#Rizhao Sheraton Hotel Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Shandong Short-Distance Travel: Hotel Recommendations for the Mini-Holiday
Recently, I chose the incredibly beautiful Rizhao for a suburban trip, which gives a quiet and comfortable feeling. The poetic natural scenery, the blue sea, the golden beaches, and the lush tea gardens make it a perfect place for living, traveling, vacationing, and life. This time, I stayed at the Rizhao Sheraton Hotel again. It's really nice. It feels like the mini-holiday is coming soon, and everyone who comes here to play can stay here. The transportation is very convenient; it's just a ten-minute walk to Wanpingkou, and the surrounding facilities are very complete. Moreover, the service is very enthusiastic. Since I am a Marriott Platinum member, they proactively upgraded me to a suite when I checked in. The location and view are really amazing~ The hotel room environment is also very good, very comfortable, and the experience is superb! This season, the cost-performance ratio is really explosive, and the staff's attitude is very good, able to solve any problems promptly. Oh right, their buffet is also very delicious, and it feels great to have a package with double breakfast included!
The most, most, most important thing is that the living environment in the room is really nice, with large floor-to-ceiling windows, and the automatic curtains open to let in superb natural light~
The hygiene aspect is also well taken care of, making the stay very reassuring and comfortable~

Is this considered the pinnacle of Sheraton hotels in China? Watching the sunrise, watching the waves
I have stayed at four renovated Sheratons in China this year, namely in Mianyang, Xiangshan, Ninghai, and this time in Rizhao, and luckily, I got suite upgrades at all of them haha. I must say, the Sheraton brand is amazing after the renovation, with a very on-point overall design style and hardware facilities. As for the software aspects like dining and concierge services, everyone's experience may vary slightly, so which one do you think is the pinnacle of Sheraton hotels in China?
The location is very central, next to the Wanpingkou Lighthouse, but it's not directly by the sea. Instead, it's in a bay, and the rooms have a sea view but there's no beach downstairs. The lobby is the most beautiful I have seen in all the hotels I've stayed at, with a very impressive atrium and a staircase that's great for taking portraits, giving off a bit of a St. Regis vibe. The lounge, elevator area, and corridors are also full of design.
The room was upgraded to a sea-view suite, with a decor style similar to other Sheratons, pretty standard. The living room has a balcony where you can go out, and you can see the beautiful sea sunrise directly from the balcony in the morning.
The dining and concierge services are in line with Sheraton's standards. There were no cold dishes for breakfast, but the omelets were tasty, and everything else was normal. A more significant issue was seeing many guests wearing room slippers around, suggesting that the hotel is still too new and hasn't learned from certain experiences.
I went to the Shanhai Tian Sunshine Coast myself. The sand isn't fine, but the sea is still very blue, and there are many small scenic spots along the shore that are great for taking photos, like the love dead tree branches, the carousel, the crow's nest, Jay Chou's clear sky, and the building that looks a bit like the Aranya Church. The sea in winter is also very romantic. If you don't want to go out too early in the morning, you can watch a lighthouse sunrise from the room's balcony and then go back to sleep.
