★★★★ 9.6 (4,070 reviews)

"I checked in quite late and went straight to bed. The next morning, when I pulled back the covers, I found oil stains on the sheets, like from spicy strips (I hadn't ordered any takeout or eaten anything). It really made me wonder if the bedding had actually been changed. The carpet wasn't just dirty; I noticed something shiny on it. On closer inspection, it was a needle. Luckily, I was wearing my own slippers; the disposable hotel slippers are so thin, it would have easily pricked my foot."

Harbin Central Street Huate Hotel (Sofia Church) Hotels in Harbin

Harbin Central Street Huate Hotel (Sofia Church)

"Honestly, the five-star rating goes to Xuebao, the concierge in the lobby. He was incredibly enthusiastic and made us feel so welcome and at home from the moment we arrived in Harbin. In contrast, the front desk staff were quite lackluster. The hotel's location is great, right next to Central Street, but the facilities are a bit dated, and the room cleaning wasn't particularly thorough. The room itself is very spacious, but the room rates are a mystery – they fluctuate constantly. The first time I booked, it was over 400 yuan, but after booking, I saw it dropped to just over 300, so I promptly canceled and rebooked. Later, due to a change in plans, I wanted to extend for one night, and the price was over 600 yuan. For this hotel, a price of over 600 without breakfast feels a bit expensive. The concierge's service really made up for the shortcomings."

Mudong Youth Hostel (Harbin Central Street Branch) ★★

It’s within easy walking distance of Central Street, making it very convenient for exploring the city. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable.
