Harbin Central Street Sophia Xana Deluxe Hotel Reviews

This is my first time traveling to China and the first time I was very impressed, both the accommodation and the people. This hotel welcomed me very well, provided tea, the staff were smiling, even the housekeeper was lovely. The hotel is clean, beautiful, near the main road and many important places, easy to travel. If I have a chance to go to China again, I will definitely stay here again.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Staff didn’t understand English very well but was still super helpful. I also appreciate the little details they provided such as free water bottles on every floor and free afternoon snacks. Will definitely stay here next time if I’m in Harbin again.

Very friendly front desk staff, clean rooms and quiet area, extremely close to Zhongyang Pedestrian Street.

Good and free candy at the bar

The location was fantastic, Central street was just around the corner. The staffs were friendly and helpful.

We had a lovely stay at Xana, staff do not speak English but it was not an issue at all, they were very helpful and took good care of us and our needs, while using a translation app to talk to each other. The room was not that large but functional and clean, bed is comfy, bathroom and toilet were clean and there was a free afternoon tea at the lobby with delish cookies and fruits. The location is top notch, right in front of Zhaolin park and just 1 mn walk to the commercial Zhongyang street and just 5 mn away from Songhua river, park. If you use DIDI TRAVEL on the Alipay app, the location of this hotel should be spelled as "Xi'an Deluxe Hotel.." Overall, it was a lovely experience for us staying at Xana and would recommend to our friends if they travel to Harbin

The staffs were friendly and helpful. They tried their best to make our stay comfortable. They even helped us to warm up our food. The location was fantastic, Central street was just around the corner. Great for families with young children and elderly!

Hotel staff are helpful and friendly. Mineral Drinks are free to take. They also provided milk & deserts for free . Hotel location is very good , easy access to different tourist places .

Location is good, but a bit pricey. Quality of front desk staff inconsistent. Some are proactive esp Ms LL but the male staff on duty at night seem less organised and haphazard. Gym has only one treadmill and is in the basement which feels a little creepy. Washing machines helpful but one out of order (and it seems from other reviews, for some time already). Most outstanding would be the breakfast crew of middle aged ladies. All chirpy, enthusiastic and polite! Breakfast mainly Chinese but a good variety. Rooms offer great strong heating or air conditioning, and powerful showers. The housekeeping is efficient and polite.

Once of the best hotel for this Harbin trip. We booked 4 and overall this is really the best. Next round back will only choose this hotel. Everything is great!

I've stayed here twice, both times in the winter. Hotel is near the walking street. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are too hot due to the floor heating.

The location is perfect - just off the walking street and easy to catch taxis from here too. The bed was comfortable and the room was OK. The rooms could do with a face lift.

Very convenient location right by the walking street and across from a small park with some ice sculptures. it's also a 15min walk to St Sophia Cathedral. There is a cute Hans Christian Anderson themed coffee shop on the corner. And the river with all it's activities is also also just a few minutes walk away. Clean and good service, I would recommend it.

*Disappointed after so many good reviews…* We recently travelled to Harbin and after looking at many of the hotels and reading the reviews we decided that this was the hotel for us. However we were shocked to find the poor service and cleanliness during our stay. Location: The location of the hotel is a huge plus point as it’s very close to the central street & not too much of a distance to reach the main tourist attractions (20/30 min taxi ride). The location is also close to lots of restaurants which is very convenient. Service: This is an area which could definitely do with improvement especially the evening staff, upon checkin the staff were friendly and welcoming however when we raised issues with the hotel room they became very rude and disrespectful. When we arrived to our room we found we had no face cloths - not a big issue and one that was resolved in a timely manner. However we then had to ask for the face cloths each day after housekeeping had changed the towels which isn’t an issue in itself more of an inconvenience . However the staff at the front desk seemed to find it quite funny (staff members laughing when we mentioned our room number at the front desk) that we had several issues with our room. Amenities: The hotel has a robot delivery service for when you order food and other items from meituan which is a convenient way to get your things. The shower in the room was broken but was fixed in a timely manner. The room air con is basically just an ornament, the temperature of the room cannot be changed - it was set at 34 celsius one night - you can open a window but it will get cold quite quickly. Cleanliness: Another area with room for improvement - the hotel room is rather dusty with dust falling from the ceiling above the bed. The sink was not cleaned when we checked in. On one occasion we were given ‘fresh’ towels with make up stains on. Unfortunately we would not stay here again.
