Hotels in No.1 Bathing Beach and Badaguan Scenic Area, Qingdao

The location is very good, five minutes out is the sea, the service staff is very efficient, the check-in and check-out are very fast, the room can see the sea, the weather is beautiful, the air conditioning sound is a bit big, the facilities are slightly old, and the overall is good.

The room was impeccable, featuring a stunning floor-to-ceiling window with panoramic sea views, a spacious and impeccably clean king-size bed, breathtaking scenery, and a captivating light show at night. The sumptuous breakfast and afternoon tea were truly delightful, and the fruit platter was a particular highlight for my wife. The convenient car service, the manager's dedication and professionalism, and the doormen's thoughtful and attentive service all contributed to an exceptional stay. A huge thank you to all the staff for their exceptional efforts; Haitian truly lives up to its reputation as a 'super five-star' hotel. Beautiful Qingdao, and the grand, luxurious Haitian left us with unforgettable memories and made us long to stay longer. We wish Haitian Hotel continued prosperity and even greater success! We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Pros: The hotel's location is fantastic – easily walkable from Qingdao Railway Station and directly adjacent to a vibrant pedestrian street with endless shopping and dining options. While the entrance is modest, the hotel houses a good number of rooms. We booked a twin room (one larger, one standard bed), and the complimentary toiletries were of decent quality. Service was pleasant, and breakfast offered a good selection. Breakfast is served at the dumpling restaurant next door, where we also had a delicious, value-for-money lunch – highly recommended! Cons: However, the room was quite small (think budget hotels like Home Inn). The bathroom was also cramped and felt like an afterthought, with an exceptionally loud toilet flush. You'll struggle to fully open even a 20-inch suitcase.

The room was spotless and well-equipped, featuring a charming retro-style courtyard design. Most importantly, it's located right on Shangjieli Pedestrian Street, which I consider Qingdao's best spot for photos, shopping, and soaking in the local vibe (Yinyu Lane is close but doesn't compare). As soon as you step out, you're surrounded by various small shops, so you'll have no trouble finding food, drinks, or entertainment. Don't bother booking breakfast with your room; there are plenty of breakfast options right across the street. You're also right on the famous Zhongshan Road. The Cathedral is just a short walk away, and if you head south for about 800 meters, you'll reach Zhanqiao Pier, perfect for playing in the sand by the sea. On your way back, a seafood meal at '1937' is highly recommended and truly satisfying. The hotel also has a designated, very convenient parking lot, just about a 5-minute walk away. For day two, if you plan to drive to Badaguan, simply search for 'Badaguan Scenic Area Taipingjiao 1st Road Ground Parking Lot' for convenient parking. From there, you can walk along the coast directly to Huashi Lou (Flower Stone Building) and then explore the area's other attractions at your leisure.

The location is excellent, and as a standalone building, it offers a great environment. Our room on the 5th floor was very quiet. Most facilities have been updated and are in excellent condition. We appreciated that the floor drain had no odor and drained smoothly, and the shower offered strong, consistent water pressure. The towels were thoughtfully disinfected and sealed in plastic bags. Both the air conditioning and the Xiaomi air purifier operated silently. Breakfast was generous, and the staff were all very attentive and had excellent attitudes. Minor drawbacks: The electric curtains couldn't be paused midway. The bathroom was quite small, and the mural above the toilet was unappealing. Furthermore, the bedside tables and desk surfaces were made of outdated, rather shabby plywood.

The room is large, very new, very clean, and the bed is comfortable, which is the biggest advantage of this time. The location is close to the beach, the service staff is very good, and you can borrow an umbrella when it rains. The corner of the room on the second floor is at the intersection of traffic jams. The sound of pedestrians and vehicle horns will wake up in the morning. The most regrettable thing is that more than a thousand rooms do not include breakfast. I have not seen people eating breakfast on the first floor for a few days. I am worried about what to eat every morning. I can order takeaway and go to the takeaway cabinet on the first floor. Very inconvenient.

I came to Qingdao with my bestie to relax for three days. Manxi gave us a very good experience. First of all, the service staff was very good. Breakfast was delivered to the room on time. There were both Western and Chinese breakfasts. Unfortunately, we were in a hurry and did not experience afternoon tea. Secondly, the accommodation environment was also very good, clean and quiet. The toiletries were byredo and the hair dryer was Dyson. Finally, it was unexpected that the photo effect of the retro villa was not bad~ps. It is very close to the check-in point of Qingdao Red Wall and can be reached on foot~

Facilities: The room was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The butler service was very attentive and thoughtful. Hygiene: Spotlessly clean, the temperature was perfect, and there were no unpleasant odors. The soundproofing was also excellent. Environment: The traffic getting here was incredibly congested, so I'd strongly advise against driving. A heads-up about peak times to avoid would have been really helpful. Qinyu Road Instagrammable Couple's Afternoon Coffee & Cake: Both the cake and coffee were of excellent quality, truly great from presentation to taste. However, the service attitude wasn't as good as what you'd find at a guesthouse. When verifying our room number, the staff quickly scanned one page and immediately claimed they couldn't find our booking, despite it being on the very next page. They came across as quite impatient and unprofessional. Nevertheless, the ambiance and the food quality were excellent, and the breakfast was also delicious.

Location is very convenient indeed, with the metro almost at the door, a modern shopping mall and a supermarket across the road. Front office and hotel staffs are polite and responsive. Downside: aircon temperature cannot be set although there is a control panel in the room. Room is too cold and felt “damp”. The lighting in the bathroom is too dark. Difficult for makeup. Bath towel has holes. Coffee at breakfast is very bitter, the worst grade I have had in my four hotels stay in Shandong.

Great location, just next to QingDao Railway~ very convenient! Room is clean and comfortable, except the aircond during this weather are not cold enough=( Front desk are friendly too~ with warm welcome dessert and little souvenir when check-out❤️
