InterContinental Qingdao by IHG

The marina sits directly outside the glass, and most rooms at this waterfront hotel look out over either the coastline or a harbor full of yachts. Eight restaurants cover a lot of ground, from a botanical atrium of water, stone, and timber to an open seafood grill facing the Olympic Marina on the upper floors. The beach and Sea View Park are a short walk away, which makes leaving the hotel feel almost reasonable.
