggest surprise was that a local auntie accompanied us throughout our snow activities at Wusong Ridge. We tried snowmobiling and tubing, and not only did she patiently teach us how to play, but she also helped us take amazing, atmospheric photos – she was more attentive than a friend! Her personality was cheerful and warm; she chatted with us about daily life and shared local stories, which was incredibly engaging. Any loneliness I felt from traveling solo completely vanished – she truly delivered on emotional value! During my stay here, the warm *kang* kept me cozy, and the auntie's warmth touched my heart. The authentic Northeastern flavors and the cheerful atmosphere made it hard to leave. Whether you want to experience Northeastern folk customs or have a blast in the snow, choosing this place is absolutely the right decision. I've already recommended it to all my friends planning a trip to the Northeast!

This is a great place to stay and I would highly recommend it to everyone. The rooms are very clean. You can arrange private transportation through the hotel staff. The chef makes delicious food, so you don't need to eat out. The hotel can also arrange all the activities you need, making the trip very smooth and enjoyable. But above all, I want to thank and appreciate all the staff who helped me find my lost phone while doing activities in the mountains. Everyone helped me so much, even in freezing weather, and even stayed up late without expecting anything in return. I was very impressed with this place and will definitely return if I have the chance

Prior before arriving we communicated thru wechat. Inn’s owner are very responsive and i can sense they are genuinely nice couple. I requested a door to door transfer with a private car for the 4 of us from Harbin city snow valley. All snow activities was arranged by Lao Ban too. Upon arrival we was greeted warmly. Lao Ban and Lao Ban Niang was very accommodating and friendly. Housekeeping/cook madams was just so motherly adorable. We had some good conversation with Lao Ban albeit thru google translate. A friendly man, there is always something to talk about when we see each other. Lao Ban Niang was equally nice, she offered us coffee, get hot water to heat up our ready to eat meal packets and suggested vegetarian/seafood dishes tha we can order. Since we are muslim, the breakfast provide was plain porridge, steamed bun, hard boiled eggs and some pickled vegetables, it was sufficient to start the day. The room was clean, cosy and spacious enough for 4 adults. Ample space for our stuff. It was another unforgettable unique experience staying in Wuchang Snow Valley Mountain Courier station. We absolutely love it.

An absolutely wonderful stay! A big thank you to the hostess and our guide. We came with our child, and the experience was fantastic. The room was cozy and comfortable, and the guesthouse environment was lovely. The hostess even gave us a complimentary 'splashing water into ice' experience and some frozen pears and persimmons. Plus, there's free shuttle service to the main street, which is super convenient. The best part, though, is that right next to the guesthouse, there's a snow slope and slide built by the owners themselves, which the kids absolutely loved! 👍 On the second day, the guesthouse guide accompanied us throughout our trip to see the rime ice, taking photos and videos with great patience. We're very grateful!

Cleanliness & Basics: The room was clean and we had hot water for showers. Authentic Experience: We enjoyed feeling immersed in the local neighborhood, with lots of small, inexpensive restaurants nearby. Points for Foreign Families to Note: Language Barrier: The staff were very kind and helpful, but did not speak English. They managed communication using translation apps, which was fine but required patience. Breakfast: The complimentary breakfast was entirely Chinese-style (congee, egg, steamed buns, pickles). Amenities: Don't expect extra facilities like a gym or pool. It's a place to sleep and clean up, not a resort. Local Focus: The inn is clearly geared toward domestic travelers, so room decor is simple and functional. Overall: This inn is an excellent, economical choice if you prioritize a clean room and good value. We were comfortable and would use it again for a budget trip

Stayed 5 nights in Snow Valley (2 nights at XHM, 3 nights at DZH). Giving a good review because: 1. The young proprietress provides excellent service. She's sincere, friendly, and genuine, which makes you feel relaxed and at ease. 2. The location is in the center of Snow Valley. The stage is just a few steps away, and there are plenty of food options outside, which is very convenient. The guesthouse also sells food, and it tastes quite good. Many people dine there for dinner. The proprietress has decorated the guesthouse exterior nicely. You can tell she put a lot of thought into it. Recommendation: There's an entertainment venue nearby (where you can enjoy activities like snow tubing) for about 50-100 yuan per person for a few hours. Recommendation: There's a lamb skewer shop right outside the guesthouse, and it's delicious. I went there for a late-night snack. Shop name: Brothers BBQ.

