Stayed at Shandong Hotel to check out the Portman design, and it was quite a pleasant surprise. The front desk staff were very helpful—after check-in they took my suitcase up to the room for me, and takeout is delivered by robot so you don't have to go down and get it. The hairdryer is a Dyson (Shangri-La charges way…
When traveling with kids, hotel cleanliness is very important. This hotel is quite clean, and the breakfast is plentiful. The breakfast staff—Huang Ruirong, Yang Xia, and Shi Yanxin—were very friendly and even prepared yogurt and bread that my little one likes to take away. 👍 My kid also loved the pool on the third…

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 →
