Hotels With Pools in Shandong, China

The environment and hygiene are both excellent, and the twin room is very spacious. The surrounding area is nice, and it's super convenient to get to the airport directly from the hotel. The only downside is that it's a bit far from the old town. It's a great choice if you're staying overnight for a connecting flight. Breakfast is optional and can be paid for on-site.

I booked a king-sized bed, but when I got to the lobby, I wanted to ask the front desk if I could switch to two twin beds. The male staff member who was assisting me was about to check when a female front desk staff member at another computer interjected, saying it wasn't possible, they were fully booked with a group today. I'm okay with not switching; I was just asking to see if it was an option, as it would be perfect for my child to have an extra comforter. But I was a bit taken aback by the female staff member's attitude at that moment – haha, just a minor hiccup. The hotel has direct access to Wanda Plaza from B1. In the evening, my mom took two bags of trash downstairs to throw away. She carried them all the way to the 26th-floor lobby but couldn't find a large trash can. When she asked the front desk where she could dispose of them, a male staff member immediately took them from her. We were very grateful, and also a bit embarrassed. The view from upstairs overlooking Suochengli and the city nightscape is absolutely fantastic. The pool is clean, and my child loved it. The staff kept a close eye on the pool, and the rule about changing into slippers before entering the pool was very well enforced. We went to breakfast around 9 am, and there was plenty of food. However, the service quality of the restaurant staff was noticeably lower than the lobby staff. Our table didn't have cutlery, so I had to ask a young male server for some. Later, we ran out of tissues while eating, and when I asked for some, the staff member actually asked me how many I wanted! I jokingly asked, 'How big is one sheet?' Haha, the tissues were so large that my child even asked me to take a picture of him with one. These were all fun little anecdotes, and overall, I was very satisfied. 👍

Whenever I visit Jinan, I always choose this hotel, and the experience is consistently excellent! The location is absolutely prime, right in the heart of the city center. You can walk to Baotu Spring, Daming Lake, and Qushuiting Street in just 10-15 minutes. Downstairs is the Guihe Shopping Center, and it's surrounded by Ginza Plaza and Shimao Plaza, making it super convenient for shopping, dining, and sightseeing. The service is truly impeccable. The front desk staff are efficient and professional during check-in, and the bellhops proactively help with luggage, guiding guests attentively throughout. The rooms are spacious and tidy, with great natural light. The amenities feel high-quality, and attention to detail is evident everywhere. Connie, the quality control manager, provides warm and thoughtful service. The lobby features an elegant New Chinese design, and the rooftop garden offers expansive views overlooking the beautiful city of Jinan. Whether for a business trip or a leisure vacation, this hotel delivers an experience that exceeds expectations. I'll definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Jinan!

The hotel is great, with a good location and facilities, very close to Baotu Spring. Across the street is Henglong Plaza. However, the service has its own unique style. Shangri-La requires a deposit for guests, and for breakfast, you need to show your room card and state your name. What I disliked the most was the constant knocking on the door by staff. I didn't want to use the 'do not disturb' sign, but then there was knocking for laundry, water refills, and various other reasons. If they need something, they should call. I've never seen staff carrying water bottles around, knocking on every door to ask if guests need water – that's a bit odd. The room had already been cleaned and tidied, so why do they keep doing this?

I brought my parents to Qingdao, and I found this Westin to be quite reasonably priced, offering good value for money. We got a suite, and the sofa was just enough for me to sleep on – I'm 5'4” (1.63m), though it was a bit narrow, it did the job perfectly. My parents slept on the large bed inside. The suite has two bathrooms; one right by the entrance and a bigger one further in with a bathtub. The shower area is also very spacious. Breakfast was excellent and had a great variety. The housekeeping staff were also very friendly and accommodating. I think it's really good. Our room faced west, so it got a bit warm in the late afternoon, but since it's April, Qingdao isn't too hot yet. From the 16th floor, you can also see the sea. The overall temperature is still a bit cool, so it felt quite pleasant. If I come back to Qingdao, I'll definitely choose this Westin again. The entrance is right by Metro Line 3, making it super convenient to get anywhere. Across the street is MixC Mall, with plenty of food, drinks, and shopping options. There's also a 7-Eleven nearby, and it's just a 10-15 minute walk to May Fourth Square. I think it's fantastic, absolutely no complaints!

Overall, it was okay. However, there were two things I wasn't too happy about. First, on the day of check-in, I arrived at the hotel at 2:40 PM. The front desk told me that a room had just become available and they would clean it immediately. They said they would call me once it was ready and suggested I go to the lounge for afternoon tea in the meantime. I waited until 3:00 PM, and no one called me. I called the front desk again, and they said the room was still being cleaned and asked me to continue waiting. I said, ”No, the check-in time is listed as 3:00 PM. Why isn't the room ready?” The front desk asked me to wait a moment, waited about twenty seconds, and then said the room was ready for check-in. I was like, ”Huh??” In the end, I did manage to check in smoothly. Second, the soundproofing in the room was very poor. I could hear people talking in the hallway and the opening and closing of doors in the next room very clearly.

This hotel is right by the sea, next to the St. Regis and Hai Tian Mall. It's not far from May Fourth Square and MixC, about a twenty-minute walk or a short taxi ride (minimum fare). The hotel breakfast is excellent, and the seafood buffet dinner offers great value for money with fresh seafood and a wide variety of food and alcoholic beverages. The front desk staff are very welcoming; they helped with my luggage upon arrival and proactively assisted with carrying it to my car when I checked out. They also provided complimentary Laoshan beverages and small gifts upon check-in, and plenty of bottled water. Room service was prompt. On my departure day, they even informed me about road closures due to a marathon, which was incredibly helpful to avoid delays. Overall, I highly recommend staying here.

Coming to Qingdao, staying in the right place really saves half the trouble! This time, I stayed at the Shangri-La Qingdao, and I'm very, very satisfied! 🚇 Super convenient transportation: The hotel is directly above Wusi Square Station on Metro Line 3, making it a direct ride to Zhanqiao Pier, Badaguan, and the railway station. Taxis to any attraction are also within 20 minutes. This location is truly unbeatable! 🛍️ Seamless shopping and dining: The hotel's back door leads directly to MixC Mall, so you don't even need to go outside on a rainy day to explore the mall. In the evening, you can walk to Wusi Square to watch the light show, and stroll back with the sea breeze – a truly fulfilling experience. 🏊 Hotel amenities galore: While the decor is more classic (not the trendy Instagram-style), the service is very attentive. Una and Chloe, in particular, provided excellent and polite service. With a heated swimming pool and a kids' club, it's perfect for letting the little ones burn off some energy.

Great stay at the Pullman, only for one night but could have stayed many more, excellent service from all staff. Highly recommend!
