Hotele z: Pools w Heilongjiang, China

First-time stay: We were treated to complimentary afternoon tea with fruits and pastries, which is perfect for taking photos and checking in on social media. Cleanliness: Extremely clean. The bathroom is very spacious, and the upgraded room features a bathtub. Ambience: Baroque style with gorgeous glass features—undeniably stunning! As for the disposable slippers, they are much thicker than the ones at Ji Hotels. Service: Every staff member I met here was extremely warm and enthusiastic. The doorman even actively helped us with our luggage and opened the car door. It truly makes you feel at home; the service here is even more attentive than many hotels costing 800 to 900 yuan. I only stayed for one night, but any reasonable request you make is genuinely taken care of! They even proactively upgraded our room! Check-out came with a farewell souvenir: specialty candies. Location: Very close to Central Street (Zhongyang Street), just a few minutes' walk away. My husband and I also stayed at The Grand Mansion 1903 this trip, but we felt that Dayang Ritz offered service that was much more comforting and pleasant. We will definitely stay at Dayang Ritz again and recommend it to our family and friends.

Traveling to Harbin with my kids, we stayed at the Crowne Plaza Harbin Songbei and had an incredibly comfortable experience! The room facilities are very new, and the Premium Twin Room had plenty of space. It was spotless and the environment was beautiful and quiet, allowing us to sleep very soundly. The service deserves five stars; the staff were warm and attentive, taking great care of families with children. The surrounding area has convenient transportation, close to Sunac Land and the Ice and Snow World. Overall, it offers excellent value for money. Five-star recommendation, it will be my first choice when I come to Harbin again!

First off, our butler was incredibly enthusiastic! I'd asked in advance about activities and good photo spots, and they answered everything perfectly. My child had a blast, and I got some great photos too! They picked us up and dropped us off at the station upon arrival and departure, personally showed us around Snow Town, and even helped me with tickets for Bangchuishan. It was fantastic! The room was very clean and warm, with complete facilities. The bed was so big, I didn't have to worry about my child falling off. All three meals could be had at the hotel, which was very convenient, and they even treated us to frozen pears! My child said they want to come back to Snow Town next year and stay here again!

Traveling to Harbin? I wholeheartedly recommend this amazing hotel hidden away in Lao Daowai! 😭 It’s not your typical cookie-cutter chain hotel. It's a designer guesthouse transformed from the century-old Zhengyuanxing Silk Store, brimming with a classic Republican era retro vibe that feels like a time-filter in itself. Staying here in the 'Ice City' completely immerses you in the atmosphere! Nestled in the heart of the Chinese Baroque district, it occupies a standalone century-old building with green bricks, red walls, and wooden corridors. The courtyard is elegant and serene – you don't even need to go looking for sights. A casual snap anywhere in the hotel yields stunning photos with that Republican era ambiance 📸. Wear light-colored clothing or a qipao, and your photos will be absolutely divine! What truly captivated me was its exclusive and private feel. The entire hotel has only 26 guest rooms, limiting daily guests, so there's absolutely no noisy crowd. You can enjoy the peace and elegance of a century-old residence all to yourself. It's a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle, perfectly avoiding the throngs of tourists. Beneath its vintage exterior lies a thoroughly modern, top-tier experience! All rooms feature smart home devices, smart toilets, and oversized bathtubs with great views. There's a Dyson hairdryer, a seven-setting constant temperature direct drinking water system, and a whole-house soft water system. After a shower, your skin feels wonderfully soft and smooth – the attention to detail is truly exceptional ✨. Each room has a unique layout and view. The four-season themed rooms are particularly distinctive, with abundant natural light and spaciousness. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, and the soundproofing is superb. At night, it's wonderfully quiet, allowing you to sleep undisturbed until you naturally wake up. The service is impeccable! There's a 24-hour dedicated private butler, attentive and meticulous throughout your stay, ready to assist with any request. Just bring your bags and check in; you won't have to worry about a thing, making for a truly blissful vacation. The breakfast truly amazed me 💯! It's a nine-compartment Northeastern specialty breakfast served in a Republican-era style restaurant. The variety changes daily, featuring everything from Harbin red sausage and diced Guobaorou (sweet and sour pork) to special pickles. One bite unlocks the authentic local flavor of the 'Ice City', making for a very ceremonial dining experience. The location is absolutely unbeatable! Step out and you're right on a century-old street with a cluster of retro buildings. Downstairs, you'll find all sorts of authentic Harbin old-brand eateries, making it easy to stroll and eat to your heart's content. It’s also super close to Central Street and St. Sophia Cathedral. Transportation is convenient, so you don't have to rush around when exploring. If you're traveling to Harbin and want to avoid the crowds while enjoying a premium, quality stay, this century-old guesthouse hidden in Lao Daowai is definitely the top choice! Immerse yourself in the gentle charm and rich heritage of Harbin's old architecture. It's truly a hidden gem of accommodation that you'll fondly remember long after your visit! ✨

An Unforgettable Stay at AOLUGUYA! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My wife and I had a wonderful two-night stay at AOLUGUYA. Everything was exceptional, from the beautiful cloud views to the delicious breakfast and delightful afternoon tea. A special appreciation to Polly, who was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. I would also like to thank the lovely lady who served us during afternoon tea and specially prepared a delicious grape tea for me. It was such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more memorable. The atmosphere, hospitality, and attention to detail were truly outstanding. We enjoyed every moment and would definitely love to return. Highly recommended for couples looking for a beautiful and relaxing getaway!

