I have stayed here twice now finding the Shangri-La in Harbin can be on the expensive side at short notice. The one good thing for the Holiday Inn is the central location near the historic center of Harbin so I recommend this hotel for vacation travelers. Also, all taxi drivers know where it is. Unfortunately it is not new and... More

Compared to the many Holiday Inns I stayed across China, this one is rather mediocre. The room is relatively small. The bathroom is kind of small. There's only two staff available for checking out, so you have to ensure you give yourself sometime so you won't be late for your appointment. Having said that, it's still one value for money...

Nice hotel wonderfully situated downtown - close to a large shopping Plaza and major pedesterian street. Breakfasts OK, Chinese Restaurant has a nice selection of local food and was well prepared. 1st floor Red Lion Pub had live music that was pretty good. Place was rocking on the Saturday night we visited during the Ice Festival. Rooms are standard HI... More

We stayed in this hotel while visiting the Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival. Location is excellent at the start of Zhong Yang street, the walking street leading to the river. We had rooms on the Executive Floor, which looked like they has just been refurbished. The rooms were clean and modern. Good beds, recently renovated bathrooms with large... More

THe hotel is onthe opposite side of the pedestrian street of the city, the heart of the city with many shops restaurants and several beautiful buildings, in "russian" or north Europe style. All staff speaks English in good way, they are warm and friendly. Room are spaciuos, clean with good furnitures and details. BReakfast offers a widw choice of both... More

The location of the hotel is superb at the end of the pedestrian street. You can access restaurants and a supermarket by taking a short walk. The hotel is quite traditional, rooms are pleasant but older style. Don't expect a fresh "Holiday Inn Express" type breakfast, things are very traditional and old-fashioned Chinese style. I'm sure it's better than a... More

Nice and warm. Also clean and refurbished. Good central location near the pedestrian shopping street. Breakfast is ok and the dining room could be cleaner. The hotel is a little noisy in the rooms. The room service was prompt though many items were missing from the menu. We also enjoyed the english pub in the hotel where the service was... More

As has been noted before, this hotel boasts a really good location, though I personally wouldn't rave about the pedestrian street. Still, it is nice to walk along a nearly traffic-less street and certainly a rarity in China. What I found most pleasing about the hotel was that the room was a good size, quite modern and clean, and the... More

We stayed 4 nights while here for the Ice and Snow Festival the hotel is in a great location at the top of Zhongyang pedestrian street, you only have to walk out the front door and cross the road to start your journey down to the frozen wonderland of Songhua river. St Sophia Church is only 15 - 25 minutes... More
