Hotels With spa in Shandong, China

Traveling from Shanghai during the Dragon Boat Festival, I booked a stay at Shangri-La Jinan through Ctrip. The hotel is centrally located, making it incredibly convenient to visit all the major attractions. The front desk staff, particularly Louise Zhao, provided attentive and thorough service, patiently explaining local sights to visit. Plus, there's a 10% discount at the lobby bar when booking through Ctrip. Even though it was a holiday with high occupancy and a busy flow of guests, the overall service was thoughtful, making for a truly perfect stay!

The location is great, and the service is decent; the butler was very responsive. Stepping out of the backyard leads right to a huge beach, which is perfect for kids. The indoor swimming pool is clean and not crowded, with a dedicated splash area for toddlers, which is really excellent. There's also a large outdoor pool in the backyard that's very nice. All in all, the kids loved it and had a blast. My wife, on the other hand, felt the hotel was a bit dated and wasn't too fond of it, finding parts of it a bit unclean. However, it's really just the wear and tear of time, as the hotel has been open for 15 years, so it's bound to show its age. Overall, I still think it's a very good place, and I might even go back in the future.

The Westin Qingdao has an excellent location, very close to May Fourth Square and the commercial district, making it super convenient for getting around, sightseeing, shopping, and finding places to eat. Staying on the Executive Floor offered outstanding views; I could take in the stunning sea views right from my window. The Executive Lounge experience was superb, with a wide variety of food. The staff were attentive and responsive, providing meticulous service throughout my stay. It was a comfortable and pleasant stay, perfect for a trip to Qingdao.

It was great to stay in this hotel in Weihai for three nights. The location is very good, just opposite the Weihai Campus of Shandong University. You can reach the No. 1 Beach and Torch 8th Street by crossing the campus. The most satisfying thing is the food and beverage in this hotel. The breakfast is super rich and delicious. By the way, the hotel also offers a set meal of sea intestines and rice. The price is acceptable and it is also very delicious. If I have the chance to go to Weihai, I will stay in this hotel again. When I left the hotel, I was given a gift bag of snacks that my children love to eat. It was full of sincerity.

Hardware: The room facilities meet five-star standards, with two sinks for guests to have their own independent space. Hygiene: The room is relatively clean. The only downside is that after running water in the bathtub, there was a musty smell coming from underneath it. Service: The front desk staff were all very understanding and considerate. They helped us extend our stay, recognizing that the elderly traveler was tired from their journey. Transportation: If you're catching a flight the next day, this hotel is perfectly suited. There's a direct通道 connecting to the airport right next to the breakfast area, and it's about a ten-minute walk.

The hotel's location is super convenient, really close to the high-speed rail station, making travel a breeze. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was comfy, and the soundproofing was excellent. The front desk staff were warm and efficient. We had stable 24-hour hot water and smooth Wi-Fi. Overall, it was a great stay with excellent value for money. I'll definitely choose this hotel first for my next trip.

Having visited Qingdao many times, I thought I knew all the local attractions. However, after checking into the Shangri-La, Guest Relations Manager Cherry's recommendations for lesser-known spots unlocked a whole new way to experience Qingdao. Tired of the overcrowded, Instagrammable sites like Zhanqiao Pier and Badaguan, I was looking for quiet, off-the-beaten-path viewpoints. Cherry, understanding my preferences, suggested heading up Signal Hill to the revolving observation deck. From there, you get a panoramic view of the old town's red roofs and azure sea, with fewer crowds – perfect for photos, and a great way to avoid large tour groups. For dining, she recommended Grandma Haiyan's Seafood Potsticker, an old local favorite. The cuttlefish potstickers, with their thin skin and generous filling, are a hidden culinary gem on Zhongshan Road. Cherry's communication was professional and poised, and she proactively shared tips on avoiding common tourist traps and expenses at attractions. While the hotel's accommodation quality was impeccable, it was Cherry's professional yet passionate service that truly stood out, breaking the stereotype of conventional front desk service. She thoughtfully curated a personalized itinerary for me, resulting in an exceptional experience. Definitely worthy of a five-star recommendation!

The Mandarin Hotel is located on Starlight Island in the West Coast New Area, surrounded by the sea and boasting stunning island scenery. As soon as you arrive, you can feel a sense of tranquility, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The sea breeze creates a wonderful vacation vibe. However, there was an entertainment event on the island that day, so it was incredibly crowded. Stepping into the hotel lobby, the elegant and grand design perfectly blends with marine elements. The glass dome and crystal chandeliers complement each other beautifully. What impressed me most was the self-playing piano in the lobby; its melodious tunes flowed under the dome, adding an artistic touch to the entire space and instantly washing away any travel fatigue. My business twin room was spacious, clean, and tidy. The floor-to-ceiling windows offered breathtaking panoramic sea views. Drawing back the curtains in the morning, I was greeted by the magnificent sight of the sunrise over the ocean. The room was well-equipped, the bedding was comfortable, and every detail showcased quality. The hotel's amenities are excellent. The complimentary indoor pool has clear, well-maintained water and is a good size. It's very well-regulated; you need a swimming cap to use it, and there's also a sauna and hot spring. The gym is fully equipped, and in addition to exercise machines, there's a table tennis room and an aerobics room. The hotel garden is charming, with European-style stone carvings adding a unique flair. Just outside, there's a seaside boardwalk, perfect for enjoying the sea breeze. Parking and EV charging were very convenient, and the staff provided attentive and thoughtful service, making my entire stay, from check-in to check-out, feel incredibly welcoming.

The parking lot has ample spaces, the plaza is large, and parking is free. The lobby manager, Ms. Liu Xin, was very welcoming, and the front desk staff were also very professional. The concierge provided luggage storage, excellent assistance with getting in and out of vehicles, and package pickup services. Overall, the experience was excellent. The rooms have large, bright windows, and the breakfast was delicious and varied. The location is convenient, with many restaurants nearby. Transportation is very convenient. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with my stay. Hot towels and warm water were available at the bar for handwashing.

Overall, I'm very satisfied with the hotel. Upon check-in, we were given two popsicles and two beers. We were told that we could enjoy free-flow beer from check-in until 10 PM. We're not big drinkers, but the beer was really good, haha. The check-in experience was excellent, and the service was also great. Every staff member at the hotel was enthusiastic and polite, which was a huge plus. The hotel is very close to Beer City. We really wanted to experience the lively atmosphere there, but when we asked a waitress at the 1903 Beer Workshop, she told us that we just needed to consume something at their place and didn't need to go to Beer City behind it. Later, we felt this waitress was really unhelpful. She told us which tables were reserved and that reserved tables didn't have a minimum spend, then she tried to guide us to tables that *did* have a minimum spend, saying we could order a set meal. We don't like set meals, and a minimum spend is fine, but not everyone likes everything in a set meal. Later, a male server told us there was no minimum spend regardless of where we sat. We didn't order a set meal, just what we wanted, but we found the food to be generally not good and wouldn't recommend it. After dinner at the 1903 Beer Workshop, it was late, but we still went to Beer City behind it and it was very lively. We feel the worst part about this hotel was some of the female staff at the 1903 Beer Workshop; their service attitude was a bit poor. They really need some training.
