Pet Friendly Hotels in Shandong, China

My stay at the Hilton Yantai Shimao exceeded all expectations! The hotel boasts a prime beachfront location, and the floor-to-ceiling windows in my room framed the stunning blue ocean and city skyline like a moving painting, especially the breathtaking sunset in the evening. The service was impeccable, from the efficient and warm front desk staff to the meticulous and thoughtful room service – every employee was genuinely friendly and always ready to assist. The breakfast spread was fantastic 🎂, with the local seafood noodles being a particular highlight. The well-equipped fitness center and indoor heated pool allowed me to stay active during my trip. Whether for business or leisure, this is the perfect choice for a visit to Yantai. I'm already planning my next stay!

The environment was very clean and hygienic. While the room wasn't particularly spacious, its layout was very efficient. The soft bedding ensured a very comfortable sleep, the air conditioning cooled the room quickly, and the Wi-Fi signal was consistently stable. The only minor drawback was some noise from the street-facing room, though this improved significantly once the windows were closed. The front desk staff, especially a young lady, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Both check-in and check-out processes were swift. She even proactively recommended some fantastic local restaurants nearby. Room service was also prompt and responsive.

My stay at the Golden Coast Hilton in Yantai was absolutely perfect this time, with the impeccable service and breathtaking sea views being the absolute highlights. Upon arrival, the concierge proactively helped with our luggage, and check-in was incredibly smooth and efficient. They even thoughtfully upgraded us to a high-floor sea view room. Every staff member we encountered was smiling and friendly, actively helping with elevator buttons, patiently recommending nearby attractions, and even the room cleaning was meticulous, with lovely origami decorations placed on the desk. The 180-degree floor-to-ceiling window in the room was the biggest surprise. Opening the window revealed the vast blue sea and golden beach. I woke up to the sound of waves in the morning and enjoyed the dazzling lights of Tianma Zhancao (Tianma Pier) in the evening. The stunning blend of sea and sky cured all my fatigue. The hotel is just a few minutes' walk directly to the beach, which is fine and clean, creating a perfect vacation vibe. Comfortable bedding, Winnie's attentive service, and the unbeatable sea view made this trip exceptionally pleasant. Both the service details and the scenic experience far exceeded my expectations. This is definitely my top choice for a sea-view stay in Yantai, and I will certainly stay here again next time!

This is a newly built hotel with trendy amenities like smart toilets, air purifiers, and large-screen TVs. The cleanliness is excellent. The environment is beautiful, and the courtyard-style rooms are quite unique. The service is warm and attentive. The Chinese breakfast was decent. The hotel's location is superb, just a few minutes' walk from the entrance to the Three Confucius Sites. It offers great value for money and comes highly recommended.

I'll just talk about the shortcomings. Look at the merits of others. First of all, let’s just say, can you believe that in a room with an area of ​​more than 1,500 people, the sewer pipe is leaking? The odor was so severe that there were no doors to the bedroom or bathroom. I can only sleep with the smell. Second, I booked a room with a panoramic king bed, but the glass was covered with mud spots. , which greatly affects the view of the sea. Third, the entire hotel is in a semi-finished state. The bar downstairs is still being renovated, and the sound of electric drills can be heard from time to time. Fourth, the rights and interests prompt that you can upgrade the room type for free, but the front desk tells you that the upgrade is not possible, and you have already booked the highest room type. I checked and found that there are actually more than 2,000 rooms left. If you don’t want to upgrade, just tell me. Fifth, the hygiene is worrying, the sofa cushions are dirty and the sink is dirty. Sixth, the decorators piled the corridors with building materials, which looked very vivid. I understand, it's decoration, but talking on the phone loudly in the corridor really affects your rest. I really can't stand this. That's all. Finally, I suggest everyone to check in to the castle, order a cup of coffee, sit here and take photos. The 1,500 yuan to stay in the hotel is just a waste.

The best decision I made on my trip to Weihai was choosing this hotel right by the sea! The location is absolutely perfect, right in the heart of Torch Eight Street. It's just a few minutes' walk to all the famous street views, and you just cross the road to reach the beach and the ocean. It's incredibly convenient for sightseeing and exploring.

The room was clean and hygienic, and very close to the Taierzhuang Scenic Area, just 400 meters from the West Gate. The lovely receptionist warmly introduced the Taierzhuang tour itinerary and sent us the performance schedule and tourist map of the scenic area to our phones for easy viewing and reference. She also helped us carry our luggage upstairs and recommended affordable restaurants for us, repeatedly telling us to contact her if we needed anything. Before we left, she even gave us Shandong pancakes. The hospitable Shandong girl was warm and simple, making us feel at home.

While visiting Taishan looking for a hotel that had connecting rooms or a family suite the options are limited but we found the Jianguo Hidden hotel family suite was perfect for our needs. The hotel is brand new with works still being done on the 1st floor, and swimming pool but this didn't affect our stay. The hotel is built as pert of a residential complex and the interior layout of the rooms reflects the original intent of an apartment meaning the bathroom and toilet are together and a bit squashy. The are is quite new so there isn't much around, but within a short walk there is a bunch of restaurants and a supermarket. A good base to head to Taishan. If you drive an electric car almost all bays in the carpark were fitted with slow chargers, good for an overnight top up..

The hotel was poorly prepared for the festival season. I arrived at 4 p.m., an hour after my scheduled check-in time, only to be told that my room was not ready and that I would need to wait another 50 minutes. I waited in the lobby for about an hour, but the room was still not available. The staff asked for my phone number so they could call me once it was ready, as I had to leave to meet a friend. They eventually called around 6:30 p.m. to let me know the room was prepared. When I returned to the hotel after dinner, I discovered there was no drinking water in the room. At first, I assumed this might be part of an ESG initiative, but I later had to go out late at night to buy water. On the second day, the staff gave me half a dozen bottles, and I realized they had simply forgotten. That was not the only oversight—they also forgot to close the balcony door. As a result, the room was extremely humid despite the air conditioning running at full power. I initially assumed the humidity was due to being near the sea, but on the second day I noticed the balcony door behind the curtain had been left partially open. Overall, the hotel seemed overwhelmed by the large number of visitors attending the beer festival. The location is convenient for the beach, though public transportation, such as the metro station, is a bit farther away. The facilities are somewhat dated and lack modern features such as fancy toilet seats, but the rooms are fairly spacious, likely because the hotel is not in the city center.

The house was clean and tidy, with all kinds of facilities. The double bed was very comfortable, and the customer service was very welcoming. They upgraded us to a family room. The key point is that it is right next to Wanda Plaza, which is very convenient for dining, entertainment, and leisure. We took a taxi here after climbing Mount Tai, ate here, and stayed for one night. It was very convenient and worth recommending!
