Enter your dates to see prices and availability for the best Qingdao hotels.
Qingdao is where German beer halls meet Chinese beach culture—you can sip Tsingtao beer at a colonial-era brewery in the morning, snack on garlic-clams at a seafood shack by noon, and end your day watching sunset over golden sand beaches with your toes in the water.
Flying in? You'll land at Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport (TAO), about 50km from downtown. The fastest way into the city is the metro Line 8 (¥7, 45 mins to Qingdao North Station). Airport buses (¥30, 1.5 hrs) run until 10 PM, while taxis cost ¥150-200 (watch for rush-hour traffic).

Getting around:
Hack: Avoid beachfront hotels in July-August—prices triple, and rooms book fast.
1. Zhanqiao Pier & Little Qingdao Island – Walk the historic pier, then hop over to the tiny island for lighthouse views. Early morning = no crowds.
2. Tsingtao Beer Museum – ¥60 gets you a brewery tour + two free beers. The "Drunk Room" (tilted floor) is hilarious after a few pints.
3. Laoshan Mountain – Take a day trip to hike Taoist trails and sip Laoshan mineral water (yes, it’s a thing). Cable car saves your legs (~¥90 round-trip).
4. Shilaoren Beach – No. 1 Bathing Beach is the most popular (and crowded). Shilaoren Beach is cleaner, with better sunset views.
