This hotel boasts an excellent location near the Songhua River. The staff were incredibly warm and provided great service, even offering a complimentary afternoon tea. Our whole family was very satisfied with our stay. There are tons of restaurants nearby, and it's right next to Central Street, and very close to St. Sophia Cathedral, which is easily reachable on foot. Not bad at all!

This hotel's service was fantastic! My check-in was scheduled for 2 PM, but they called me at 10 AM to pick up my room card. They let me store my luggage and even had it delivered to my room. They also gave me a free room upgrade to room 206, which had great natural light and a smart toilet. Besides bottled water, they provided a fruit platter, a coffee machine, and capsule coffee. They offered two tickets to the Fairy Tale Museum (worth 40 yuan each), and I could choose outfits from the first floor to take photos in the room or lobby, with no time limit or restrictions on the number of outfits. They also included four travel photoshoots (appointments needed in advance). The hundred-year-old elevator was free to use, and upon departure, they even gave me a small gift bag of chocolates. The location is superb – just two subway stops from Harbin Station and a 10-minute walk. It's right next to Central Street, a 5-minute walk to St. Sophia Church, Red Brick Morning Market, and Zhaolin Park. The Baroque street, Flood Control Monument, and Stalin Park are all less than 2 km away. Taxis can pick you up and drop you off right at the entrance. I'll definitely be back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Stay! We had a wonderful time at this hotel. The location couldn’t be better—perfect for exploring the city. The hotel itself has a bit of old-school charm, but everything is spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The staff is incredibly friendly and personal, always making sure you feel welcome. A huge highlight for us was the playroom for children. It’s not just a room—there’s actual staff looking after the kids, which gave us some rare relaxation time. Huge thumbs up! Breakfast is a massive buffet with plenty of choice. And if you book the Horizon Club, you get free drinks and food all day long. Absolutely worth it. We’ll definitely be back!

Harbin Central Avenue/Saint Sophia Cathedral/The Memorial Tower of Fig Harbin|4.05km from city center
The service here is excellent, from booking to the front desk and restaurant staff, everything was impeccable. The Chinese restaurant waitress, Miss Xu, was especially warm and professional. This is much better than the Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, where I noticed foreign guests were prioritized with excessive deference – that wasn't the case here in Harbin. The Ritz-Carlton Harbin's service was truly attentive and responsive to every request, hats off to them! 👍 There were a few minor downsides. The smart toilet seat, if you sit on it for too long, the lid taps your back. 🤭 The first room they assigned me was quite far from the elevator, which I had requested since I'm a light sleeper. However, after the staff showed me to the room, I got lost trying to find the elevator again after turning a few corners, haha! So I went back to my room and called the front desk. They then upgraded me to a river-view room closer to the elevator. But as soon as I entered, there was a slight lingering smell of renovation near the entrance. For someone as sensitive to smells as I am, it was quite impactful, but I really didn't want to bother them again. Sure enough, I woke up with a headache in the middle of the night, quickly took some medicine, and felt better after an early morning walk. Breakfast runs until 10:30 AM, but by 9:40 AM, the hot milk was already gone. A kind female manager went to the coffee machine to get me a cup, as it would take 7 minutes to provide more hot milk. My suggestion is that if breakfast is until 10:30 AM, they shouldn't stop replenishing items early just because there are fewer people. This will only lead to even fewer guests over time. I even bought 14 more breakfast vouchers, by the way. The quality of the breakfast ingredients is excellent, which is why I bought 10 breakfast vouchers. The gym equipment is great, and the service there is also very enthusiastic. The lighting in the swimming pool area at night was a bit dim. Since it's a water environment, dim lighting can be dangerous and make it difficult to spot issues. My friend suddenly got leg cramps, luckily a coach came over and pulled her out. The downside is that there are two lifeguard observation chairs, but no lifeguards. There's a duty coach who occasionally comes in to check, and sometimes goes to the gym to teach. Even though the water depth is 1.35 meters, a swimming pool, by regulation, must have lifeguards on the chairs. Accidents can happen in water, so safety is paramount. Overall, my stay at the Ritz-Carlton Harbin was an excellent experience, and I'll definitely recommend it to any friends visiting.

