Historically relevant

Posted 21 Jul 2017
This hotel is set in the older part of Qingdao. It is a beautiful property. The hotel itself is a bit dated but nice. Beds are hard and toilets are fancy! Staff is very helpful!

Great Hotel in Old Buildings

Posted 1 Jul 2017
Cons: The drain of the shower is very slow, easy to flood the bathroom.
Great location for my purpose. I booked 2 standard rooms but was told not available. The hotel offered us a free-upgrade - a 3-bedroom suite with large family room, all in the attics of an older building. Tired of modern hotels, we gladly accepted.

nice chill castle

Posted 19 Sep 2016 on Hotels
Me and my girl friend booked a suite, We liked the view outside, and the castle is pretty chill, very quite place. No body can bother you over there, and the service is good too. front desk call the text for us to the airport, the breakfast was good too. the room was clean, but there was cigarette butt on the balcony otherwise it will be perfect. over all we had a good time.

Great Getaway

Posted 6 Jul 2016 on Hotels
A friend and I stayed for just one night. It was a great, cute hotel right next to the German ex-Governor's Mansion Museum. Easy walk to a bunch of things. Staff was great.

A different kind of hotel.

Posted 31 May 2015 on Hotels
This hotel is in the German section of Qingdao. The hotel is very clean, and service is good. There is an excellent breakfast that comes with the room. The hotel is decorated with many art works, and is interesting just for that. Staying at this hotel is more like a European experience than a Chinese experience. The surrounding area is nice, but a little difficult to find a taxi to other parts of the city. Make sure you ask the hotel to call a taxi rather than wander out into the streets.

Only if you're looking for somewhere far enough in

Posted 21 Apr 2015 on Hotels
Look, the main reason to stay in this hotel is if you want a remote location away from the city with a beautiful view. there is no other reason to stay in this location: it is about an hour to two hour drive from all the factories and it's far from the city (about 15 to 20 minute cab ride), there are no restaurants in the area and nothing to do around the area. The Hotel itself is nice it's not like the pictures though, it's like walking in to someone's living room: the lobby looks like a nice, like a living room, the rooms are nice and cozy, the hotel is very very strange but it has a nice strangest. The Wi-Fi doesn't work and there are no English channels on TV is a bit of a Only if you're looking for somewhere far enough in the centerbummer . The breakfast is wonderful , we had dinner one night in the German restaurant it's way overpriced but it was the only place around.
