For my Mid-Autumn Festival trip, I chose Jinhai Hotel, right next to Qingdao Station and across from Yinyu Alley. The room wasn't big, but the location was great—super convenient to get anywhere by metro or on foot. Cleanliness was fine too, and the towels and bath towels were sealed in bags. The front desk staff…
You can choose between a standard king room or a twin room. The price is quite a good deal, and it's refundable if you don't book. However, there may be a surcharge on popular dates or public holidays; check the product details page for specifics. After applying the new user price, it's 129 yuan, while the group-buy…
The hotel has an excellent location—convenient for getting anywhere by taxi or on foot. The service is good, cleanliness is well maintained, and the breakfast is quite nice. Although the facilities aren't new, the other strengths more than make up for it. Overall, pretty good 👍

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