Ever since staying on the 79th floor once, I've developed a bit of an obsession with high-floor views. Of course, I also picked this place because the hotel is relatively new, and I’d never stayed at a Ritz-Carlton before. I booked a City View King Room to stay within my budget. I skipped breakfast thinking I'd check out the local morning market instead, but dinner portions every night were so huge that I never had to worry about going hungry in the morning anyway. The room also came with a capsule coffee machine; although the pod selection wasn't huge, it was plenty enough for me. At check-in, I mentioned that I didn't need full housekeeping during my stay—just taking out the trash and restocking amenities would do. Yet, something was always missed every single time. The craziest part was encountering a missing shower gel for the very first time. On the second day, when I went to the front desk to extend my check-out by two hours and recut my room key, I brought it up directly. Still, by that evening, there was no shower gel. I guess their Diptyque amenities are strictly rationed per day—use more than the quota, and you're on your own. On the other hand, they were surprisingly generous with bottled water, which makes me think different staff members handled different tasks. Also, turndown service only happened on the first night and never again after that. I figured the complimentary bedtime drink was just the local ”Harbin Frozen Pear Drink,” so I didn't bother bringing it up. That said, I really loved the heated towel rack—a huge plus for someone like me who likes hand-washing small laundry items. The dual-layer motorized curtains were great, the lighting controls were user-friendly, and I really liked the overall interior design. At the end of the day, I chose this hotel myself, so it is what it is. Oh, and my check-in date happened to be my birthday, but there were no greetings or recognition at all. Ironically, China Eastern Airlines surprised me with a plush toy and a handwritten card. Truly a ”unique” level of service here.

Facilities: Very good. Since it's the off-season, some pools are under maintenance and not all are open, but there are still enough to use. Cleanliness: Very clean. The water in the hot spring pools is crystal clear. Service: All the staff I encountered were very warm and friendly. The waitress selling drinks and ice cream in the hot spring area was especially thoughtful. I accidentally bumped and injured my leg, and she proactively helped me get ice and a towel for a cold compress, and kept asking if I needed any further assistance with genuine concern.

Service: This was my first time experiencing hotel service that felt as attentive as Haidilao's – it truly felt like coming home. The staff's constant refrain was, 'Just tell us what you need.' Someone helped with my luggage, breakfast was a relaxed affair, and when I asked if I could heat up food I brought, the response was, 'Of course, just wait.' Someone specifically came to my room, took my food to warm it up, and then brought it back on a plate. I genuinely felt the 'warmth' of their service! Comfort: Their beds and pillows were just right – not too soft, not too firm. I really felt the comfort of a boutique Atour hotel, thumbs up! 👍🏻 Photography: Even breakfast here was a treat. The beautifully presented small dishes were perfect for photos, and the view outside the window was stunning too.

A Heartfelt Review of Victories Hotel, Harbin We are two ladies over 50 visiting Harbin for a meeting. We chose Victories Hotel based on a friend’s recommendation, and we’re so glad we did. Even with the language barrier, the service was TRULY EXCELLENT. We experienced several wonderful touches: the concierge helped collect my parcel and walked with me to carry all the heavy items; the receptionists were excellent at helping us book a Didi and explaining how many pieces of luggage we had; and when there was a problem with a Taobao parcel, the concierge called the courier to explain the location. Breakfast was international, and the noodles were delicious. I left Victories Hotel on 29 September at 6:00 AM Harbin time, and the Taobao parcel arrived after I had already left for the airport. I told the seller to leave it with the receptionist and concierge because they had been so helpful, and I was very grateful. (I dont know whether this possible as a Thank You Gift). There are just a few small suggestions: On 26 September, when we asked the gentleman at reception to order a Didi—we were in a hurry—communication was difficult, so he only told us to hail a taxi on the street. The drinking glasses were not washed. The hotel’s location and name in English and Mandarin may not match, so the courier could not find the hotel, and some of our ordered items could not be delivered. Overall, we highly recommend Victories Hotel for anyone traveling to Harbin.

Staying at Qushe B&B in Yabuli for a summer getaway was absolutely delightful! The guesthouse is surrounded by lush greenery, and when you open the window, all you see are mountains and forests. The air is so fresh, it feels like a natural oxygen bar. The room was tastefully decorated, and both the AC and fan worked great. I didn't even need the AC at night; the mountain breeze was wonderfully cool. The owner also recommended some nearby hiking trails, where the streams gurgled along, and the scenery was unbelievably beautiful. Breakfast included freshly picked blueberries and farm-fresh eggs – healthy and delicious. In the evening, I relaxed in the yard, stargazing and listening to the sounds of insects. It was so incredibly peaceful. I'll definitely be back next summer for another vacation. This place is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life!
