Shangri La Qingdao

This hotel offers a fantastic location at a reasonable price. The rooms are well-soundproofed, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep, and the size is perfect for two guests. The staff is highly professional, providing excellent service throughout the stay. Additionally, there's a large shopping mall right next door, making it incredibly convenient. The buffet breakfast offers an impressive variety of delicious options, catering to a wide range of tastes. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

A decent hotel with a very good location, although the feeling is not particularly luxe, it still ticks all the boxes. The rooms are large and comfortable, although my room didn't feel very private as it was in direct line of sight of the tennis courts. Also, as a Jade member I didn't really receive a meaningful upgrade. I did like the large desk in the room, good for business travellers. The rooms are very classically appointed, although carpets were quite stained in places and overall cleanliness was alright, but not perfect. Service is fine but some staff seemed quite stressed and made some small mistakes, overall the vibe didn't feel very 5 star, but also no major issues. Location is a highlight, close to May 4th train station and very close to the mixC mall. Breakfast is pretty decent, with a very large spread, although the taste is fairly average.

Rather dated hotel, I fear, at least the valley wing were I have stayed. Definitely this part of the hotel is due for a renovation. Lounge most definitely not worth it for a western taste. Personnel had a certain attitude, which was incompatible with my expectations - with the exception of one lounge employe how spoke great English and was very helpful and forthcoming. I really did not feel at home in this hotel. At all. I cut my stay short and moved to the Westin Hotel next door. Maybe I just wasn't the kind of customer the were targeting.
