Sea View Hotels in Shandong, China

Extended my stay for another day. The super sea view room is an excellent spot to watch the sunset. The next day, I visited Liugong Island, which only took a morning. If you're bringing kids, a guide is a must. We joined a group; you just need 20 people, and it's 20 yuan per person. Never forget national humiliation!!!

I'm reviewing this quite strictly because it's priced the same as the five-star hotel next door. The room and facilities are relatively new, spacious, and very clean. The linens were all comfortable to use. The location and view are also excellent. Here are the downsides I'd like to highlight: The design details of various facilities in the room are quite average. For example, the shower head on the wall couldn't be adjusted, so you had to hold it, and it took a long time for hot water to come out. It was nice that laundry detergent pods were provided with the washing machine, but there was nowhere in the entire room to hang clothes. I suggest adding a retractable clothesline in the shower room. The room's air conditioning and ventilation system didn't work well. It felt stuffy and hot during the May Day holiday, and there was still a noticeable odor in the room, so I had to keep the windows open for ventilation throughout my stay. The TV had no free channels, everything had to be paid for, but thankfully, I could cast from my phone. The breakfast was probably on par with a three-star hotel and needs improvement.

The hotel is located in the city center, right across the street from Suochengli, and just a short walk from Wanda Plaza. It's also very close to Yantai Mountain. During the May Day holiday, parking was difficult, but a taxi ride from the hotel was just the minimum fare. The hotel management is excellent; from the doormen to the front desk staff, everyone is polite, demonstrating the professionalism expected of a star-rated hotel. On May 2nd, it rained on the day of check-in, which disrupted our plans, so we arrived early to see if we could check in. The front desk staff welcomed us warmly without any hesitation. They explained that the room was still being cleaned and that housekeeping had been notified to expedite the process, and also informed us that we could check in a little earlier, which made us feel very reassured. The breakfast was plentiful with a wide variety of options. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

The room's location is absolutely fantastic, right downstairs from the beach. I came during the off-season and paid a total of 200-something yuan, but I used 120 yuan worth of Ctrip points, so I only ended up paying 88 yuan. Talk about value for money! I stayed on the 16th floor, and the sea view was truly unbeatable; I even watched the sunset from the hotel. The bathroom is a bit small, but for 88 yuan and this location, I can't really complain! When I checked out, they even gave me a local specialty. There's a parking lot, and parking is free for guests. The buffet breakfast was quite homestyle and generally good. The room also had a mini-fridge.

An absolutely superb five-star beachfront stay, exceeding all expectations. The hotel boasts an excellent location with breathtaking, unobstructed sea views. The lobby is elegantly decorated and incredibly atmospheric. Our sea-view room was spacious, spotless, and featured high-quality soft furnishings. The bedding was wonderfully soft and comfortable, making falling asleep to the sea breeze and waves incredibly relaxing. Opening the window revealed stunning views of the clear blue sea and sky, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The staff were warm and professional; check-in was fast and efficient, and all our daily needs were met promptly and thoughtfully. Breakfast offered a fresh and abundant selection, and the facilities, including the beach and observation areas, were meticulously maintained. Our entire stay was comfortable and delightful, truly a five-star experience. Highly recommended for a vacation! It truly lives up to its reputation as the best value-for-money hotel in Qingdao. I'll definitely choose this hotel again when I visit Qingdao. Finally, a special thank you to Manager Amanda for her arrangements and care; it was a very satisfying stay.

On the day I checked in, the outdoor temperature in Rizhao was below 20 degrees Celsius, but when I entered the room, I found it was 27 degrees! I called guest services and was told that the central air conditioning hadn't been switched to cooling mode yet, only natural ventilation was available... During the subsequent communication, there were some unpleasant small incidents (details omitted here)... Ultimately, Sun Meng at the front desk (who I believe was the duty manager), through her efforts, offered a solution. Although it didn't fundamentally solve the problem of the high indoor temperature and non-cooling central AC, her proactive attitude in thinking of guests and trying to resolve the issue was commendable.

Right next to the Shangri-La, and less than a 10-minute walk to MixC shopping mall. I stayed for 4 nights. As it's a new hotel, all the facilities are brand new. The breakfast was the most pleasant surprise! There's a wide variety of dishes, especially a good selection of staple foods, and the flow of the buffet is quite well-planned. I particularly loved the 'Sa Tang' (a local soup), the jujube, and the egg, pork floss, and cheese pancake. The breakfast staff and the chefs at the hot food station were all energetic and very good-looking! Especially the chef at the noodle station – he'd always call out to let you know when your order was ready. Couldn't do without him. All in all, great location and excellent value for money! Highly recommended.

There are many homestays on the island, this one must be recommended! First of all, the location of the homestay is very superior, located opposite the Pearl Square, one minute walk to the beach, a real sea view room. Secondly, the boss and the proprietress have a super good personality, are responsive to everything, and will patiently explain every attraction on the island and the characteristics of the surrounding islands and give suggestions for play. The rooms in the homestay are clean and hygienic, with complete facilities and a very comfortable living. The boss has an electric car to ride, it is very convenient to go out and play.

I usually don't leave reviews unless a place is exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. This B&B definitely falls into the 'exceptionally good' category! The owner is incredibly welcoming and goes above and beyond to help with anything you need. The room was spotless, and they'd thought of every little detail. Plus, there's a fantastic sea view right outside the window! Even though I declined daily cleaning, the owner and cleaning staff were still concerned I wouldn't have enough to drink and proactively brought me fresh bottled water. The room was also incredibly quiet and felt very secure! As a solo traveler, I truly appreciated feeling so safe. The B&B's location is super convenient, close to everything, and Hanlefang is right downstairs. I honestly couldn't believe such a great value-for-money place existed at this price. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Weihai!

The location is fantastic, directly facing the sea with a super healing view. The front desk staff, Rain and Parzival, provided attentive and meticulous service, making our entire stay very comfortable. A special shout-out to Manager Jing Dongran, who warmly helped us with the wheelchair and carried our luggage. My elderly family member accidentally dropped their room card on the lobby floor while heading out, and Manager Jing noticed it. Fearing that the elder would be anxious about losing the card and not knowing where it dropped, he chased us for over 100 meters to return it. He was truly thoughtful and considerate, we're very grateful to him!
