Guest UserI really want to highlight the hotel's cleanliness, ambiance, and service! The room was spotless, and the bedding and bathroom were perfectly clean and fresh. The hotel's atmosphere is elegant and tranquil, which really helps you relax. The staff were consistently warm and patient, always ready to help with any request. The service was incredibly thoughtful, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again.

SONG JIANG BONANZA WINNING HOTEL — From Smoke Signals to Sacred Silence
Arrival & First Sniff
This old dog finally flopped down in Jilin City, relieved to rest my paws at the grandly named Song Jiang Bonanza Winning Hotel. “Winning,” I thought—until my non-smoking room greeted me with a stale tobacco haze. One whiff and I nearly cancelled the stay on the spot.
Room Rescue
Cue Mr Hong Dejian—calm, English-speaking, and clutching the keys to redemption. He patiently showed me alternative rooms until we found one that didn’t smell like a poker night. Had I left, I would’ve missed what came next.
Comfort Food = Home
Dinner delivered a miracle: stewed chicken with potatoes and mushrooms. One bite and—boom—mummy’s cooking. After days on the road, I finally found food in China that tasted like home. Tail wagging resumed.
Care Beyond the Call
Mr Hong returned with a portable heater, pointed out city landmarks, and even taught me how to take a non-reflective photo (yes, this dog learns fast). His easy friendliness softened the edges of dirty window panes and mostly Mandarin-only staff. I even showed him the ink-black towel after wiping the window—evidence, not barking.
Menu Meltdown & A Win
At the restaurant, I was handed a Chinese-only menu after saying I don’t speak Mandarin. I hit the roof. To their credit, reception listened: I received a call from the lady boss, and the issue was acknowledged. Then a hero appeared—the restaurant lady, who patiently translated dish names so I could choose lunch and dinner without guesswork. Gold bone earned.
City Interlude: Jilin Catholic Church
Between meals and meetings, I visited Jilin Catholic Church (吉林耶稣圣心堂)—a quiet pause from hotel hiccups. The church offered a moment of stillness, a reminder that even on a bumpy stay, the city holds pockets of grace.
Logistics That Worked
Back at the desk, the reception lady manager efficiently arranged my transport to Wusong Island—quick, competent, and reassuring.
Breakfast & The Fine Print
Breakfast surprised me in the best way: healthy, balanced, a thoughtful mix of local and Western dishes. One final bone to chew—early booking didn’t pay off as prices dropped later. A truly Winning Hotel would honour the lower rate at check-in.
Verdict
Despite communication bumps, this is a solid winter hideout: good Songhua River views, comforting food, and fast service when it counts. It really does take one good sheep—thank you, Mr Hong—to dim the rest of the flaws.

Stayed for nine nights over Chinese New Year for a fantastic ski vacation. The hotel offers convenient ski-in/ski-out access, and the lobby's lounge area is wonderfully cozy and comfortable, with complimentary hot tea – perfect for warming up after a tiring day on the slopes. The service was incredibly thoughtful; when I extended my stay, I had some booking issues that required canceling and rebooking (even past the free cancellation period), but they patiently assisted me with the rebooking, which I greatly appreciate. Breakfast was also very good. Dinner wasn't expensive, and the customizable Malatang (Sichuan hotpot) was excellent. It was also easy to get to town to buy fireworks and to local farm-to-table restaurants. I even won a bottle of wine during the Chinese New Year activities, wishing for a lucky year ahead. Hope to come back next year!

Anonymous UserThe environment is first-class, the accommodation conditions are great, and the service is very friendly. The lady at the front desk is very nice. The room is clean and tidy, and it’s a great value. I didn’t expect to spend such a small amount of money to stay in such a high-end hotel. It’s a very value-for-money experience.

Anonymous UserI found a new guesthouse near Shimao Avenue Metro! It was spotlessly clean and bright, and the shower pressure was incredibly comfortable. All the amenities were well-equipped, ensuring a good night's sleep. It definitely maximized my travel happiness!

FangzhuHealth service: Very average. After staying for several days, there was no cleaning or replacement of toiletries, bath towels or towels on the first day. I had to go to the store to communicate with the front desk at night to get them done temporarily. The bed was not made during cleaning the next day, only toiletries were changed.
Front desk service: Unskilled, unable to open the door every night when I come back, I have to go to the front desk to get a card.
Parking service: There was no underground parking lot at the beginning, but when it opened later, parking on the ground was not allowed. They kept saying that it was not possible on the ground, and other people's cars could be parked in front of me, and they were treated differently.
Hardware facilities: Some elevators require card swiping, while others do not. The system has not been debugged yet.
On the plus side, the overall hotel appearance, rooms, and lobby hardware are of high quality. It should be very good in Huadian. I hope the soft services can keep up.

Guest UserThe hotel environment was excellent. We visited on a weekday in August and the package included two cable car tickets, which was great value for money. We had booked different room types for our two-night stay, and the staff kindly upgraded us for the second night, saving us the hassle of changing rooms – really appreciate that! We were given an end room which had a fantastic wrap-around balcony, almost like a running track, perfect for enjoying the cool evening air. Overall, very satisfied!

This is a very good hotel. My mother and two babies are very happy. The hotel rooms are very luxurious, much better than the hotels of the same price in the south. The service quality, especially Wang Bing from the front office, made us feel at home. She was very enthusiastic and explained clearly all the questions we didn't understand. Just because of Wang Bing, I will stay here again when I go back to Jilin.
