“Best hotel in West Harbin”

I really enjoyed my 5 weeks stay at the hotel. Great breakfast with Chinese and western selections. Long pool for swimming and well equipped gym. Far from the city center but very close to several shopping malls, restaurants and Harbin West station. Great service and friendly staff.

“Good apart from the collapsing desk”

The room was very comfortable. It comprised a smallish TV, coffee/tea/kettle, room safe, bottled water, desk, comfortable chair. There was also an ironing board and iron.

The room was very comfortable. It comprised a smallish TV, coffee/tea/kettle, room safe, bottled water, desk, comfortable chair. There was also an ironing board and iron. In common with many Chinese hotel rooms, there was a glass panel between the bedroom and the bathroom – it could be obscured using a blind if privacy was required. The large bed was firm. For reasons unknown, one of the windows had been left open, though there was no smell of smoke. Storage space was on the sparse side. The air conditioning was quiet and worked efficiently. The bathroom had large containers for shampoo, body wash and conditioner. There was a small body lotion container and paper tissues. Toothbrush/paste were provided. Towels were soft and replaced daily. Water was always hot and plentiful. One feature I liked were the bright lights over the bat, making it easier to see when cutting my toe nails. The shower was separate from the WC. Another feature I liked was the shower had a short drying line which was great, allowing my washing to drip in the shower rather than on the bathroom floor. I had breakfast, lunch and dinner at various times. They were all buffet style and had a wide range of western and Chinese dishes. The buffet restaurant tended to fill up quickly soon after opening. It was fun to see white robots travelling around, up and down the lifts though it was not clear what they were doing. The room was very near a large shopping mall and several good restaurants The room was good but for the desk “collapsing” – one end of it had been precariously balanced on part of a narrow ledge. I left the desk lamp on the floor hoping it might alert the maid to a problem but my hopes were in vain. The desk lamp was left on the floor. As a result, I gave the hotel 4 stars instead of 5.

This hotel was a standard Business Hotel in China. Clean rooms, good concierge, taxi rank, excellent buffet breakfast and meals , specialising in Sichuan and north eastern China cuisine, absolutely fabulous pool bathed in morning sunshine.( I often swam in it on my own ). It has a lovely park between the hotel and Wanda Mall, the big shopping complex which has an indoor ski run and skating rink. It is on the opposite side of town to the CBD. Buses go near here ( if you are game) and there are many other local restaurants both in and near the mall.

Large modern hotel, clean rooms fully fitted, great Chinese breakfast and hotpot buffet dinner, well equipped gym, pool, sauna, helpful friendly staff. Rating would be 5/5 ... BUT ... room temp sweating at 29C, change to Cool A/C is no difference, asked for small window which dropped to 25C but wind howling in under the door all night smelling of smoke. Broken English spoken at reception only, but no knowledge of wine or spirits at bar and out of stock of most items. Staff do try though. Hotel is 30 minutes across the river flat from Harbin CBD, not an issue for us with driver. Sunac Shopping Mall and indoor ski world arounTd the corner is worth a visit. Harbin Ice Festival is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, a magical night. he Siberian Tiger reserve was also great, and not as disturbing in the large parklands.
