Hot Springs Hotels in Shandong, China

The hotel boasts a grand architectural design and numerous rooms, reflecting the style of an established star-rated hotel. Upon entering the room, there was a noticeable musty smell. However, the mattress was very thick and incredibly comfortable to sleep on. We ran out of tissues in the room, but the housekeeper promptly brought some when we requested them. There were no disposable bath liners for the bathtub, and they weren't available for purchase, which is an area where service could definitely be improved. Given its large scale, the hotel could consider offering childcare services similar to Club Med. A kids' play area with soft play structures, slides, and a ball pit would be a great addition, allowing parents to relax. There was no buffet available. With such a large property, inter-departmental communication seems to be an issue. The information provided by the housekeeper for the 1928 Beer Bar's dining options was incorrect. After checking out, the housekeeper asked for a good review. I provided some suggestions, but the housekeeper, 'Dabaitu' (Big White Rabbit), never replied. It feels like the service in northern China is often a 'do-it-because-my-boss-told-me-to' mentality, and any extra requests from guests are seen as an inconvenience. I really liked the breakfast buffet where many of the attendants were older, creating a very harmonious atmosphere, like being cared for by parents while away from home. The breakfast selection was extensive. There are two swimming pools, one indoor and one outdoor. Cat petting costs 19.9 for children and 29.9 for adults, with single entry and unlimited time. Feeding animals costs 10 yuan, which includes one portion of feed. **However, if you write a good review for 1 yuan, you get fewer carrots than the 10 yuan portion. The animals seemed a bit pathetic, with the little horse constantly kicking the wire fence.** There are two swimming pools, both indoor and outdoor. The buffet at the 1928 Beer Bar is more Western-style. Many people might not be used to it. We tried it, and the quality of the desserts was excellent! There's a beach right behind the hotel, with some rocks, but not too many. You can go tide pooling in the early morning and at night. It's too hot during the day due to strong sun, and there isn't much seafood to find then either. The package included access to the Haiquanwan Hot Springs, but I must mention: it was dirty. There were no tissues or disposable combs in the hair-drying area (only a few scattered combs for everyone to share). With this level of service, I won't be returning. The hotel's location is indeed a bit remote, making it suitable for self-driving. There's a Shandong University cafeteria and museum nearby, which I'd give five stars!

The room was very spacious, and we booked one with a large bathtub, which our kids absolutely loved. The hotel has direct elevator access to the hot springs, which was incredibly convenient. The hot springs area is huge, with a kids' playground and even a children's water park. Highly recommended! It would have been even better if the room had baby bathrobes and slippers ready.

This was my second stay here, and the hotel service was excellent. Miss Lin Feng at the front desk was incredibly responsive to all my requests, and even reminded me when I left something in my room. The breakfast selection was extensive. This time, I stayed in Building 5, which is right next to the unpowered playground and soccer field, and my little one had a fantastic time playing there.

A perfect trip! From the moment I arrived, I was stunned by the view. Sitting in the bathtub or lying in bed, gazing at the sea and listening to music, my soul felt completely purified. The croissants for breakfast were delicious, and from the window, I could see so many interesting things happening outside – like couples taking wedding photos, which made me feel surrounded by happiness. Before sunset, you can catch the most beautiful evening glow from here. It's so pleasant and comfortable. My nearly three-day trip left me lingering, I really loved this guesthouse!

A very warm business trip. The reception at the front desk was very enthusiastic. I took a special look at the receptionist, his employee number was 057, thank you. The next day, I was in a hurry to go out to do something and threw my used socks on the floor. When I got back to the hotel, the staff had already washed it for me. Although the matter is small, it makes me feel warm inside. Thank you service staff.

Loved our stay at this accommodation. Great location, even if you don’t have your own transport like us. Laoshan beach and the entrance to Laoshan mountain are a 15 minute walk, or a 5 minute bus ride with the bus stop opposite the Moya. The Moya itself has easy access to a rocky shore, perfect for adults and children alike to explore, relax or take amazing sea view photos, as well as a small beach area. The small hotel grounds are very quaint, with a peaceful vibe. Our balcony had a picturesque sea view, with a mountain view behind the hotel. The accommodation is very clean and the staff are extremely friendly, approachable and helpful.

The moment I step in the hotel, can smell the herbal scent which is very soothing. Room is big and comfortable. Upgraded to family room with a sauna which was great. Love the herbal hot spring, very relaxing. The service was very good, especially 小懂， he was very helpful and always patient and polite. I would say of all my stays in this trip, this has the best service. Beddings and pillow were clean and fluffy like 5 stars hotel. On the side note, location of the hotel is abit out of way, have to walk a while to get to eateries. But there’s always food delivery so it’s ok. And there’s a convenience store at the lobby. Design and layout of room can be abit better, the window between the hot spring area and beds were too bright for a good sleep so it will be good to put up a curtain or blind there.

The room was clean and tidy, and provided a large bottle of water, fruit platter, yogurt, and cookies. There was also a small tent, plush toys, building blocks, and a rocking horse, which the children loved. The breakfast was plentiful, and the hot spring was fantastic. The butler was very responsible, handling everything from booking, check-in, and check-out perfectly; their service deserves a thumbs up! At check-out, both kids received a small gift, which made them very happy. A delightful day; we'll definitely come back for a vacation again.

The resort offers a stunning view and beautiful natural surroundings. However, there were a few challenges, especially for international travelers. Pre-arrival information was limited, and important details like the need to register vehicles in advance to enter the scenic area were not clearly stated on the website. I only learned about this by messaging the hotel via WeChat, which may not be accessible to all foreign guests. While the location was excellent, room maintenance could be improved for the price. The pool tub was not well maintained. As the resort is set in nature, it’s also worth noting that insects may be present in the room or bed. Overall, a scenic stay, but more proactive communication and better upkeep would enhance the experience, particularly for foreign visitors.

The hotel's location is great, and since I booked a room with a view, the scenery was fantastic with some picturesque spots perfect for photos. However, the breakfast selection wasn't up to par for a five-star hotel; it wasn't varied enough. Plus, there was no doorman service at the hotel lobby entrance. Shockingly, the bathroom windowsill had a crack, which wasn't mentioned during check-in. After I switched rooms, I found the new room's fridge was broken and had a strange smell. I really hope the hotel can make some improvements. On the positive side, the front desk and other staff members were very friendly and helpful.
