Hotels near Yantai Haichang Whale Shark Ocean Park, Yantai

We were very satisfied with the hotel's location, service, and cleanliness. The pick-up and drop-off service was especially appreciated, particularly since we were a family traveling with young children and luggage. This hotel is designed like a traditional quadrangle courtyard, so some rooms are on the second floor, requiring a short climb up a flight of stairs. Right outside the hotel, you're on the bustling Chaoyang Street, and in about a two-minute walk, you'll reach Guangxing Orchard, which is very convenient. The front desk staff were also very friendly. Upon check-out, they even gave small gifts to my two children. There's a water dispenser in the hotel lobby with both hot and cold water available at all times, which was very handy. The room was spacious enough to open two 32-inch suitcases simultaneously without a problem. The only minor inconvenience was the lack of privacy in the bathroom. If you needed to change, you had to ask anyone else in the room to avoid the area around the bathroom.

The proprietress was very enthusiastic. I got off the train at around nine o'clock in the middle of the night and couldn't get a taxi. The proprietress drove us to the train station to pick us up. She also gave us a simple travel guide and introduced the scenic spots and Penglai's special breakfast. It's very close to the scenic spot and can be reached on foot. The room is very clean. The whole house is smart and has a smart toilet. It's my first time staying in a B&B and I feel very comfortable and at ease. At the same time, I would like to express my special thanks to the proprietress because I am alone at such a late hour. I made a call and she immediately picked me up. All in all, it was a very pleasant trip. I will definitely stay at her house next time I come here.

This time we went to Qingdao, Weihai and Yantai, and stayed in three hotels. This Yantai hotel really gave our family the best experience. The rooms are spacious, clean, and cleaned in a timely manner. The facilities are very complete and suitable for a family. There are welcome fruits when we check in. I would also like to thank Xiaona and Xiaohong for sending us farewell fruits before we left. They also asked if we needed help finding a cart for our luggage and welcomed us to come again. Two staff members also helped us take our luggage downstairs very enthusiastically, and the welcoming brother at the door helped us put our bags on the car. The enthusiasm of the hotel staff touched our whole family and brought our seaside trip to a perfect end. If we have the opportunity, we will come to Yantai again and choose this hotel again. I don’t know if the hotel staff will see my comments. Your work attitude has added a touch of beauty to our journey. Thank you, I will miss Yantai.

The best place for a calm vacation on a beach for a affordable price. This was a nice little hotel standing right in front of a beach. The placement can be seen as perfect as this large beach is wonderful itself and much better then the beaches at the city center. The only inconvenience to consider when choosing this or nearby hotels is lack of cafes and restorans nearby, so you'd better take breakfasts in the hotel, they were not bad, tasty and very filing, with serveral options to choose from. For other places to eat, except for a two nearby costly restorans, you'll have to wark to find one about 1-1,5 km or more. If you want to spend more time in the city center consider also the time to travel to it, about 1,5 hours on a bus, 30-50 minutes on taxi. The service was decent, even though stuff does not speak english they were very welcome and supportive, helping me and calling taxi a couple of times when I needed it. The hotel itself is clean. The room was cleaned daily, not perfectly as the floors in the room stayed a bit dusty all the time but that was not too much of an issue. The bedding was always clean, towels were clean as well and changed daily. I have to say a few words about the beach and the see themselves. The beach is large and clean, there are trash bins which are cleaned daily. It have a sand of very good quality, indeed of a golden color. The beach longs for several kilometers and is from about 150 meters wide to 200+ meters wide depending on the tides. The beach is shallow but no too much, you can easily walk to a place where you can swim freely. It was August and the water was extremely warm and cozy. It was clean with little human made trash coming from the see, but due to temperature the water near the shore start blooming on a second or third day of my stay there. I had to walk 10-15 meters in a 50-80 centimeters deep water full of seaweed before I come to clear waters. I bit unpleasant but not a big deal. There were some jelly fish coming the shore, the see doesn't have dangerous ones though. The beach has some infrastructure, at least there is a place to wash your hands and legs and there are public toilets nearby the beach, but there are no safeguards on it. With an chinese specifics I would say that's a plus as they are too restrictive and protective here.

I chose the Central Hotel for my dad's follow-up hospital visit, and this old-school hotel definitely lives up to its reputation. Every staff member at the front desk was fantastic; they had our room reserved in advance, so check-in was instant! The two concierges were incredibly responsible, surprising us with different little treats every day – so thoughtful and caring! The restaurant staff were very welcoming, and the cleaning auntie was diligent, tidying up our room promptly every day. All in all, the Central Hotel's service is so dedicated, which clearly shows their management is five-star. Thank you!

We decided to come to Yantai from Dalian last minute and booked this hotel in a hurry. I was traveling with my husband, mother, and two children. Usually, we'd need to book two standard rooms, but this place had a family suite, which was perfect for our needs. We arrived by boat around 5 AM. I explained our situation to the front desk attendant, mentioning we had children and an elderly person with nowhere to go. The lovely lady let us check in at 8 AM, which I really appreciated! The room exceeded our expectations – the bedding and the entire room were spotless and tidy. There was even a vintage arcade game, which the kids absolutely loved and played for ages! The bathroom was also well-designed with a separate washbasin, shower, and toilet, ensuring privacy. The hotel's location right by Yantai Station is incredibly convenient. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit!

If you're looking for a sea view, you absolutely must stay at the Sheraton Yantai Golden Beach Resort! The hotel boasts exceptional beachfront views, and what's even better is the thoughtful and attentive service from Bill Bo at the front desk. Bill Bo was polite, efficient with the check-in process, and proactively explained the hotel's amenities and coastal attractions. His service was meticulous yet perfectly professional. The stunning ocean scenery combined with such warm service made our trip incredibly comfortable and definitely worth a dedicated visit.

The room environment is excellent, with Kunyu Mountain as its backdrop, it is quiet, fresh and peaceful. The room is clean and tidy, and the hot water is very comfortable. The lady at the front desk is very enthusiastic and answers all my questions.

I had hoped to stay where I stayed in Aug. 2024, but when trip.com confirmed with that place, it no longer accepted foreigners. It was nice trip.com recommended this place instead and get a confirmation email right away. Conditions per previous travelers comments had changed. I did not see any bugs. I had taken my swim trunks along because a previous comment said.men and women showered together, but there were separate showers, and the showers, toilets, and sink.areas were clean. Some floor tile needed to be finished. There were desks to have meals at, and a microwave, but it was on the top of some lockers. One chair back needed to be replaced. The air conditioning and room were comfortable. The property wanted guests to call the property before arriving. Perhaps the driver was unfmiliar with the area, and we had to detour. The owner (limited English) answered the driver's call but responded to me on WeChat in Chinese I could translate, and he provided the outside and room codes. The main worker had good English and asked me to send a picture of my passport. While she did not understand registering me with the local police as a foreigner, the owner did that when I asked him to. The location was convenient, as I walked to the Yantai Train Station when I left. The price was reasonable.

The location is excellent, the transportation is convenient, and it is convenient to travel. There are many parking spaces in the parking lot at the door. There is light music at the front desk, which is very nice. The room type is very good, the layout is reasonable, the bathroom is super large, clean and hygienic, and the mattress is very comfortable. Highly recommended.
