I have to make this review before the winter ends because this homestay deserves all the guests coming to snow town and snow valley. The hospitality of the owners is beyond imagination, i’m not kidding! They have been extremely helpful in guiding us throughout our travel to snow town and snow valley. We communicate using a translator but it still feels like speaking with a friend. Don’t hesitate to ask questions regarding your trip and the activities that you want to do.
As for us, we booked a 3d/2n stay with them. They helped us maximize our itinerary as well. 2 nights before our tour, the owner gave us the number of bus driver. We paid the bus tickets in advance.
Day 1
8am-2pm - Bus from Harbin to Snow Town (Xuexiang). We left our luggages in the bus. Tickets bought at the entrance. Dont worry about prebooking. Play in Snow Town until 8pm.
8pm - Bus ride from Snow Town to Snow Valley. The bus driver already knows where to drop us. At the bus stop, we were fetched by car and brought to the inn (~2 min ride).
Day 2
9am-4pm Play at Guoxiongling Bear Ridge. For 400rmb/pax, we went up the mountain by snowmobile. We played banana boat drift, snowmobile, some went skiing and a super amazing view! There were also fun group activities! :)
Note: The owner gave us drone videos of ourselves and took pictures of us. He also brought his insta360 and gave us copies of group activities videos. You can also use this during the banana boat drift which would look awesome with insta360.
The owner is also a licensed ski instructed but my husband didn’t want to ski so there’s that. Haha.
We went down around 3pm by snowmobile. At 5pm, we ordered dinner from their restaurant. The Northeastern Fish Stew is amazing!! Try it and thank me later.
After dinner we did the hot water in ice trick for Free! We also had fun talking about traveling and sharing stories of our pets, while having tea, frozen persimmons, peach and sunflower seeds. 🥰
Day 3
Departure date. Bus leaves at 6am and 9am. They booked the bus for us back to harbin. I wish we could have stayed longer!
Room we stayed had a heated Kang bed. The floor had heating too. Toiletries are complete with indoor slippers. Breakfast serving is large! The room is clean, with water heater. On top of that, it’s 1/10th of the price of snow town accommodations. Snow village offers a unique experience away from the glittery lights and sounds of snow town. It is both peaceful and charming.
Thank you Liu Bo and your husband for the awesome stay we had. We truly appreciate it! Thank you for the surprise and gifts as well! :) We hope to see you soon again!

Having stayed at hotels in both Xuexiang and Xuegu, this guesthouse in Xuegu is definitely the king of value for money! Let me tell you about its advantages:
1) Underfloor heating throughout the entire house. Every corner of the room was incredibly warm, which is super important in places like Xuegu and Xuexiang where nighttime temperatures can drop to minus twenty degrees Celsius.
2) The owner is such a warm, chatty, and responsible young woman. As soon as I arrived, she greeted me with a big handful of frozen pears and persimmons. The next day, when she took me up Xiongling (Bear Ridge), I accidentally dropped my gloves while taking photos and my hands were freezing stiff. Without a word, she gave me her own down gloves and endured the cold herself on the way down the mountain. It was truly touching!
As for the drawbacks, the room facilities are quite basic, but they do provide essential toiletries like toothbrushes, disposable towels, shower gel, etc. Besides lacking the unique advantage of snow mushroom houses, Xuegu is still great for playing in the snow and doesn't feel as overly commercialized as Xuexiang. If you're not specifically looking to check out the snow mushroom houses, you might want to consider guesthouses in Xuegu, haha.

Dil888The guesthouse owner is very attentive and friendly. They gave you the feelings like you are staying at your own hometown. They are Muslim friendly as they prepared breakfast using seperate utensils and treat you like their own family. There is also Makanan Melayu menu that they prepared for Muslim if you want to eat for dinmer or lunch. The price is affordable. At the guesthouse, there is a poster of snow activities that you can do written in English translation. Just point to what do you want to do and the owner will directly arrange somebody to pick you up and drop off to the guesthouse again once activity is done. I did the ski playground activity and Wu Song Ling , both of the experience is very great. If you travel solo, then this guesthouse is perfect for you as they really caring and attentive to make sure you are safe and comfortable. I also got to eat frozen fruit given by the owner. No need to worry if you cannot speak chinese as the owner is equipped with translation devices. The owner can arrange the bus to come from Harbin City to Snow Valley, and also when you want to go back. The bus drop directly infront of the guesthouse with the owner already waiting to help with your luggage.

Guest UserThe hotel's location is excellent, just a 2-minute walk to Central Avenue, and very close to the Flood Control Memorial Tower and Zhaolin Park. There are many well-established restaurants nearby. The hotel is very clean, the staff are super friendly, and the facilities are new. The only minor drawback is that the dryer in the laundry room isn't very powerful.

Guest UserThe hotel has a very convenient location, within walking distance of Subway Line 3 (Friendship Palace Hotel Exit 2), Zhongyang Street (Central Avenue), the Morning Market, Songhua River, St. Sophia Cathedral, and Manhattan Mall. The area is surrounded by many restaurants and convenience stores, making it easy to find food and daily necessities.
The lady owner speaks English very well and is very responsive, kind, and sweet. She even surprised me with a cake for my birthday. The staff are helpful and welcoming, and they invited us to a Christmas Eve party with free food, which made our stay extra special.
The room is quiet and spacious, with free bottled water provided daily. What I liked the most was the large window, perfect for people-watching and enjoying the view of cars passing by 😆. Overall, it was a comfortable and pleasant stay. 💕

Staying at this B&B in Yabuli, the moment I walked into the room, I was immediately charmed by the classic Northeastern floral bedding. The room was spotlessly clean, the pillows and duvets neatly folded, and the heating was cranked up – it was freezing outside, but inside I was sweating in just a t-shirt! The comfort was unparalleled. The owner pays attention to every single detail; staying here isn't just about getting a good night's sleep, it's about experiencing genuine Northeastern hospitality.

This stay completely exceeded my expectations—it was the most delightful surprise of my trip! The hotel's location is incredibly convenient; it's just a few minutes' walk to the subway, surrounded by shopping areas and great restaurants, making travel and dining effortless. The front desk service was warm and professional, check-in was efficient, and they even proactively shared local sightseeing tips. When I casually mentioned needing a charging cable, they immediately helped me find one—the attention to detail was truly thoughtful.
The room itself was even more impressive. It was spotlessly clean, not a speck of dust anywhere. The bedding was soft and comfortable, and the blackout curtains were excellent, ensuring I got a peaceful night's sleep during my travels. The bathroom had a well-designed wet/dry separation, ample hot water, and the toiletries had a fresh scent and felt high-quality. The in-room smart devices were easy to operate, and the Wi-Fi signal was stable, perfect for work or entertainment without any lag. The complimentary drinks in the mini-bar were a nice bonus.
The breakfast selection was extensive, offering not only standard Chinese and Western dishes but also delicious local specialties. Any requests during my stay were met with a quick response from the staff, and I felt completely at home throughout. It offers excellent value for money, suitable for both business trips and leisure vacations. I've already recommended it to friends and will definitely choose to stay here again next time!
