InterContinental Qingdao by IHG l Inside the Olympic Sailing Center l May Fourth Square

The hotel lobby is so grand and photogenic, packed with marine water-drop elements that instantly catch your eye.Its location is simply unbeatable. You're right by the sea, facing Fushan Bay directly,step outside and you're at the Olympic Sailing Center. Book a sea-view room, and you can even catch the mesmerizing sea-view light show from your window.The service truly lives up to InterContinental's reputation. Staff proactively helped with our luggage—no need to ask twice!The breakfast buffet? A seaside feast with a view! The spread is huge, and you've got Qingdao specialties like freshly cooked seafood dumplings, crispy fried fish, and succulent shrimp.For my next trip to Qingdao, this place is still my top pick—no doubt about it.

Great location, lovely entrance and easy to get a taxi, 30 minutes at non-peak time to get to Qingdao station. Really early in the morning - it took only 16 minutes! Helpful staff, reception and waiters,- spoke English - lucky me! Spacious room with comfortable, big bed, good bathroom, room service menu mixture of Chinese and Western. I had a bit of both - tasty. A very pleasant stay.

Was a lovely stay in general. Great location. Fantastic view! Spacious room. Friendly service. Facilities are a bit dated, although still functioning. The breakfast was rich in variety but slightly disappointing in quality.

We would like to express our special thanks to Barry. Extremely professional, competent and helpful in solving problems related to the hotel. I thank him for his work and the hotel was a positive experience.

Great location and very nice room. Good breakfast with lots of options available.
