Barony Park Hotel Qingdao Airport ★★★★

9.3 (799 reviews)

Seaside Adulina Scenic Apartment (Qingdao May Fourth Square) ★★

📍 Apartment D, 11th Floor, Jindu Garden, No. 37 Donghai West Road, Shinan District, Qingdao

"The best decision I made this trip was choosing this guesthouse. It's even more beautiful and refined in person than in the online photos. The entire place was spotless, with no dust in any corners, and the bathroom was dry and odor-free. The bedding was soft and clean, making for a truly relaxing sleep. The decor is simple yet cozy, with plenty of natural light and thoughtful soft furnishings that make every photo opportunity perfect. The host was incredibly helpful, providing clear check-in instructions and even recommending local eateries and less-known attractions. They were also very prompt in answering any questions. The location is convenient for getting around, yet quiet and peaceful. Overall, it felt incredibly comfortable and welcoming, completely exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend it and will definitely choose it again on my next visit. I've already recommended it to my friends!"

Haiyi International Apartment
9.2 (3,358 reviews)

Haiyi International Apartment ★★★★

📍 Tower B, Haiyi Tiancheng, No. 29 Donghai West Road, Shinan District, Qingdao

"Great place for family stay in Qingdao! Location is great, subway station is next to the building. Staff is VERY helpful. We liked everything, especially great view from the high floor over the bay. Beaches around are suitable for sunbathing and swimming. Beach #2 is reachable on foot, and one can get to the others by taxi."

Minguo Hotel (Qingdao Catholic Church)
9.2 (1,054 reviews)

Minguo Hotel (Qingdao Catholic Church) ★★★

📍 No. 31 Zhongshan Road, Shinan District, Qingdao

"The location is fantastic! It's about a 10-minute walk to Zhanqiao Pier and the cathedral, and you can easily walk to attractions like Signal Hill. The mini-fridge was stocked with complimentary drinks, and it was my first time trying Laoshan White Flower Snake Grass Water – it was surprisingly palatable. Breakfast offered a good variety, and the soundproofing was excellent. The only minor drawback was the small room size. Food deliveries were brought to the front desk, and the disposable toiletries were of good quality; the toothbrush bristles weren't too hard. They even provided nail care items and mouthwash. Plus, they kindly extended our check-out time."

Hai Tian Grand Theatre Hotel
9.4 (5,523 reviews)

Hai Tian Grand Theatre Hotel ★★★★

📍 No. 5 Yunling Road, Laoshan District, Qingdao

"This hotel's location is incredibly convenient. The beach is just a short stroll away, perfect for an evening walk. There are plenty of shopping malls and plazas nearby, including Ginza Plaza, which is within easy walking distance. You'll find a wide variety of dining options to choose from. Supermarkets, bubble tea shops, and more are all within walking distance, making everything very easy when you stay here. The hotel itself is also great. The room was spacious, not at all cramped. What I liked most was how quiet it was; I slept really soundly at night. There was also something rather clever – I'm not sure if the hallway had air conditioning or what, but as soon as I entered the room, it was wonderfully cool and comfortable. That feeling in the middle of summer was just perfect. I can't pinpoint where the cool air came from, but I just instantly felt refreshed and it was quite cozy. Overall, if you want convenience without the noise, this place is a perfect fit."

Jinze Hotel (Qingdao Taitung Pedestrian Street)
9.3 (491 reviews)

Jinze Hotel (Qingdao Taitung Pedestrian Street) ★★

📍 No.53 Beizhong Road, Shibei District, Qingdao

"The soundproofing is really poor; I could hear conversations from the next room, and if they spoke any louder, I'd know exactly what they were saying. Plus, there was renovation noise in the morning. The owner was very nice though, and even gave me four bottles of water and a snack pack before I left, but they were too heavy, so I ended up leaving them at the hotel."

Holiday Inn Express QINGDAO CITY CENTER by IHG
9.2 (3,719 reviews)

Holiday Inn Express QINGDAO CITY CENTER by IHG ★★★★

📍 No. 56, Xianggang Middle Road, Shinan District, Qingdao

"Right next to the subway station, so convenient! The service was great, and the place was clean and hygienic. Getting around was a breeze. The breakfast spread was fantastic with lots of options, and my kids absolutely loved it. Plus, they have robot service! Highly recommend."

Qingdao Ethos Hotel
9.6 (7,657 reviews)

Qingdao Ethos Hotel ★★★★

📍 No. 37 Fengsheng Road, Shibei District, Qingdao

"This stay truly exceeded my expectations; overall, it was incredibly comfortable. The location was perfect, with smooth road networks nearby, making it convenient whether taking a taxi, public transport, or driving. We didn't have to worry about commutes or getting around for sightseeing. The breakfast selection wasn't extensive, but the taste was excellent, making for a satisfying meal. The room was exceptionally spacious, never feeling cramped or stuffy. The biggest surprise was the washing machine and dryer, which made it easy to manage clothes even after several days of travel, making the stay as comfortable and hassle-free as being at home."