This hotel's location is truly excellent, right next to a Line 2 subway exit, making getting around super convenient! The hotel facilities are complete, and you can see the quality in the details. Although the hotel is older, it's very comfortable to stay in. The staff are also very enthusiastic. The biggest surprise was the complimentary afternoon tea; the pastries were exquisite and delicious. Coming back after a long day to enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake instantly made the fatigue disappear. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I visit!

The location is very close to the Harbin High Speed Train Station. Highly recommended from those taking the train to Harbin. The hotel is clean, with warmer and washing facilities. I get my clothes dry daily so that I don't need to bring a lot of clothes to change. Less than 200 metres to the local train station and less than 1 km to the busy Central Walking Street. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby as well. The place is not rowdy and safe to walk. Easy to get Didi hailing vehicle service.

Harbin Railway Station/Gogol Street/The first affiliated hospital of H Harbin|0.25km from city center
This hotel truly made me feel so welcome and cared for. Manager Manqi from the front desk called me a day in advance to confirm my check-in needs, and upon arrival, she was incredibly warm and attentive, fulfilling all my requests. On the first day of the ***** New Year, we wanted tangyuan (sweet glutinous rice balls), as is customary in the south, and even though we asked last minute, they immediately found a pot and cooked a bowl for us. On the evening of the first day, all the shops outside were closed, and we couldn't find anything to eat. When we returned to the hotel, they had prepared dumplings and tangyuan. Manager Xiao Shi stayed late, making sure to cook tangyuan and dumplings for guests who hadn't had dinner. They really go above and beyond to meet any need you have. Of all the hotels I've stayed in, this is by far the most thoughtful. Everyone here is so warm and attentive.

A huge shout-out to the Executive Lounge team; they provided attentive and thoughtful service from check-in, through afternoon tea, dinner, and breakfast the next morning, making us feel right at home. The room had a great view of the Songhua River, and overall, it was a very comfortable stay. I'll definitely be back if I get the chance!

Harbin Central Avenue/Saint Sophia Cathedral/The Memorial Tower of Fig Harbin|3km from city center
The hotel is tucked away on Tongjiang Street, just behind Central Avenue, about an 8-10 minute walk away. The location is excellent, with St. Sophia Church, Stalin Park, the Songhua River, and Parkson Shopping Center all nearby! It's an absolutely fantastic spot. There are also plenty of supermarkets and restaurants around. I highly recommend the 'Tie Guo Dun' (iron pot stew) next door – specifically the 'xiaoguo hubing' (small pot stew with pancakes) – which was a recommendation from the hotel's front desk staff. For a 'Southern potato' like me, the flavor might be a little strong, but it's really good! The chicken feet were so tender they melted in your mouth. From the lobby to the rooms, there's a faint floral scent. For a family trip, the room size is perfectly adequate for a family of three. Details like toothbrushes and shampoo are all provided, and if you need anything, just call the front desk and they'll bring it right away – the service is superb! The rooms are never cold; the temperature is just right for sleeping at night! It was my first time experiencing the heating system here in Northeast China, and it was very comfortable! For breakfast, we had the hotel's in-house breakfast, which is Russian cuisine on the first floor. We chose the fried noodles, and the noodles had a perfect texture. Everyone should give it a try! The hotel staff described it as 'New Chinese Russian cuisine'! It was my first time trying it and it was delicious!! Arriving in Harbin, I immediately felt the snow falling! Very lucky! I took so many photos of the snowy scenery!

This was my first time visiting Harbin, coming from the south, and I was genuinely surprised by how cold it was! When I was checking in, I blurted out, 'Harbin is so cold!', and the front desk staff immediately started chatting with me about it. They were incredibly warm and helpful, suggesting I buy some cotton shoes and a warm jacket because my current windbreaker wouldn't cut it. The hotel room facilities were excellent and the environment was elegant. I really loved this hotel and will definitely be back!

What an incredible hotel this is. Our stay has been absolutely 5 star. The staff are incredibly helpful. I haven't remembered all their names but Suyu at the front desk was so helpful in ensuring we got settled in on arrival. It was early and cold when we arrived but this hotel provided us a warm haven. This hotel has all the 5 star features you would expect and more. The multiple hot pools are a highlight. The outside heated pool was amazing during the snow. The staff helped us navigate the city buses easily (the gentleman at the front desk was also great). We will return to this hotel as soon as we can. Harbin is cold but the hotsprings ♨️ are warm

Stayed for 3 nights in an executive suite with panoramic views of the Songhua River – super convenient for getting around. A special shout-out to the hotel staff: after leaving the Harbin Ice and Snow World, there were so many people waiting for taxis, and I was worried about a long wait to get back. But a staff member told me about the X3 bus, which goes directly to the hotel entrance from the exit! The service was also excellent. At breakfast, there was always a manager helping with coffee and providing snacks like candied hawberries. Plus, the executive lounge on the 27th floor had a continuous supply of snacks and drinks all day.

