Beach Hotels in Shandong, China

This is an absolute gem among all the hotels I've stayed in over 15 years of traveling across 40 countries. The design of the rooms, corridors, and common areas is stunning and truly unique. There’s an arcade machine in the room with Nintendo games from my childhood… It feels like the hotel owner's personal signature style - and it's the most amazing highlight of this place! A special afternoon tea with fantastic cookies is a wonderful service. Breakfast is usually a buffet, as far as I understand, but on the day of my stay, there was no buffet, and breakfast was served individually for each guest. Still, it was very good and filling. The location is excellent - right next to the bus station. That means you can check in immediately after arriving from the airport by airport bus, or leave your luggage if you arrive early. Getting anywhere in the city is also easy, quick and cheap by local buses. The room was very comfortable: quiet and very warm (I stayed during the cold season), exceptionally clean, with a great bathroom, and everything was in perfect condition. The bed was very comfortable with amazingly soft pillows worthy of a high-end hotel - and they even provide several pillows with different levels of softness! The staff's attitude toward guests is excellent: I'm a light sleeper, and quietness is important to me, but in Asia this is often a problem even in expensive hotels. So when booking, I requested a quiet room on a high floor and away from the elevator - and my wishes were fulfilled perfectly. And for all of this, the price is simply incredible. This hotel is worth traveling to Yantai just to stay here! Overall, it's a masterpiece. The only places I've seen that are better are classic five-star hotels, but even they don't have such outstanding interior design and arcade machines. 😊 And if you were born in the 1980s, you absolutely have to stay at this hotel to play the games of your childhood on a real arcade machine right in your room. 😊

We were dubious about booking this room for our 4 night stay as a foreign family in Qingdao but to our surprise it was quite pleasant. We were upgraded to a three bedroom apartment instead of 2 bedroom, which wasn't necessary and it was unused but the sentiment was appreciated. The two bedrooms are just as pictured -very comfortable - absolutely perfect. The kitchen countertop is high so tall people like us felt comfortable using it. The fridge and washing machine were useful to have. The unit has 2 bathrooms and 1 toilet at the entrance (convenient for guests visiting). The views are great from the living room and main bedroom. 🚨The ONLY NEGATIVE was that the living room was NOT COMFORTABLE at all😱😖 and this was a huge problem for us, as 3 larger westerners - the sofa is extremely hard, narrow bum area, and 90° angle back, making it super uncomfortable to sit ! ☹️ I'd urge management to rectify this immediately! There was also not enough seating so we had to move the chair from the bedroom to the living room. We would have extended our stay by two or three extra days if the sofa was comfortable! We would have given 5 stars instead of 3 if the living room was comfortable for sitting and enjoying the view all day which is WHY we booked this place for my elderly parents and brother. If you have a TV box and cables I recommended you bring it with if you want to watch English TV (using a vpn of course) which we did (remember all cords and remote). The staff came daily to clean -they were so friendly and just amazing! By the way we did ask if we could change to a room with a more comfortable sofa, but they said all of their rooms have the same uncomfortable grey sofa 😖😵🫤 super disappointing. all that being said - the value for the view, service, cleanliness and location -it's extremely good! Thanks Haiyi! We will come again ONLY if you change the sofas! 😂👍🏼👌🏼😀🥳

The room was very clean, and they even asked me if I wanted housekeeping during my stay. They provided disposable toilet seat covers and soft facial towels, which was a nice touch. The best part is that you open the door directly to the sea. Enjoying breakfast while looking out at the ocean in the morning was absolutely wonderful.

Location: Right by the sea, and a 15-minute walk to May Fourth Square. Around 5 PM, you can see flocks of seagulls, which is quite a sight. Compared to staying near Zhanqiao Pier, choosing this location means you won't get stuck in traffic during peak season. There's a mall nearby for some shopping, and Jingfugong Korean Restaurant, which is excellent, is just a 5-minute walk away. Room: Picture 1 is the sunset shot from room 1727. It offers a partial sea view. I particularly liked the table in the room. During peak season, it's great to order takeout and enjoy it in the hotel without waiting in lines, watching the sunset with a Qingdao beer – it saves so much time! Amenities: The breakfast was incredibly rich and fantastic; the kids absolutely loved it. In winter, they also have an infinity heated pool, which is 1.5 meters deep and very safe, with amazing views. Adults can also enjoy the gym and sauna! Service: Customer service agent Rose provided excellent one-on-one WeChat service. She wasn't just passively answering questions; she proactively checked in on us and even helped me get complimentary drinks and alcohol from the mini-fridge in the room. Rose definitely deserves a thumbs up! P.S.: The luggage staff at Hyatt Regency were super handsome! The front desk lady had such a gentle voice! Rose must also be a gentle, thoughtful, and beautiful lady!

The location is absolutely unbeatable! You can have fun right outside the door, and it's just a short walk to the sea. You can even see the sea from the elevator. The room was comfortable, and it even snowed that day, so we got to play in the snow right outside for ages. The geographical location is superb, and we had a very comfortable stay. The location is just to the left of picture five. Honestly, the location is the best part! It's fantastic!

Quick check-in. Fantastic price. Room is clane. Bed is a little bit hard, but it's fine. Location is perfect if you want to visit Shandong University. Convenient place to stay. Will definitely stay again. No breakfast - but with the rate is nothing to care about.

This was our second stay at the Hyatt, and the kids absolutely loved it! They had a blast playing indoors, and it was great that they could dig in the sand right outside. The indoor pool has a small hot spring area that wasn't crowded, perfect for toddlers to splash around in. Breakfast has improved a lot, with a wide variety of options. We also had a fantastic New Year's Eve dinner at the '88' restaurant; the food was delicious.

The Yantai Marriott Hotel boasts stunning, first-line sea views and a superb environment. The lobby is spacious and airy, and the rooms are expansive with floor-to-ceiling windows directly overlooking Golden Beach. The private garden offers direct access to the sea, creating a tranquil and rejuvenating atmosphere. Kevin and Rose provide excellent, family-friendly service online. The hotel is incredibly convenient for families with kids, offering a fully equipped children's play area, swimming pool, and even sand-digging tools. They also provide children's amenities. You can head straight down to the beach for tide pooling and sand play, making it a hassle-free, one-stop destination for entertaining your little ones.

It's really great to be able to bring a dog. The service is very good. The girl at the front desk is also very enthusiastic. The boss's thinking is very advanced. As a traveler with a pet, we have always adhered to the principle of not causing trouble to the store. We live seriously. Thank you for the boss's kindness. I hope the business will get better and better. I will come again. The room is very large and the pillow is very comfortable. I bought one to take home. It was a very happy trip

Highly recommend this B&B! I was absolutely wowed the moment I stepped in. The soft furnishings are exquisite and cozy, the bedding is incredibly soft and comfortable against the skin, and the bathroom is spotless with no strange odors. Even the toiletries were thoughtfully chosen. The location is superb; you can walk to the beach, and the sunrise in the morning is stunning. It's tucked away from the hustle and bustle, so it's quiet. The host's service was incredibly attentive; they sent check-in instructions in advance, responded instantly to any questions, and even recommended hidden local foodie spots. My experience was fantastic, and the value for money is unbeatable!
