Posted on Aug 12, 2026|Deluxe Two -bed Room
Anonymous UserWhile visiting Qingdao, I decided to spend a day in Jinan and chose the Shangri-La. Before checking in, I called to confirm that my room was ready. The lobby is impressive, and the room was spacious, quiet, and well-equipped. The toiletries were excellent, and I particularly liked the eco-friendly bamboo toothbrushes and combs. The hotel is conveniently located opposite Quancheng Square, perfect for an evening stroll to watch the musical fountain. Baotu Spring is also within walking distance. There are plenty of malls nearby, and both takeout and dining options are easily accessible. The old city, however, is genuinely congested; it took almost 40 minutes to get to Jinan Station by taxi, and I barely made my train. The hotel also seems to offer intangible cultural heritage activities, but I didn't have time to participate. I would definitely choose this hotel again for a more leisurely trip to Jinan.

Guest UserI came for a concert at the Civic Center, so I booked this hotel near the North Station – super convenient! It's just a short walk from the subway exit (and there were still so many food stalls open even after 11 PM when the concert ended, it was amazing!).
It's quite quiet, the bedding is comfortable, and the environment is clean and hygienic. The air conditioning was wonderfully cool.
PS: Thanks to the front desk for even preparing little souvenirs! Both front desk ladies had excellent service attitudes.
Loved it, I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Qingdao.

Guest UserI specifically chose a high-floor sea-view room for this trip, and it was wonderfully cool. Being able to see the ocean every day was fantastic! The room was clean, the environment was comfortable and cozy, and the staff were warm and attentive. The facilities were also safe and reliable! Highly recommend!

Anonymous UserThe hotel has a great ambiance; the lobby is simple yet elegant, and as soon as you walk in, you feel very comfortable. The room decor is simple and cozy, and the cleanliness is exceptional – the floors and surfaces are spotless. The bedding feels high-quality, and it's very relaxing to lie on. The soundproofing is excellent; I barely heard any outside noise at night and slept soundly until morning.
There was plenty of hot water, and the toiletries were well-stocked. The facilities are well-maintained. Della🍓 provided thoughtful service, handled the check-in process quickly, and was very friendly, patiently answering all our questions. The location is also very convenient, with plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options nearby.
I'd also like to specially thank Della and the hotel for the thoughtful arrangements they made for my husband's birthday. The room decorations and cake were a wonderful surprise!

Guest UserBefore our arrival, Xiao Zhang from the hotel proactively called to ask about our needs. Our two room requests (adjoining rooms and a high floor) were both fulfilled. The room service was incredibly responsive, which deserves praise! There's an onsen for rainy evenings, and a beach and pool for sunny days. I heard they also have a pet park and a cat cafe (didn't get a chance to visit), so as a family-friendly hotel, the facilities are quite comprehensive.
I was quite worried after seeing many negative reviews before our trip. While it's true that there are signs of age and some humidity issues, overall, it exceeded my expectations.
I have two suggestions:
1. The welcome fruit could be improved. The current quality is quite average. Perhaps replace it with local specialties like Qing Shi calcium milk biscuits or shell-shaped pastries, which would offer more consistent quality.
2. There were few bed rails, and they didn't seem very sturdy. An upgrade would be appreciated.

BupingfandexiaojiejieI brought my friends to Qingdao again, and I'm incredibly satisfied! 👍
First, let's talk about the accommodation. I booked a Deluxe Twin Room at the Westin, and the room was bright and spacious. The bathroom facilities were complete, quiet, and odor-free. The air conditioning was adjustable and not too noisy – these were all significant improvements compared to my stay at the Westin in Shanghai a few days prior.
Next, the service. The customer service lady proactively asked about my needs, and all my requests – for a quiet room, far from the elevator, and a large room – were met, not just formally. The cleaning auntie was also very enthusiastic and available whenever called.
Then, the hotel's location is just perfect! It's within walking distance of key attractions, and for further places, the subway entrance is right outside. It's also very close to Joy City, making shopping and dining incredibly convenient, with excellent service to boot… Most importantly, Qingdao now offers free subway rides for seniors over 60, which is a thoughtful and touching gesture!
I am very pleased with my hotel choice, proud to recommend this trip, and absolutely full of praise for Qingdao! 👍🌷

Guest UserThe hotel decor is quite new; there was a slight smell on the first day, but it was acceptable. We booked a standard room, but the front desk upgraded us to a deluxe twin room. The breakfast selection was quite extensive, and my child loved it. Additionally, the hotel has a laundry room and a gym. There are many residential areas around the hotel with plenty of food options; the Shuangheyuan restaurant nearby was particularly good. The only downside is that it's not a sea view room. If this room were beachfront, it would easily cost 1500+ yuan during peak season. The staff inside were also very good, especially the auntie in the laundry room, who was very diligent.

