The hotel I'm introducing today is the Westin Qingdao Hotel, which offers the best value for money! Notable hotels in Qingdao include MGM, Shangri-La, St. Regis, and the much-anticipated Westin Hotel. The biggest advantage of the Westin is that it is close to MixC Mall, Qingdao's representative shopping mall, and you can enjoy the 54th Square and Qingdao sea view at a low price. If you go to Qingdao, I definitely recommend staying at the Westin Hotel for multiple nights. (The food in the lounge is not as good as you think, so I recommend not including it.) Address: 8 Xianggang Middle Rd, Shinan District, Qingdao, Shandong, China 266071 Price range: Early 100,000 won (even on weekends) #Overseas hotel #Qingdao #Qingdao hotel #Marriott Hotel #Qingdao Westin #Westin Qingdao #Qingdao hotel recommendation #Overseas travel #China travel
