4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Qingdao

  1. Book for the cheapest times: For those looking to travel on a budget, the most affordable time to visit Qingdao is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices are generally lower. To fully appreciate the city’s key landmarks and cultural offerings, it is advisable to stay for at least 3 to 4 days. During this time, visitors can enjoy a range of activities such as sailing, whalewatching, and exploring the hilly landscapes. Additionally, they can visit the local aquarium, embark on a ferry ride, sample the famous beer, or even engage in a spot of bowling. This duration allows for a great value for money experience, ensuring you don’t miss out on Qingdao’s rich history and vibrant culture.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals for accommodation in Qingdao, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. By enabling email alerts or push notifications, you could stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions, helping you save on your stay. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities efficiently. With these features, you're more likely to see the best options available and be among the first to know if prices drop or rooms become available.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Qingdao hotel. For those seeking something distinctive, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we'll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is relatively high, we’ll suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, enhancing your chances of securing a better deal.
