Beach Hotels in Shandong, China

"This Dragon Boat Festival, I brought my family to Qingdao for a trip, and the hotel we stayed at was quite satisfactory. The room had central air conditioning, a refrigerator, a washing machine (with a dryer), and even a kitchen where we could cook. We bought seafood from a nearby farmers' market and borrowed pots and pans from the hotel to enjoy a delicious seafood feast. Food delivery was very convenient; the delivery person would drop it off downstairs, and a robot would bring it to our hotel door a few minutes later. The kids loved this novel experience and had a blast. When traveling with young children, comfort is key. Most hotels only offer a bedroom and a bathroom, but the rooms at Haiyi Hotel were spacious and made for a very comfortable stay."

"First and foremost, a huge thank you to Elaine for upgrading us to a Deluxe Seaview Suite! The hotel is situated along Qingdao's Golden Coastline, offering an unbeatable environment. From the room, you can enjoy breathtaking ocean views and the sound of waves, taking in the magnificent scenery. Transportation is also incredibly convenient; you can walk to May Fourth Square and Badaguan. The hotel staff provides professional and attentive service, and the breakfast spread is diverse, allowing you to enjoy the view while you eat. The room decor and furnishings are exquisite, truly living up to its reputation as a scenic hotel. Highly recommended!"

"When I came to Weihai three or four years ago, I booked this guesthouse, and I was very satisfied with it at the time. So this time, I chose it again. However, the check-in experience was not as satisfying as the last time. The first obvious issue was the elevator – it took forever to catch one. The second was the room's cleanliness; the glass door of the bathroom was completely grimy, and the shower area was right outside the bathroom door. After showering, the entire bathroom floor would be wet if you needed to use the toilet. Plus, the shower drain was clogged and didn't drain, leading to standing water. The third problem was the sewer smell. It was somewhat tolerable with the windows open during the day, but at night, with the windows closed, the smell filled the entire room. Luckily, I only stayed for two nights. If you're booking the same room type as mine, I suggest you inquire about these issues beforehand. The location is convenient; the beach is right downstairs, and there are people singing on the beach at night. For this room type, parents with small children should be aware of the steps, as kids might trip easily at first."

"I stumbled upon this hotel with a floor-to-ceiling sea-view window room online and immediately fell in love with it. So, I took advantage of the three-day Qingming Festival holiday to visit Weihai. I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights, and the actual experience was fantastic! From the hotel's **exterior**, it felt like an older four-star, but once I entered the lobby, the overall impression was very neat, clean, and bright. You could tell that the hotel put effort into maintaining its facilities. The staff were also very enthusiastic, even calling a day in advance to confirm my itinerary and preferences. The **service** was excellent. Since I arrived quite late on the first night, after 10:00 PM in Weihai, I booked a **standard king room** for the first night. It offered a street view, not the sea. The room was quiet and very clean, perfect for a good night's rest. On the second day, around 9:00 AM, we moved to the sea-view room I had been looking forward to. I booked the **Deluxe Sea View Terrace King Room**. The room was still very clean and quiet. The interior decoration was on par with a five-star hotel (though the walls were a bit patchy and could use a repaint). Upon entering, there was a bathtub, and then the super large floor-to-ceiling window and terrace came into view. In front of the window, there was a soft sofa, which was incredibly comfortable and relaxing for drinking tea or coffee – it just made me so happy. The view from the terrace was also stunning; the sea was very clear on sunny days. In the evening, you could watch the sunset from the room. What could be more romantic than that? The **breakfast** restaurant was a sea-view restaurant with a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Outside, there was a trestle bridge, the sea, and seagulls – the scenery was absolutely breathtaking. The breakfast selection wasn't super extensive, but it covered most Chinese breakfast essentials, and the taste was good. For a four-star hotel, it was really impressive. The **location** is in Huancui District, not far from attractions like Torch 8th Street. There are also many good restaurants nearby. Downstairs are Jinshatan Beach and the Jinhaiwan Trestle Bridge, where many seagulls hover. The hotel has an elevator that goes directly to the beach, and guests are given an exclusive wristband. For families with children who want to play in the water during summer, it's very convenient – you can go straight back to your room via the elevator to wash up after playing. Overall, the accommodation experience was excellent! Full marks, highly recommended!"

