Crowne Plaza Qingdao Oriental Movie Metropolis

beautiful property, but I only had 6 hours total to enjoy plus the weather was awful, cold and foggy, so barely could see 1 meter from my balcony. the room was comfortable and well appointed, as was the bathroom. the swing open shutters for one to sit and soak in the tub and see the sea out the balcony door (unfortunately I didnt have the time) 5 complaints though: 1) there were perhaps 8 rooms occupied the night I stayed, yet the staff put all guests in the same place, so loud neighbors and cleaning staff without any sense of etiquette could wake me up at 630am 2) VIP lounge was closed 3) pool and gym was closed 4) lighting controls were primitive and one switch by the bed kills all power, including any outlet to charge your electronics... 5)TV was 80% static image, like it was connected to a rabbit ears aerial from 1970s instead of HDMI digital STB. staff was friendly but didnt speak one word of English... I would expect more from a 5 star western chain

Amazing hotel at a very reasonable price. Views across the bay are gorgeous.

Stunning location. Great service and loved the food.

Must pay attention to clean room

Dinner buffet was poor, not enough food, limited menu.