Harbin Central Avenue/Saint Sophia Cathedral/The Memorial Tower of Fig Harbin|2.5km from city center
The location is excellent, just a three-minute walk to Central Street. The breakfast set menu offers no choices, and honestly, it's more about presentation than taste, which was just so-so. The breakfast could definitely be more varied; the steak mentioned in previous reviews is no longer available. There's a free afternoon tea, but there's hardly anything to eat. Perhaps it's because the peak season in Harbin is over, and they're cutting costs in the off-season, which is understandable given the incredibly good off-season prices. As an added bonus, it's acceptable. The building is an old Russian-style structure, so the slow drainage in the rooms is unavoidable. Overall, the staff provides great service, the location is good, and it's clean. Considering the off-season price, which is comparable to a budget hotel, I highly recommend it.

Traveling to Harbin with my child, our first stop was the Xana Hotel (Harbin Central Street Sophia Church). The hotel's location is perfect, situated in the middle-north section of Central Street, making it incredibly convenient for getting anywhere. Zhaolin Park is just 100 meters east, across the street, and the main Central Street is 50 meters west. St. Sophia Cathedral is about 500-800 meters away on foot. The hotel lobby was super cozy, offering a stamp check-in and afternoon tea. The staff provided excellent service. Since I hadn't planned my trip and decided to go last minute, I asked about Harbin's specialties. They even added me on WeChat and sent me a guide to dining, entertainment, and attractions around the hotel. The breakfast was incredibly rich, meeting all the nutritional needs (meat, eggs, milk, fruit) required for traveling with a child. On the day of check-out, I decided last minute to take some travel photos with my child near St. Sophia, which delayed our check-out time. The staff kindly extended our check-out until 2 PM for free. All in all, our first stop in Harbin made us feel so warm. If you're staying around Central Street, Xana is definitely the best choice!!! I've already recommended it to many friends since returning to Beijing. 😙😙😙

Choosing the right hotel for this Harbin trip was absolutely crucial! I'm definitely giving a five-star rating to the Atour Hotel (Bingxue Big World Longchuan Road Metro Station). The room experience was fantastic! Cleanliness and tidiness are a given, and the bedding was so soft and comfortable; sleeping on it was incredibly restorative. After a long day of exploring, just lying down felt incredibly therapeutic. Additionally, the hotel's public areas are very stylishly designed. The lobby's book bar is perfect for reading and relaxing, and there's a laundry room and gym, all fully equipped – the attention to detail is truly impressive. This stay far exceeded my expectations; I couldn't find a single fault with the location, service, or room quality! Next time I'm in Harbin, I'll definitely choose this Atour again. I highly recommend it to all my friends planning a trip to Harbin!

Our first night was in a standard king room, and we found it a bit odd to have a large round bathtub right in the middle of the room. The soundproofing was terrible; it sounded like the next-door neighbors were showering right in our ears. We mentioned it to the concierge, who immediately offered to switch rooms, and we ended up getting an upgrade. Both the rooms and the lobby are located on higher floors, which is the most inconvenient thing about this type of hotel. Every time you want to go in or out, it's a bit of a hassle. Although the hotel has 8 high-speed elevators, it still took about 5 minutes to get out for meals or the gym. However, this is apparently due to local government regulations requiring high-end hotels to occupy higher floors, so I guess it's not really the hotel's fault. Overall, the hotel staff seemed to be trying very hard, and the place has a lot of character, so I'll give it a good review.

Wanted to give my thanks to Joe for picking us up in the airport and helping us all around. He is naturally helpful and kind. Well the hotel is grand. It is old but they maintain it. We booked suite room and it is very spacious and comfortable. Bed is just fine and huge bathroom. They make sure to clean our room every day. Location wise is excellent . Close to many malls, travel time to sofia church and some other famous attractions is about 25mins. Just the food selection in this hotel is limited. The chinese restaurant seems close or fully booked all the time and the japanese restaurant is close the whole duration of our week. Hotel says because its off season. I didn't take pictures to share but We definitely gonna book this hotel when we come back to harbin.