"Service: From the hotel staff to the restaurant waitresses, everyone was lovely and very enthusiastic. Location: It's in a prime spot on Torch 8th Street, very convenient. You can directly access Torch 8th Street from the hotel's second and third floors by elevator, so no need to climb hills, and it's great for photos. Room: We booked a sea-facing room, but trees were blocking the view, so we could barely see the ocean directly, which was a bit disappointing. You definitely need to stay on a higher floor here! And those rooms are even cheaper than ours! Cleanliness: It was just before peak season, so it was getting a bit crowded, and the cleaning wasn't as thorough. There were wrappers from kids' snacks near the sofa and some unidentified hair on the bed. If you like lively places, this is good, but if you prefer quiet, I'd suggest the Golden Sands area; it's less crowded and the hotels there are better. This place feels more like a guesthouse than a proper hotel. Overall, the value for money isn't great, so I wouldn't highly recommend it."

"The hotel is right next to the bus station and very close to the train station. There are also many shops and supermarkets nearby, and car rentals are available on the adjacent road. A bus stop is right outside the hotel. The hotel service is excellent; they respond promptly to requests and meet our needs in a timely manner, which is very thoughtful. This trip had a great 'refueling station'! I'll definitely come back next time."

"The location is excellent, right above Binjiang Plaza. We stayed on the 62nd floor, and the view was absolutely stunning; we could even watch the sunrise from our room – it was truly beautiful. It's very convenient to get to Yantai Mountain, Chaoyang Street, and Hongkou Road, all within walking distance. Even though we were on the 62nd floor, the elevators are divided into high and low zones, making it very efficient. The only issue was parking; it cost 30 yuan per day, and since we stayed for four days, the parking fee was 120 yuan, which felt a bit high. The room was spacious, perfect for traveling with parents and children, especially with two bathrooms, which allowed for privacy – very convenient. We could also cook. All the in-room amenities were complimentary, and they provided over ten bottles of mineral water, plus half a pack of disposable bath towels, also free to use. We could contact them via WeChat if we needed anything, and they would prepare and deliver it promptly. The service was top-notch. Overall, it's definitely worth recommending."

"A warm homestay, the stay experience is super good, I live in a sea view room, and the sea view is the first! Even if you don’t go out and sit by the window and watch the sea, it is a kind of enjoyment. The hotel also has an open-air observation deck. The best place to watch the fireworks show at night is the sea. It is very convenient to go downstairs for shopping and eating. The boss is also super enthusiastic. Provide us with super practical play guides, Longkou is very good, come back next time!"

"The facilities and hygiene were excellent, and the aesthetic was beautiful. I loved relaxing in bed, looking out at the sea. The shower had incredibly strong and consistent water pressure. I really liked the stone-like floors and bathroom. To eat, you have to go out, but I had already planned to try some local specialties anyway, not eat nearby, so a taxi from the entrance was only 10 yuan. I was a bit worried about people being outside the gate, but there were hardly any, and it was completely quiet. The sunken design is quite interesting; I imagine the rooms directly facing the sea above are even more comfortable. The Japanese dessert shop was only a few minutes' walk away, but unfortunately, I had eaten too much that day and had no room for more. Overall, I was very satisfied. The service was very thoughtful, truly a butler-style experience. Location: You can walk to Wheat Island leisurely in about ten minutes, and Sculpture Park is a short taxi ride away. In fact, walking along the nearby area in the morning is also very pleasant, though it gets hot by midday. You can walk along the coastline. There are a few sea-view restaurants within five minutes, though the views are better than the food. The hotel has a very small front desk and no restaurant. If you don't mind this, it's definitely worth considering."

"The layout of the room is more comfortable, the decoration style is very like, the details are a bit poor Facing Dongchang Lake, it is more pleasant to bask in the sun and watch the lake; The sanitary conditions are good, the facilities are relatively complete, and the owner is also enthusiastic Love the breakfast form."
