Hotels in Qingdao

"This is a very convenient transit hotel, close to the airport and very quiet. The bedding was super comfortable, and I had an excellent rest. The breakfast in the morning was abundant and delicious. Plus, there's a recent discount making it a great value for money. Sofia's service was incredibly warm and professional, making me feel right at home."

"For my trip to Qingdao, I was looking for a hotel with convenient access to transportation, shopping, and dining. After reading numerous traveler reviews, I opted for the newly opened Qingdao Yihai Garden Hotel (May Fourth Square branch). The room was spacious, bright, and comfortable, and the cleanliness was also quite good. The facilities were comprehensive. Although there wasn't a direct sea view, the city lights at night were still dazzling. Breakfast was plentiful, offering local specialty snacks that tasted great. Even with many guests staying, everything remained quite orderly. A notable feature: The laundry room was a very popular spot, often with queues forming. The hotel site originally served as the Qingdao Workers' Sanatorium, which I personally believe contributes to its 'quiet oasis in a bustling city' feel. Downside: As some other guests have mentioned, the shower water temperature would occasionally fluctuate between hot and cold, and the water spray was too dispersed. I hope this can be improved."

"This is a really charming hostel, converted from a century-old building, with lovely common areas. The location is superb, right near Zhongshan Road Metro Station (Line 1) and close to the Dabao Island Historic and Cultural Block, making many old town attractions easily reachable on foot. Getting to the beach or seaside is also a breeze, with a very convenient bus stop for route 228 just around the corner. Given that traffic can be an issue in the old town, the metro and bus options near the hostel absolutely covered all my transportation needs during my 3-day stay in Qingdao. Dining is also very convenient; the hostel's own restaurant serves delicious meals, and it's easy to grab a coffee. Plus, there's a variety of dining establishments nearby, and food delivery can be brought to the front desk for pick-up. While the nearby Dabao Island themed post office offers souvenir stamps (requires a purchase and doesn't have postmarks), I'd highly recommend walking a bit further to the Guangxi Road Post Office Branch instead, where you can get stamps for free and they even have three different postmarks available!"

"[”My stay here far exceeded my expectations! From the efficient and thoughtful service at the front desk during check-in to the spotless room and complete amenities, every detail showed the hotel's dedication. I especially want to commend the night staff; they responded quickly and professionally to my last-minute requests. Next time I'm in this city, this will definitely be my top choice again.”,”I must commend the service team at this hotel! Not only was the check-in process quick with no waiting, but the room service was also incredibly meticulous. My room was tidied up perfectly every day, and even items I had left out were neatly put back in place. The hotel's breakfast offered a wide variety and excellent quality, and the dining environment was very comfortable, perfectly starting my day every morning.”,”Choosing this hotel was one of the best decisions of my trip! The hotel's location is excellent, making travel convenient, yet it's surprisingly quiet despite being in a bustling area. The soundproofing in the rooms is superb, ensuring I had a high-quality sleep every night. The staff always maintained a warm smile, and whether I needed advice on local attractions or assistance with something, they provided professional and patient answers. My experience here was absolutely perfect!”]"

"Thanks, Jenny! You were so considerate throughout, handling our check-in efficiently and smoothly. The family suite is perfect for larger groups; it's a one-bedroom apartment with an extra bed in the living room, which is incredibly convenient for families with two children these days. Even when the hotel was fully booked, you did your best to arrange a room for us. Waking up to the sunrise and watching planes from the room was anything but boring. Shandong girls are truly direct and straightforward. This hotel is really the best choice for the airport, though it's a bit of a walk. Overall, it's very thoughtfully run. This trip to Qingdao gave me a firsthand impression of the people here; at least in the service industry, almost everyone is straightforward, warm, and accommodating. Aside from Shandong Airlines, it seems all the people of Shandong are just as hospitable! Thanks for taking care of us."

"The pre-booked airport and subway station transfers were incredibly convenient; the driver was punctual and very friendly, which made my trips over the past two days thoroughly enjoyable. My room even had a mini-fridge, which was perfect for storing leftover local dishes since I was traveling solo. To top it off, the hotel restaurant kindly reheated my food for lunch! This was a truly fantastic experience!"

"I originally booked the Atour Hotel near May Fourth Square, but a friend recommended the Holiday Inn, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice!! Location: The hotel is conveniently situated next to a government building, with a Ginza Mall right next door, offering an abundance of dining options. It's within walking distance to the Olympic Sailing Center, and MixC Mall is just a short stroll away. Hygiene: As we are allergic to dust mites, Holiday Inn wasn't initially on our radar because their rooms traditionally had carpets. However, they renovated some rooms at the end of 2024, converting them to hard flooring, which is why we decided to stay. Apart from that, everything else was spotless and very well maintained. Service: Before booking, I inquired with the front desk if we could request newly renovated rooms and if two rooms could be adjacent. They confirmed it was possible, just to add a note to the reservation. We arrived at 1:30 AM, and our rooms were perfectly arranged. Excellent! Facilities: There's a game area and a gym on the first floor. I really hope they consider adding a self-service laundry facility and EV charging stations! The absence of charging stations is genuinely inconvenient."

"Ever since deciding in June in Dali to visit Qingdao in September, I booked the Shangri-La Hotel right away! That's because my 'bear baby' (term of endearment for myself) absolutely loves the signature scent at every Shangri-La. Arriving at Shangri-La, I immediately felt right at home. These five days truly felt like being with family. From the Shang Palace to the Café Yum, the Horizon Club Lounge, Concierge, Housekeeping, and Front Desk – every single staff member always had a wonderful smile on their face. I want to give a special shout-out to Benjamin and Rina; they took such excellent care of my 'bear baby'! They thoughtfully looked after my 'bear baby's' every need – food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation – and told me all the best spots for photos and check-ins, among many other things. They were also incredibly patient with my 'bear baby's' 'nagging,' never getting annoyed no matter how busy they were, haha. It was truly exceptional; I was genuinely sad to leave the hotel."

"Very satisfied with this hotel. We arrived at 11am and was allowed early checkin. Stayed in King room. The bed was extremely comfortable and the sound proofing was amazing. Right next to the tourist ZhongShan Rd yet it was completely quiet! The lady receptionist was very helpful and kind when we needed help. Location was superb. We could visit the attractions and return to the room to rest back and forth as it was all within walking distance. Stayed only 1 night, as we had already booked another place. Nevertheless it felt like we had stayed like a few days as we were able to do so much within the short stay there."

"As someone traveling with family, I have high standards for hotels, and this one met almost all my core requirements. • **Value for Money**: For this price point, the facilities and services provided are exemplary. • **Well-Equipped**: The gym equipment is new, the pool water is clean, and the business center facilities are also very useful. It's incredibly convenient for those who need to work. • **Exceptional Hygiene**: The cleanliness is impeccable; you can walk barefoot in the room without feeling it's dirty, and there isn't a trace of limescale in the bathroom, which really put my mind at ease. • **Excellent Dining**: The breakfast offers a rich variety, blending Chinese and Western options, and the local specialties are particularly authentic. The restaurant staff are also very attentive. Overall, this is a very mature and trustworthy hotel in terms of hardware, software, and management."
