Hostels in Heilongjiang, China

"This is the best Hostel that I have ever stayed in. The location is right on central street (the street that is in all the stuff to do lists on Harbin). It is also only 10 minutes walking distance from the Saint Sophia's church. There is also this mall 1 minute walking distance from the front door called Euro Plaza a 7 story shopping mall with all the food and shopping you would need or want. Apart from its rooms, the hotel offers a common area and free washer dryers for its guests both of which are very clean. It also has refrigerators in the common area that it sells drinks out of, I even saw people store their food inside the right most refrigerators because there are no refrigerators in the rooms. Overall I would definitely stay here if I come back to Harbin."

"An absolutely perfect stay that exceeded my expectations – I'll definitely be choosing this hotel again next time! I just finished my weekend stay here and I simply *must* write a glowing review. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I experienced meticulous service – the staff were friendly and smiling, check-in was quick, and they proactively introduced me to the hotel facilities and local dining options. My deluxe king room was even more spacious and comfortable than I imagined. The room design was simple yet elegant, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering expansive city views, especially beautiful and calming with all the lights at night. The mattress and pillows had just the right firmness, ensuring several nights of deep sleep. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, the toiletries had a delicate botanical scent, and the hot water supply was plentiful and stable, making for a great shower experience. Attention to detail truly shined through: daily replenished minibar drinks, bedside USB charging ports, and a smart curtain control system all made the stay incredibly convenient. The turndown service was particularly commendable; not only did the staff tidy the room, but they also thoughtfully left a weather forecast card and a small 'goodnight' snack. The breakfast selection was extensive, with a wide variety of both Chinese and Western options. The freshly cooked noodle station and freshly baked bread were my motivation to get up every morning. The hotel also has a gym and a sky garden on the top floor; an evening stroll there to watch the sunset was peaceful and delightful. At check-out, the front desk staff proactively asked for my feedback on the stay and assisted with luggage storage until the evening – the service was consistently thoughtful throughout. This wasn't just a stay; it felt more like a relaxing mini-vacation. I highly recommend it to anyone, whether for business or leisure; it's excellent value for money. Full marks!"

"This was my first solo trip, and my first time staying in a hostel, and the experience was truly fantastic! Even though I only stayed one night, I had an incredibly, incredibly happy, warm, and cozy stay. The environment was great, it really felt like home. They have a female-only section, and my roommates were super nice. It was a very comfortable stay, and excellent value for money! I absolutely loved this place and have already recommended it to my friends. I will definitely stay here again next time I visit Harbin!"

"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!"

"I was extremely satisfied; this was the best hostel I've ever stayed in. It was my first time staying in a hostel in northern China, and the main reason I slept so well was because it cured my sleep problems 💤… Considering the incredibly low price, I felt obligated to give it a good review. The best part was meeting three different roommates who were all very nice and shared their travel experiences… This was a pleasant surprise. The only regret was not being able to participate in any activities! The fact that there were fewer people these past few days (off-season) was also an advantage. The barbecue place recommended by Brother Nie was delicious, but I ordered too much for one person. Be careful when ordering food in Northeast China—the portions are huge!!! Next time I'm in Harbin, I'll definitely stay in a hostel nearby; it's about a 20-minute walk."

