The breakfast had an excellent variety of Western and Chinese food and was very delicious! The rooms matched what was advertised on their website and were very clean. Also the beds were comfortable and the view of the sea was fantastic. The staff were friendly and helpful and could speak an appropriate and professional level of English. I will definitely stay here again!

Very nice hotel with friendly staff! Nice room!

The view and the buffets were the only bonuses for staying there.

Check in and check out at the front desk was a nightmare, only 2 front desk staff for at least a dozen people waiting to be checked in & out, and no one helping me with my luggages, I have to drag 2 very heavy large luggages to my suite upon check in and to the car outside when I checked out, all by myself!! The air con in the room was horrible, I couldn’t sleep for the 2 nights there, only one air con control panel for the entire one bedroom suite, the air con was noisy and blasting air onto my head the entire night, terrible indeed. The floorings of the room were very run down and squeaky.

The location was a little bit sleepy. There's not too much around but the waterside was beautiful and since it was a sunny day, we enjoyed walking around.

The room lighting is very confusing. There are way too many buttons and they don't always have the same effect.

My partner and I spent five days at the Huangdao Sheraton hotel two weeks ago. We had to wait quite a long time before it was our turn to proceed to check-in. It's high season so there were a lot of customers. That said, it is the role of a hotel to anticipate this problem. When it was our turn to check in, we found out that it is mandatory to enter the Health QR code of Shandong Province. This is quite normal and we understood it perfectly. However, it was a very time-consuming process (several hours before validation) and we believe that the hotel (or Booking.com) could and should have sent us the link in advance. Nevertheless, the employee in charge of our check-in was very friendly, efficient and understanding. May she be thanked here. She guided us in good English and requested special permission from the management so that we could still access our room. Our room was clean and comfortable. However, apart from the presence of a bathtub, it doesn't really differ from other hotels in the big cities of this country with a much lower rate per night. As a reminder, the price per night in this hotel corresponds more or less to half of the average legal minimum wage in China. We therefore expected to stay in a classy hotel. But it's the details that is supposed to create class, and not the name nor the price. We learnt it quickly the hard way. First of all at the breakfast buffet (128 rmb). The number of dishes were quite large. But there were very little renewal from day to day. But above all, the products chosen were of poor quality. Cakes and pastries were not made on site. These were industrial products thawed, reheated and cut on site. As for cheese and cold cuts, they were chosen from the lowest categories. I know this because I myself often buy the same brands in Metro stores. I expected something better from a meal in a multi-star hotel. In addition, every day, throughout the meal, the same music was played over and over again.

Location, personnel, breakfast very good

Very small pool and usually occupied for swimming classes, a little old equipment in the room
