Oceanwide Elite Hotel (Qingdao Fanhai Mingren Jiudian) is among a cluster of colonial-era buildings, walking distance from both the train station and the harbor. Facing the Zhanqiao Pier and Small Qingdao Island, both symbolic spots of Qingdao, this Qinghao hotel's location really can't be beat.
The staff is friendly and the rooms are large. You can't ask for much more of a Chinese hotel in a town of this size.
