"A truly excellent hotel! Choosing the right hotel is the perfect start to a pleasant trip, and selecting the Crystal Orange Hotel for my Harbin visit was a fantastic decision. From the moment we arrived, the front desk attendant greeted us warmly and proactively upgraded our room. The room itself was clean, tidy, and odor-free, with a sensible design that made for a comfortable stay. We were welcomed with fruit, coffee, and black tea, and the mini-fridge was stocked with free beverages and plenty of complimentary Bama mineral water. What truly stands out is the hotel's prime location: it's backed by Central Street, right next to Madieer Western Restaurant, and surrounded by many well-known Chinese eateries. A short walk brings you to Saint Sophia Cathedral, and we enjoyed watching the night view from the church square every evening – it was very relaxing. Furthermore, the breakfast was incredibly rich and delicious, with so many varieties we couldn't even try them all. The service was exceptional; they were always eager to help with any request. We spent three wonderful nights here, and if I return, I will definitely choose this hotel again. Finally, a big thank you to all the hotel staff. I wish the hotel prosperous business and continued success!"