Atour Hotel Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport
9.3 (2,266 reviews)

Atour Hotel Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport ★★★★

📍 No. 118 Longxiang Street, Ligezhuang Town, Jiaozhou

"A truly satisfying stay! The location is super convenient, really close to the airport. The room was spotless and well-equipped with everything we needed. A special shout-out to the front desk service – they were incredibly responsive and super friendly. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Qingdao and will recommend it to my friends. Five-star rating! The shuttle service to and from Jiaodong International Airport was also very convenient."

Holiday Inn Express QINGDAO WEST COAST by IHG Hotels in Qingdao

Holiday Inn Express QINGDAO WEST COAST by IHG

"I always stay at this hotel when I'm on the West Coast. The price is pretty reasonable, and the breakfast on the second floor offers a good variety of options with generally tasty food, including freshly ground coffee. The staff are very friendly and even arranged a room with a partial sea view, which was great. However, the hallway carpet was a bit dirty this time, so hopefully, they'll improve on that. The hotel is conveniently located near plenty of dining and shopping options, and it's not far from the main attractions either."

MGM Qingdao Hotels in Qingdao

MGM Qingdao

"Highly recommend this hotel! Doris at the front desk provided exceptional and thoughtful service, which was the highlight of our stay. We even got to enjoy MGM's bubble tea in Qingdao! The breakfast area was lovely, and the hotel's location is super convenient, right next to Jinshi Plaza and close to Shilaoren Beach. We received two cute little LEO lion plushies, which our kids adored. A minor regret is that only the 'naked' version of the lion was available. 🦁"

Crowne Plaza QINGDAO by IHG Hotels in Qingdao

Crowne Plaza QINGDAO by IHG

"This is an older, well-established hotel with high standards of cleanliness. The housekeeping staff, especially, replaced the pillows and sheets daily. Amy, the duty manager at the front desk, even gave us a free room upgrade. And the breakfast at Crowne Plaza is fantastic, a great blend of Chinese and Western dishes, with the Western options being particularly authentic. Definitely worth checking out!"

Blue Horizon Hotel (Qingdao Shilaoren International Convention and Exhibition Center) Hotels in Qingdao

Blue Horizon Hotel (Qingdao Shilaoren International Convention and Exhibition Center)

"The hotel's location right next to Beer City is fantastic, and it's super convenient to get to the beach. We received complimentary welcome fruit in our room, and free parking was available right in front of the hotel. They even allowed us a late check-out. The room was spotlessly clean. The only downside is that the hotel is quite old and hasn't been renovated, so the facilities are a bit dated."

Tsingtao Time Resort Hotel

"This is the most comfortable hotel I've stayed at in Huangdao. The amenities are very high-end. The room with the ocean balls, slide, and bunk beds shaped like beer barrels was a unique touch. My kids absolutely loved it, and it made things much easier for us adults. We stayed for three nights, and the breakfast was also quite good. The restaurant next to the hotel offers both Chinese and Western cuisine. My family preferred the Chinese options, so we ate there every day of our stay. It's truly the best choice for a family-friendly hotel."

"The room was decent, and they even upgraded us, which was a nice touch. We were there for our child's exam, and the hotel's proximity to the school was very convenient. Parking was excellent – super easy to find a spot. The dim sum restaurant on the first floor was also good, and the service was top-notch. Definitely worth trying!"

Jinze Hotel (Qingdao Taitung Pedestrian Street) ★★
"I arrived at night, and when I saw the main entrance, I was stunned. No elevator was one thing, but I heard a child crying on the first floor (it turned out to be the owner's little girl throwing a tantrum), which made me want to bolt. Climbing to the second floor, the door and the stone statues gave me goosebumps; I felt like I was about to enter a ******* house. But when I got to the third floor for check-in, the owner literally climbed through the window onto the front desk, which made me burst out laughing and instantly dispelled all my fear. The room had a vintage style, but the lighting wasn't great, the bed felt a bit damp, and the soundproofing was mediocre. There was also an indescribable smell in the room, kind of like... old foot odor? No disposable slippers were provided. However, the shower was really comfortable; the water temperature was stable, and the water pressure was strong. It's also quite close to Taitung Walking Street, within walking distance, and the price was reasonable. The owner was very nice and thoughtful, even offering to help with luggage. It's fine if you're staying with your boyfriend; the price is good, and the location is convenient. But for a solo female traveler, it honestly feels a bit unsettling, so I wouldn't really recommend it."

"Stayed here in Qingdao during the Beer Festival, and the location was super convenient. It's just a few minutes' walk to Taidong Night Market. My child was captivated by the fish tank in the lobby as soon as we entered, and they were quiet in the hotel room. The blackout curtains worked really well, so we weren't woken up by the morning sun. Overall, it was a comfortable stay, and I'd consider coming back here next time I'm in Qingdao."
