Wyndham Qingdao
Staying at Wyndham Qingdao was an absolute delight from start to finish. The room was spacious and the bed was incredibly comfortable—perfect for a good night’s sleep. Breakfast was well-organized, with a wide variety of fresh and tasty options, and the quality stood out. I also tried the complimentary afternoon tea on the executive floor, which included coffee, juice, fruit, and light pastries. While simple, it was beautifully presented in a clean, serene setting—freebies don’t get better than this. What truly made the stay special was the personal touch: one of the staff members, Ding Yujiu, noticed my child reading in the room and kindly gifted a unique bookmark. Small gestures like that really elevate the experience. On our final day, we used the hotel’s free business shuttle to the airport—punctual, smooth, and stress-free. Even though it was winter and we didn’t get to explore the garden or feed the little sheep, I can only imagine how lovely it would be during spring or fall. Overall, the ambiance, service, and value for money were outstanding. This is definitely a 5-star experience worth every penny.
