At 68 Ganshui Road in Xiangfang District, the indoor heated swimming pool has a water temperature of around 28°C year-round, and there are also a spa and fitness center, making it one of the top pool experiences here.
A relatively good and fairly old hotel in Harbin. It's close to the provincial government on all sides, with an old park across the street. The hotel breakfast is quite good. Although it's an old hotel, it's still fairly well maintained.
The seasoned 5-star hotel is still reliable. I went to Qiqihar in between, and upon returning, they still upgraded my room.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
