Hotels With Bar in Heilongjiang, China

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.

23rd Residence Central Street Branch (4 days, 3 nights) 1. **Booking Period:** Peak season, February 7th - February 10th. 2. **Room Types & Rates Booked:** * 1 Holiday Family Room (includes double breakfast, window + bathtub) * 2 City View Twin Rooms (includes double breakfast, window + bathtub) 3. **Room Facilities:** The bathroom has a wet and dry separation, with the toilet and shower on opposite sides right after entering. The shower water pressure was decent, but the bathtub's water pressure was low, making it slow to fill. There's no handrail in the tub (inconvenient for elderly guests, potential slip hazard), and it's smaller than a standard bathtub; anyone over 165cm or with a larger build would find it quite cramped. Also, the bathroom design lacks space to put clothes or towels, which seems to be a design flaw – looks good, but not practical. 4. **Hotel Location:** It's a short walk into Central Street from the main entrance, a prime location. Even with the windows closed, it wasn't noisy, which didn't affect my sleep. I'm someone who has trouble falling asleep and is prone to insomnia, and I didn't find it loud at all. 5. **Hotel Breakfast:** We ate breakfast here all three mornings. For me, someone who only needs an egg, a bit of vegetables, and a cup of coffee in the morning, it was sufficient. However, for those who prefer a richer breakfast spread, it would be lacking. Most of the dishes contained Sichuan peppercorns, which isn't suitable for southerners who don't eat spicy food and can easily cause internal heat. On the first day, there was soy milk, but for the next two days, there was neither soy milk nor milk. I heard from the front desk that the breakfast is outsourced. Personally, I feel there's a significant disparity between the room rate and the breakfast quality; they don't match. 6. **Hotel Service Attitude:** Polite and tried their best to meet guest requests.

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!

If you're driving, I'd recommend taking the exit at Songbei (unless you want to photograph the start of G1), even though it's further, it avoids most of the city traffic, reducing the chance of getting stuck. The hotel environment is top-notch, and parking isn't an issue. You check in at the South Gate reception, and the North Gate leads directly to the south entrance/exit of the Harbin Ice and Snow World, about a 10-minute walk depending on your pace. It's very close to the Ferris wheel and the big stage, and I believe it's not far from the subway station either. Cleanliness is a given and was excellent. The room facilities are comprehensive. When ordering takeout, be aware of potential delays; in my case, there were no delivery riders available. I'm not sure if this was an isolated incident or a common problem. During the Ice and Snow Festival, room prices double, but for convenience, it's an excellent choice. Harbin Ice and Snow World Adult Ticket - Standard Price: I booked the tickets with my room, and it was significantly cheaper than buying them separately. Important: remember to select your time slot when booking!

The room was clean and tidy. The hotel is right on Central Street. The front desk service was excellent, and they even gave us a gift when we checked out. We were very satisfied with our stay.

This hotel boasts a beautiful, classic European style and magnificent architecture, all thoughtfully designed by the owner. It truly embodies grandeur and luxury. Many of the architectural details and antique pieces are imported from France, offering high artistic beauty and collection value. The overall service was exceptional, with parking available and a doorman to greet you. The mattress was incredibly comfortable. Around midnight, the WiFi seemed to cut out, but the room's soundproofing was excellent. The price was reasonable and offered great value for money – a wonderful experience. The shower area was fully automated, which the kids found fascinating. There were welcome fruits and afternoon tea, making us feel right at home. You can even order takeout, and a delivery robot brings it directly to your room. It's conveniently located just around the corner from Central Street's Qingzhi Hand Cream shop, which was very handy. When guests leave, there are taxis lined up, so there's no delay in travel time. Getting to the train station and home was easy. It only takes an hour to get to Harbin from our home, so it felt like staying right near our own doorstep. My little one loved the candies and chocolates from Central Street. The hotel front desk even gave my child some Russian candies when we left. In the evening, a staff member offered a special explanation of the antique architecture and art. It's truly a wonderful little escape from busy life, where you can temporarily forget your worries and even enjoy a deep sleep amidst a hectic schedule. I loved the welcome fruits, coffee, and complimentary drinks in the room. My child called it a 'fully automated high-end hotel' and absolutely loved it. The value for money is quite high; I highly recommend staying here.

The hotel is very easy to get to and located right where the Chinese Baroque street is. The staff are friendly and helpful, rooms are clean and does not smell. The amenities are well equipped. The beddings are clean and comfortable. The O.A Smith water dispenser was very convenient and easy to use. The lighting control was easy to use and scene settings were thoughtful. The room was equipped with Xiao Du AI voice control which was nice to have. Overall the experience was very pleasant. Would recommend.

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.

Having visited Harbin twice, I finally had the chance to stay at this exquisite and romantic hotel. I was truly satisfied, able to watch the sunrise/sunset over St. Sophia Cathedral with my beloved family from our hotel room. Upon entering the hotel, we were warmly greeted. While waiting to check in, we were treated to afternoon tea while enjoying the view of St. Sophia Cathedral. One of the male receptionists (I'm sorry, I forgot his name) was particularly helpful, as he could communicate with us in English. He meticulously explained everything to us and thoughtfully prepared toiletries for our children. The breakfast was also nice, The hotel's color scheme was soothing, and the room's mini-fridge contained complimentary bottled water and drinks. The staff even brought fruit to our room, and we received a complimentary gift upon check-out. I would definitely recommend that family and friends stay at least one night at the Manxin Hotel when visiting Harbin to experience this romantic hotel.

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!
