Hotels in Harbin Central Avenue/Saint Sophia Cathedral/The Memorial Tower of Fig, Harbin

The room was very clean, and the facilities were quite new. The location is excellent, right next to Central Street, only a few minutes walk to Hongzhuan Street Morning Market, and the subway station is just across the street. The only downside is that there's no elevator.

To all my fellow travelers visiting Harbin, you *must* stay here! The service attitude is absolutely fantastic. When checking in, they even contacted my parents to confirm my companion's identity and ask for their consent since I'm a minor – that's some serious responsibility! The water is free, and in the lobby, they have iodine swabs, nail clippers, and all sorts of daily necessities. Plus, lots of foreigners stay here too; I ran into so many Russians, haha. When we checked out, my friend accidentally left something behind, and the front desk actually contacted us about it – what amazing service! It was a truly satisfying stay. The only minor downside is that some water tends to flow out from the shower area, but since it's a wet/dry separation, it's really quite good overall. ❤️ (And no, I'm not an advertorial!)

The hotel's front desk service was incredibly welcoming, and they even gave us a small gift. We were very satisfied with our room and were also granted a late check-out. The service overall was excellent. They provided a complimentary afternoon tea, and on the second floor, there's a Russian restaurant and a 'tieguodun' (iron pot stew) place, plus they offered discount coupons. There are many great restaurants and attractions around the hotel, and Central Street is beautiful. It was a really great experience!

The room size and facilities were great, and the TV was large. The location is excellent, making it very convenient to visit several attractions – you can just walk there. The subway station is also very close. The morning market right outside was the most pleasant surprise. The service was also very good.

Harbin in summer – you get what you pay for! The day before, I stayed near Central Street; that hotel wasn't cheap but it was small and damp, and had virtually no facilities (not throwing shade, just a comparison)... The next day, I decisively moved to Mercure! Oh my god, I felt completely relaxed and refreshed! Location: It's not far from St. Sophia Church and Central Street. Harbin Museum is right across the street, and it's close to the river, so you can walk to the Flood Control Memorial Tower or the Middle East Railway Bridge – all the must-see spots are within a leisurely stroll. Facilities: The lobby isn't huge, but it's comfortable and well-designed. The room layout is sensible, with a walk-in closet, a bathroom with separate wet and dry areas, electric curtains, and a Dyson hairdryer. The laundry room, gym, and restaurant are all on the 3rd floor. Hygienics: Perfect score. Service: Extremely satisfied. The staff are all very enthusiastic and polite. The front desk receptionists are particularly patient; besides basic check-in services, they patiently chatted with a guest who was constantly talking, engaging in genuine conversation back and forth. Double Lobby Buffet Afternoon Tea: A big plus, very popular with seniors and children. Warm Midnight Snack: Different snacks every day, highly recommended. You pick them up at the front desk based on the number of people in the room. Fingertip Fun, Creative De-stressing Perler Bead Activity: My child was obsessed with Perler beads, so I booked it without hesitation! The only minor issue was that some bead colors were out of stock; it would be best if they could be replenished promptly. Also, the space felt a bit cramped. For a hotel of this caliber, it would be more appealing to guests if they had a separate room for children's activities.

Choosing the right hotel in Harbin can save you a lot of hassle, and this Qiuguo Hotel truly impressed me with its unbeatable location. After staying here, I genuinely feel I made the right choice and highly recommend it to fellow travelers. The hotel is situated in the heart of Daoli district, just a few minutes' walk from Central Street. It's incredibly convenient for strolling the pedestrian street, admiring European-style architecture, and sampling various local snacks. After a day of sightseeing and enjoying Central Street's night views, you don't need a long taxi ride; you can simply take a leisurely stroll back to the hotel to rest, saving yourself the fatigue of commuting. Saint Sophia Cathedral is also very close to the hotel, within walking distance, so you can head out early for photos. Getting to the Flood Control Memorial Tower and the Songhua River banks is also very convenient, with plenty of bus stops nearby making travel to various attractions smooth. It's also near a subway station, making public transport for other scenic spots or for getting to and from the train station time-saving and effortless. The area around the hotel is very well-developed, with convenience stores, restaurants, and various shops readily available. You don't have to go far for meals or daily necessities. Despite being in a bustling commercial district, the hotel offers a quiet retreat; with the windows closed, the room is very peaceful and won't be disturbed by street noise, allowing for a good night's rest. Besides its outstanding location, the overall hotel experience is excellent. The rooms are clean and tidy, well-equipped, and the bedding is comfortable. The front desk staff are friendly, check-in and check-out are efficient, and they patiently answer any questions. For such a prime location on Central Street, the value for money is exceptional. For travelers to Harbin who prioritize convenient access, this hotel is definitely worth staying at.

The front desk staff, Yiwen, was very enthusiastic and helpful. The hotel environment is great, and the transportation is very convenient. Overall, we had a very good stay. We were traveling with family and had a happy time, and the breakfast was also very rich.

This is my second time visiting Harbin, and also my second time staying at the Country Inn & Suites. The location is truly excellent; Central Street is right outside, and it's a direct route to the Daoli Farmers Market and the riverside. The hotel provides breakfast and late-night snacks, though the variety of late-night snacks is a bit less compared to two years ago. The bedding is still very comfortable, especially the mattress which is just right in terms of firmness. A big thank you to the gentleman at the front desk, who was wearing glasses and a bit on the heavier side; he helped us resolve a room issue, saving us the trouble of moving luggage with seniors and children. Suggestion: Guests have mentioned that the dryer in the laundry room isn't very effective, taking several hours to dry clothes. After hearing this, we only washed our clothes and didn't use the dryer.

This hotel boasts an excellent location, situated above the Harbin Department Store (Harbin No. 1 Department Store). To the right when you step out, you'll find St. Sophia Church, and to the left, across the street, is Central Street. Downstairs is the Daoli Vegetable Market. Initially, I had booked another hotel on Shangzhi Street. After one night, the room was small, noisy, and very uncomfortable, so I promptly checked out and moved to Vienna International Hotel. The rooms and bathrooms at Vienna are spacious, and the rooms themselves are very clean and quiet. My original booking only included breakfast for two, but the front desk attendant, seeing that we were a family of four, kindly offered complimentary breakfast for our two children, which was a very thoughtful gesture. The breakfast spread was also quite rich, with both Chinese and Western options. Next time I'm in Harbin, I'll definitely head straight for this place.

I stayed for four nights, and the front desk even upgraded my room for free, which was excellent value for money. The mattress and pillows were just right – neither too soft nor too hard – so I slept very comfortably. All the staff were very polite, and the mini-fridge drinks were replenished daily. The breakfast wasn't lavish, but it had the basics like noodles and bread, enough to satisfy simple needs. The hotel is located on Central Avenue, near Zhaolin Park. It's not super close to the subway station, but there's a bus stop nearby, and ride-sharing services are convenient. The only downside was that my room was quite close to the adjacent folk music bar and staff work area, so I could hear music playing and loud conversations at night.