Guest UserWe had a wonderful stay at No. 8 Courtyard Homestay (Daming Lake Baotu Spring). We stayed in the duplex room, which was beautifully designed, tasteful, spacious, clean, and very comfortable for our family of four.
The service was excellent and the staff were warm and helpful throughout our stay. We especially appreciated the free laundry service, which was a fantastic convenience for a family travelling together.
The location is also great, with Furong Street close by, making it easy to explore the local sights and enjoy the food and atmosphere.
Overall, a lovely and comfortable place to stay, and we would happily recommend it to families looking for a spacious, well-designed accommodation with great service.

For the first few days of my stay in Qingdao, I booked the compact single room. This time, for two days, I tried the double-bed room with a table and a large window, and it is really excellent for the price.
The room is extremely clean and has all the basic amenities such as a shower, dental kit, and towels. One small difference is that instead of traditional cloth towels, they provide disposable paper-fiber towels. The room is also much more spacious than the single room, even though the price increase is very small. I paid about 55 RMB for the smaller room, while this room cost around 63–64 RMB, but the size is almost double.
The room has a very large window facing the road in front of the hotel. I expected it to be noisy, but surprisingly it was not. There are many power outlets and switchboards, which makes it convenient for charging phones or laptops. The room also has a large TV, along with a table and chair where you can comfortably sit and work.
The staff, as I mentioned earlier, are extremely friendly. By the end of my stay, they almost felt like friends. If you order food or buy items from e-commerce platforms like Jingdong or Taobao, the staff will collect the packages and store them safely on the first floor. Sometimes the delivery person will even bring the order directly to your room.
I stayed on the fourth floor, and the room was very well maintained and spotless. It also includes a hairdryer and hangers. The room I booked had two beds, so if you are traveling with a colleague for business, this is a great option.
The location is not extremely central, but it is still convenient. The nearest subway station is about a 10–15 minute walk, which was not a problem for me. There are also several convenience stores nearby where you can quickly buy snacks or basic items.
Overall, the room is very well maintained, extremely clean, and free of dust. If you are visiting this part of the city, this hotel is definitely a good option to consider.

我在青岛住宿的前几天订的是紧凑型单人房。这一次我住了两天,订的是带桌子的双床房,并且有一个很大的窗户。以这个价格来说,这个房间真的非常不错。
房间非常干净,而且配备了基本的设施,比如淋浴、牙具和毛巾。需要说明的一点是,他们提供的不是传统的布毛巾,而是一次性的纸纤维毛巾。相比之前的小单人房,这个房间的空间要大得多,而价格只稍微贵一点。之前的小房间大约是55元人民币,而这个房间大约是63到64元人民币,但房间的面积几乎是之前的两倍。
房间有一个很大的窗户,面向酒店前面的马路。我原本以为会比较吵,但实际上并没有想象中那么吵。房间里有很多插座和开关,给手机或笔记本电脑充电都很方便。房间里还有一台很大的电视,以及一张桌子和椅子,可以坐下来工作。
正如我之前提到的,酒店的工作人员非常友好。到我离开的时候,我们几乎已经像朋友一样。如果你点外卖或者从京东、淘宝等电商平台购买东西,工作人员会帮你收包裹,并把它们安全地放在一楼。有时候外卖员也会直接把东西送到你的房间。
我住在四楼,房间维护得很好,非常干净,没有灰尘。房间里还配有吹风机和衣架。我订的这个房间是双床房,如果是两个人出差一起住,这是一个非常不错的选择。
酒店的位置不算特别中心,但也算方便。最近的地铁站大约需要步行10到15分钟,对我来说完全不是问题。附近也有一些便利店,可以很方便地买一些吃的或日常用品。
总体来说,这个房间维护得很好,非常干净。如果你来到这个城市的这个区域,这家酒店是一个非常值得考虑的选择。
