2-Star Hotels in Heilongjiang, China

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!

Choosing Nannan Guesthouse for this trip to Snow Valley was definitely the right decision, and the whole experience felt so heartwarming. Coming from the south, we were really afraid of the cold, but when we communicated with the landlady in advance, she gave us detailed travel tips early on and even helped arrange our pickup and drop-off rides. The moment we stepped inside, it was instantly cozy. The heated brick bed (kang) was warmed to perfection—not too hot or stuffy at all. The room was spotlessly clean, the quilts were dry with no dampness, and there was 24-hour hot water in the bathroom so we didn't have to wait to take a shower. The landlady is such a genuine and down-to-earth person; she treated us to frozen pears and frozen persimmons, lent us traditional floral padded jackets for photos, and taught us the best way to capture the boiling water splashing into ice effect. We had our dinners right at the lodge, enjoying hearty portions of authentic Northeastern iron-pot stew. She also gave us great advice on hiking routes in Yangcaoshan and viewing spots at Wusong Ridge, honestly pointing out tourist traps instead of blindly pushing activities. At night, the courtyard was peaceful and quiet, and pushing open the window revealed a vast, white snowy landscape. Coming back after a tiring day for a sound, restful sleep—experiencing such grounded warmth in the middle of a frozen wonderland is truly rare and precious.

The location here isn't far from Central Street, making it easy to walk all the way to the Songhua River. For solo travelers, it's a great place to meet like-minded travel enthusiasts and create unforgettable memories.

My stay here was great! The front desk staff were really friendly and efficient with the check-in process, which was a nice touch. The room itself was clean and tidy, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom layout was well-designed with a practical wet/dry separation. Overall, it was a very satisfying stay and I'd definitely recommend it, especially since it's so close to the train station!

This hotel is very nice amazing service is pretty good and if you want a budget friendly hotel i will highly recommend this. As a foreigner it was great hotel.

Every day since leaving Xinfu, I've been missing the sledding hill behind the lodge (it was free and unlimited!). The owner even helps guests take photoshoots like 'splashing water into ice' (he took three amazing shots for me 😎) and 'glowing with colors.' He's an incredibly skilled photographer, and those pictures instantly elevated my social media game. They also organized a session where we all made candied hawthorns together. As an extrovert, being able to chat with everyone like that was just so enjoyable! The owner also led the trip to Wusong Ridge, keeping us entertained, taking photos, and even teaching us how to ski along the way. As someone from the south, I truly got to experience the thrill of playing wildly in the snow! And of course, the accommodation itself was very unique, with a traditional heated *kang* bed, ensuring a deep sleep until morning. Waking up to hot porridge in the morning was just heavenly!

The room was really good. I booked it for my parents when they visited Harbin. It was clean, and the environment was quiet, not too noisy. My parents stayed for three days and were very happy with it. Service: Everything you need is nearby, and it's not far from the subway. Facilities: We didn't have high demands for smart devices, but the Wi-Fi was fast, everything was good. Overall, my parents were very satisfied. Environment: The environment was nice, clean, and tidy. We'll definitely book this place again next time we visit.

I booked it based on the ratings. I was very satisfied with the hotel. The front desk checked in quickly without waiting. The service was also very good. The room was large and clean. The bathroom was separated into dry and wet areas. The design was very good. The breakfast was also very rich. Recommended

Stayed at 'Xuegu Yu Wo Tongxing' for 4 days and 3 nights. Basically, I contacted the owner's wife via WeChat, which I got from Xiaohongshu. She helped us arrange the entire itinerary, and then we booked the accommodation on Ctrip. First day (Dec 30, 25): We took a large bus from Central Street to Xuegu at 8 AM. We arrived at 'Xuegu Yu Wo Tongxing' around 2 PM. After checking in, we started playing in the snow behind their guesthouse. At 6:30 PM, the owner's mother taught us how to make candied hawthorns. The tickets were 140 RMB for adults and 70 RMB for children. Then we started a 5-kilometer hike to Xuexiang. The thick snow and beautiful scenery along the way made my daughter forget about rushing. It was so cold on the mountain that my glasses frosted over, but thankfully I had applied warming patches to my hands, feet, back, and abdomen. We reached Xuexiang around 2 PM, rested at the Xuexiang Tourist Center, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Xuexiang is very commercialized; the food was expensive and not good. Between 3 and 4 PM, it got dark, so we went up the Fairy Tale World Plank Road to photograph the beautiful scenery of Xuexiang. The evening view was absolutely stunning. Then, at 6 PM, we took the bus arranged by the owner's wife back to the Xuegu guesthouse. We arrived back around 8 PM, and the owner's mother had prepared dinner. Their food was delicious. Third day (Jan 1, 26): At 9 AM, the owner took me by bus to visit Wusongling (Rime Island). We bought tickets at the foot of the mountain, 400 RMB for both adults and children. After the bus dropped us off, we had to take a snowmobile up a very steep mountain. Then we started trying out different activities, including snow banana boating, snow tubing, skiing, self-driving snowmobiles, a slide for children, and camel riding (at an additional cost). Afterward, the owner led us on a hike up a steep slope to take many beautiful photos. He even used a drone and a 360 camera to capture high-quality videos for us. I left around 3 PM; it was too cold on the mountain. Fourth day (Jan 2, 26): After breakfast at the guesthouse, we took a bus back to Harbin at 9 AM. For all three evenings, the owner would pop Wuchang rice for us to eat in the hall, and we'd chat while cracking sunflower seeds. Overall, I highly recommend the guesthouse's cleanliness and the restaurant's food. The owner, his wife, his mother, and the guesthouse staff are all simple, honest, and truly go out of their way to satisfy all guests. Thank you to all the staff at 'Xuegu Yu Wo Tongxing' for their dedication, which made our experience wonderful. We will definitely return to Wusongling if we get the chance.

The location is fantastic, right at the subway entrance. When it's -20 to -30 degrees Celsius outside, saving a few hundred meters of walking really is a lifesaver. The hostel also provides free earplugs, and there are a lot of international guests, so you hear all sorts of languages. As an introverted person with social anxiety, I wasn't able to initiate conversations. There's a fridge and microwave on the first floor, so you can store your own food and heat it up whenever you want. All in all, it's pretty good!
