History
JW Marriott Hotel Harbin River North opened in 2019 in the Songbei new-city district on the north bank of the Songhua River — five minutes by car from Harbin Ice and Snow World, the world's largest annual ice-and-snow festival, which fills 600,000 square metres with constructions built from 110,000 cubic metres of ice cut directly from the Songhua River each winter.
The setting
JW Marriott Hotel Harbin River North rises on Chuangxin Yi Road in Songbei District, Harbin's north-bank new central business district, commanding floor-to-ceiling views of the Songhua River. The district, home to the relocated municipal government, has transformed from river wetlands into a corridor of luxury hotels, corporate towers, and upscale villas. Harbin Ice and Snow World, the world-renowned winter festival venue, is five minutes by car, the Harbin Grand Theatre on Cultural Island and Sun Island Scenic Area are each a short drive, while the hotel's position on the north bank makes it the premier base for both the annual ice festival season and year-round Songhua River leisure.
