Holiday Inn Express Qingdao City Center by IHG

Breakfast was good - a mix of local and international spread. Not quite the full international spread, but nothing to complain either. Location is good - 3min to a metro station, about a 15min leisurely walk to the May 4th square, right across a street with seafood restaurants and shopping malls. Beds are comfy and staff are friendly. Saw a wide range of nationalities staying at the hotel too with happy faces and conversing with reception, so that itself is good sign I guess!

The rooms are cleaned. I liked that there is complimentary self-service laundry facilities available. The location is close to main attractions are is only 3-4 mins away. Free coffee and tea bar at the concierge area. The hotel will send meals directly to your rooms using a small and cute robot. It’s a plus point for tourists who have a long day and wanted to rest in the hotel room.

The breakfast here has a nice variety, and everything tastes just fine. Could be a little warmer, but of course, there are some foods that you do not want to overcook. But I am happy that they serve a lot of eggs in different ways - boiled, sunny side up, fried - so I do not eat the same egg consecutively. For the rooms themselves, they are exactly what I expect for a Holiday Inn Express. Clean, with a very good staff who speak decent English and when I had a specific need, brainstormed and worked out a solution, which is better than what other places I've stayed in have done. Again, this location is a one or two minute walk from the Fushansuo Rail Entrance, which provides access to Qingdao's very efficient rail station. But if you enjoy a nice walk, it is ideally located near many tourist attractions.

The location is incredible! Only 3 minutes from the subway station and in walking distance to May 4th Square. The hotel was clean and the breakfast was also delicious. The staff were very helpful. We will definitely stay here again!

very good quality of breakfast. The staff were kind although they were not good in English. a comfortable beds in clean room. coffee and tea were available at lobby for 24hours.