Excellent! Because spring has arrived, Harbin is gradually reducing its heating supply, but the hotel's service was incredibly thoughtful. From the moment I walked in, they offered portable heaters and other equipment. During check-in at the front desk, I was lucky enough to be told I'd received a room upgrade. Later, I found my room was on the shaded side with not-so-ideal natural light. The guest services team came to speak with me and upgraded my room again. I feel incredibly lucky!

I arrived late at night and the receptionist very helpful. Even though i cannot speak chinese and receptionist do not speak english, he always ask Siri on his phone to make sure everything go smoothly. The receptionist even help me buy bread and drinks at the vending machine that requires Chinese phone number. Room is spacious, clean. All items working well, just lack of internet connection maybe my room located at the end of the alley. The best part, breakfast included too in the room rate. So you don’t have to go outside find breakfast during this cold weather 😃

Went with my husband during the off-peak season, and the price was unbelievably low again after using points, only about eighty yuan. The location is excellent, very close to the museum. If you turn left when you go out, there's a spot that's not listed on maps, and the night view there is stunning. It's clean and hygienic, and the front desk staff provided superb service. Highly recommended, great value for money. There's also a morning market nearby worth checking out.

Having traveled to many cities across China and stayed in various star-rated hotels, the Habsburg Hotel in Harbin (opposite Friendship Palace) stands out as the best in terms of service (hands down) and overall quality. From the welcoming staff to the front desk, restaurant servers, and even the parking security, everyone exuded a warm and comfortable vibe. I'd recommend all star-rated hotels and guesthouses nationwide take a lesson from them on what real service means, especially those 'X-dens', 'X-tons', 'X-huas', and 'X-las' out there. You should all go learn! If you think there are too many positions to learn from, start with the front desk. Try being a regular guest just once, and I guarantee your multi-star hotels will be blushing with shame.

Harbin Central Avenue/Saint Sophia Cathedral/The Memorial Tower of Fig Harbin|2.08km from city center
Facilities: There's a restaurant on the first floor that offers breakfast. The selection isn't huge, but it's perfectly adequate. The room was spacious and had a large window. There were no strange odors, and the bathroom was a good size with a separate wet and dry area. Ambiance: Clean and tidy, with lively decor. The signature Ibis red makes it feel warm and inviting. Service: The young lady at the front desk had a smile that could melt anyone (and I'm a woman!). She was a major highlight of the hotel – so enthusiastic and empathetic. When she saw my mom and I were sharing a bed, she proactively upgraded us to a twin room, which was also very spacious, and even gave us complimentary egg tarts upon check-in. Her proactive spirit and warm service made our stay truly enjoyable! 😀 Hygiene: The hotel maintained the usual Ibis standard of cleanliness. There was no hair on the room floor, and both the toilet and shower areas were excellent and very spacious.

Five-star review! The hygiene was excellent, and the environment was great. It's super convenient for getting around, very close to the subway. Our check-in experience was fantastic. My friend and I came for a trip and definitely didn't pick the wrong hotel. The bed was really soft, and the room was spacious and bright. There's even an amusement park within the resort, so if you get tired of staying in the hotel, you can go wander around – it's all very interesting. The entire park has a European castle architectural style, which is beautiful and perfect for photos. Plus, all the staff were wonderful, with very friendly service. There's also a shuttle bus within the park, making it easy to get around. The breakfast was incredibly rich and awesome! We even happened to catch a newly opened venue within the park and went to check it out – it was so dreamy and huge, you could even do cosplay! It was amazing. No matter where you went, the staff were always super nice. 👍

This hotel is in a very convenient location. It is very close to the main interchange between the first and second lines of the subway, meaning that you can get to major tourist destinations (like Ice and Snow World and ZhongYang street) very easily.  The staff are very helpful. They helped us use the coffee machine in the foyer and recommended good restaurants. They were also good when I was feeling sick. They gave us lollies to give me energy and information for the hospital.    The hotel was very clean, had free laundry machines and had a very inviting lobby. The lobby had an assortment of warm drinks, some sweets, and snacks. It was also nice and warm, especially compared to the frigid temperatures outside. There was also quite a bit of comfortable seating to rest on.  If I ever return to Harbin, I will definitely stay here again.