"1️⃣Location: The place is easy to find. I took a bus from the train station and the bus driver can drop you off directly downstairs of the hostel. It is super convenient! 2️⃣Environment: The travel atmosphere is also very strong. From downstairs, stairs, corridors, you can see graffiti drawn by travelers from all over the world, as well as messages from travelers in 2014. I heard that this youth hostel has been open for more than ten years, but it is not shabby at all. The environment is very clean. There is a lobby, a public activity area, a bed room, a single room, a double bed room, and a Northeast-style big fire bed, the kind of earthen kang that is really burned with fire. I also saw the boss burning fire for the guests that day. It was a very novel experience 3️⃣Activities: Going to Dongji Square to watch the sunrise and to Hei** Island are both far away, so you must have a car. Friends who don’t drive don’t have to worry. You can directly find Guanshu to sign up for a one-day carpooling tour. You don’t even need to make a guide. He will take you to all the attractions in Fuyuan in one stop, including Dongji sunrise, the first outpost in the East, Wusu Town, Hezhe National Village, the easternmost post office, Hei** Island, cranberry base... You can also have authentic Northeast breakfast and authentic Hezhe fish noodle soup. The price for carpooling is also very cost-effective, only 100 yuan, and it also comes with a free travel commentary. Along the way, I can listen to Uncle Guan introducing the local scenery and culture. The explanation is detailed and rich in content. It is equivalent to not only hiring a chartered driver, but also a professional tour guide. It is such a good deal! 4️⃣Service: Brother Yang at the front desk is very nice, humorous and enthusiastic. When he saw that my suitcase was very large, he took the initiative to help me carry my luggage. He was super considerate! He is gentle and doesn't talk much, but whenever there is a problem or issue, he is the first person you turn to for help. He is almost always in the store, which makes people feel at ease! ! 5️⃣The significance of staying in a youth hostel is not only that it is cheap, but more importantly, you can find people to share cars, play together, and eat together. The dishes in Northeast China are generally large in quantity, and it is difficult to order dishes when there are few people. It is also a waste if you order too much and cannot finish the food. Therefore, Guan Shu will help organize friends to share meals together, eat Northeastern dishes, eat iron pot stews, etc. There are rich dishes when there are many people, and the AA price is also very cost-effective. 6️⃣Fuyuan characteristics: fish! Here you can find three or five friends and have a fish feast together. Wow, the taste is so blissful. There are more than a dozen fish dishes on the table, in various ways, fried, pan-fried, steamed, braised, fish ball soup, sashimi. You can eat anything you can't think of, hahahaha (Friendly reminder: the dishes here are generally salty, so those who prefer light taste should remember to greet the chef in advance) 7️⃣Finally, I have to praise Uncle Guan separately. He is super considerate, warm-hearted, and considerate of everything. Travelers who come to stay in the hotel can contact him and he can arrange all your problems for you, from plane/train pick-up, to sightseeing in Fuyuan, tasting food, to all the companionship during the trip. He will make you feel particularly thoughtful and warm. He is simply our Fuyuan know-it-all! ! ! There is no one else in Fuyuan who can be as thorough as him. He is also an old child with a childlike innocence. He can chat and play with us young people. He is enthusiastic but reserved, humorous but not ostentatious. He is like the respected uncle in the family. He is calm and reliable, but not distant. People want to get close to him and he is trustworthy."

"Stayed for four days, the disadvantage is that the pillow is too hard, (I don't know if there is soft, no question) the bathroom is a sensor light, often not working. There is no bathing supplies (shampoo shower gel) in the bathroom. There is no one at the front desk when taking a shower. I went outside to buy it. The first time I came to the Northeast, the hotel in Harbin was really too expensive, Anshan was very cheap, and the morning market was cheaper than Harbin. The Northeast Youth Hostel is not as good as the South (I have lived in this room, this is already what I saw on the Internet and I think it is relatively good)."

"The boss of this youth hostel is so good! On the second day in Harbin, I was cold and fevered. The boss also sent me various drugs and bought me canned yellow peaches. Thank you so much! The youth hostel is also very good! The location is excellent, there are several bus stops downstairs, and it is very fast to go to the city center. There is also an airport bus line 3 station downstairs. It is also very convenient to go to the airport. There are also many delicious foods near the Youth Hostel, and there is Lao Dingfeng selling downstairs. And the Youth Hostel is very clean, the girl's public restroom is in the room, I like this very much! There will not be too many people in the Youth Hostel, and it is very safe to live! In short, it is recommended! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !"

"The room is a bit small but is very clean. The location is very good, near to subways & attractions place like Zhongyang Street, Morning Market, Songhua River and St. Sophia Cathedral 😉 Owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. They invited us and all the guests to celebrate New Year Eve together. We went to Songhua River together to watch fireworks 🎇 We will stay here again if we visit Harbin 😉"

"The location of the hotel is so convinient, it's close to grocery stores, restaurants, mosques and morning markets and many more. The staff is very helpfull, the environment in here is so warm. I like my stay in here."