This family-run guesthouse offers excellent service. The courtyard is beautifully decorated, and you can even see and pet white foxes and sika deer. The owners are incredibly kind and helped us plan our itinerary and book tickets. We managed to do everything we wanted in our three-day, two-night stay. The breakfast was simple, but the food ordered at the guesthouse was delicious. The rooms were lovely and clean, with underfloor heating and a traditional 'kang' bed. The free nightly activities were also a lot of fun, and Uncle Lao's guided tour of Wusong Ridge was absolutely fantastic and definitely worth it.

I chose the Lily Hotel based on its affordable price, good ratings, and the fact that each room had a private bathroom (some hotels even have one toilet shared across the entire floor, and showers shared between two floors, which is very inconvenient). Based on these criteria, plus the need for Wi-Fi, I ultimately chose the Lily Hotel. The reviews there were initially quite good, but unfortunately, my room experience was not good. First, the hotel doesn't have an elevator, which could be a big problem for guests with a lot of luggage. My room was the last one, right at the bottom of the stairs, so I had to constantly remind myself to be careful not to fall down the stairs, which I found very annoying. Second, a major drawback is that at 163cm tall, I can easily touch the ceiling. If guests are taller, this room would definitely not be suitable. It felt like it used to be a storage room that was later converted into a guest room. Yes, there was no TV in the room, which might be a drawback for some. But for me, the downside was that smoking was allowed in the room, and there was a non-nicotine odor. The windowsill was tiled, making the room very cold. Fortunately, there was a light, warm blanket at night, which made it a little more comfortable. When I opened the bathroom door, I was afraid to shower, worried that water would splash onto the water heater's wiring and cause a short circuit. However, after a closer look, I realized the water shouldn't have reached there, so it wasn't a problem. But the bathroom had a strong sewer smell as soon as I opened the door. It wasn't until the last day that I suddenly decided to check under the sink, and what I saw was utterly unsettling. I'm not a plumber, but I know it shouldn't be like this. I never expected it. There wasn't even a single cup in the room. Cleaning was only done once before check-in. A bottle of water was left before check-in. There was only enough toothpaste for one use, but thankfully a comb was provided. Before checking out, I typed the information into a translation app and went to the front desk to ask how to get a taxi more conveniently: whether to book through the Alipay app or to find a car at the mall entrance and negotiate the price. But the receptionist, through the translator, told me they could only call a taxi by phone. Later, while crossing the border, I successfully booked a taxi through the Alipay app and was able to cancel the order. This was very unpleasant; the receptionist had given me incorrect information. Ниже пишу аналогичный отзыв для русскоязычных пользователей: санузел (бывают такие гостиницы, в которых даже туалет на весь этаж, а душ так вообще на все два этажа. Что очень не удобно). выбор пал на гостиницу Лилия. не свезло с данным номером. Во-первых, в гостинице нет лифта, это может быть большим минусом для тех, кто с большим багажом, но мой номер был последним и располагался прямиком на лестнице, выходя из номера, всегда следует напоминать себе о том, чтобы не упасть с лестницы, что очень не понравилось мне. Во-вторых, большой минус из-за того, что я со своим ростом 163 см могла дотянуться прям до потолка своими руками. Ощущение, что ранее это было подсобное помещение из него сделали номер. меня минус в том, что в номере можно курить и в нем пахло некотином. Подоконник сделан из плитки из-за чего в номере холодно. Благо легкое и теплое одеяло меня спасало ночью. Открывая ванную комнату, боялась мыться, если вдруг намочу контакты бойлера и произойдет короткое замыкание. явно не попадет. Но минус в этой ванной комнате было то, что открывая ее пахло канализацией. день меня что-то сподвигло посмотреть под раковину и увидела тихий ужас. Я не сантехник, нод понимаю что так быть не должно. такого не додумалась бы. Нет кружек в номере хотя бы одной. воды оставили перед заселением. было то, что была расчестка для волос. о том, как лучше уехать на такси, заказать через приложение на Alipay или лучше подойти к торговому центру и договориться с ним. Но девушка через переводчик сообщила мне, что у них только по звонку заказывают такси. в таможне, я через приложение Alipay смогла вызвать такси и сделать отмену. Это неприятно. Девушка на ресепшене меня дезоинформировала.
