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!

Guest UserMy stay at this hotel in Yabuli exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and tidy, the facilities were well-maintained, and the bedding was comfortable, leading to a great night's sleep. The staff were warm and attentive, and check-in and check-out were very efficient. The surrounding environment is tranquil, and the air is fresh. The ski resort isn't open yet, so I couldn't ski this time, but it's perfect for a quiet, relaxing getaway. I'll definitely be back to hit the slopes when ski season arrives. Highly recommended!

MediterraneanSeaFacilities: There's a restaurant on the first floor that offers breakfast. The selection isn't huge, but it's perfectly adequate. The room was spacious and had a large window. There were no strange odors, and the bathroom was a good size with a separate wet and dry area.
Ambiance: Clean and tidy, with lively decor. The signature Ibis red makes it feel warm and inviting.
Service: The young lady at the front desk had a smile that could melt anyone (and I'm a woman!). She was a major highlight of the hotel – so enthusiastic and empathetic. When she saw my mom and I were sharing a bed, she proactively upgraded us to a twin room, which was also very spacious, and even gave us complimentary egg tarts upon check-in. Her proactive spirit and warm service made our stay truly enjoyable! 😀
Hygiene: The hotel maintained the usual Ibis standard of cleanliness. There was no hair on the room floor, and both the toilet and shower areas were excellent and very spacious.

Guest UserWe came from the south to play in the snow and were initially worried it might be cold inside. To our surprise, the traditional heated brick bed (kang) was super cozy, making it so comfortable to hang out in the room without suffering from the cold at all. The host was genuine and incredibly welcoming, even treating us to complimentary frozen pears and frozen persimmons, which tasted so authentic. In the evening, the host took us out to do the boiling water freezing trick into snow crystals, set off fireworks, taught us how to take great photos, and gave us practical tips on how to avoid tourist traps in Snow Valley and where to catch the best rime ice views. The guesthouse is a short walk from the main street, making it very convenient to explore. The home-cooked food was also delicious, especially the generous portions of iron-pot stew. Staying here completely made our trip to Snow Valley an absolute ten-out-of-ten experience!

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.

Guest UserThe hotel's front desk service was incredibly welcoming, and they even gave us a small gift. We were very satisfied with our room and were also granted a late check-out. The service overall was excellent. They provided a complimentary afternoon tea, and on the second floor, there's a Russian restaurant and a 'tieguodun' (iron pot stew) place, plus they offered discount coupons. There are many great restaurants and attractions around the hotel, and Central Street is beautiful. It was a really great experience!

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!

Guest UserStarting right from the front desk, the check-in process was extremely professional! Every word was efficient and to the point—no fluff at all! Pure professionalism! The room was clean and the view was amazing—you could see the river! The location is super convenient. The complimentary breakfast was also fantastic, with staff constantly offering extra items! Special shout-out to the friendly, warm, and gracious lady working at breakfast! The only minor flaw was that there were tea stains on the quilt/bedding, but as soon as the manager found out, they replaced it immediately and offered a sincere apology! I honestly felt a bit embarrassed; they were just too polite! Harbin really lives up to its reputation. The service is simply unbeatable!

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!

Guest UserThe 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.
