I would like to recommend to everyone a good place to start from Beijing and have fun on weekends! The first stop is the most popular summer resort - Qinhuangdao! It is recommended to drive for more than 3 hours to arrive, without being tired or crowded. As for the hotel, Shangri-La Hotel, Qinhuangdao is especially recommended. The rooms are basically full on weekends, and a very good parent-child suite has been newly launched. I didn’t book it temporarily, but other rooms are also very good. The parent-child concept is very appealing, the room can see the sea view, and there is a special birthday cake (although there was a small episode in the check-in, but it was resolved quickly, and the attitude is not bad). On a lazy weekend, take the whole family to the beach and enjoy a cool summer vacation!
Why choose Qinhuangdao Shangri-La Hotel? The answer is simple, there are so many parent-child activities, you can concentrate on staying in the hotel without arranging scenic spots. A wealth of activities are displayed in the lobby, and there are different activities at every hour, and several suitable time slots are selected to participate. It is very interesting to make a wishing bottle, but it takes a little effort for the baby, and the finished product is very dreamy. The Carrera racing car also has a big track in the lobby, and the remote control is also very handsome for children! There are also indoor golf, go-karts and many other activities. Of course, it is also great to go to the beach to play with sand when you are not participating. It is just a 2-minute walk from the hotel, which is simply too convenient. The hotel's indoor swimming pool is also good, and there are children's rowing boats, so there is no need to worry about not having fun. If you go with your parents, it is recommended to rent a tandem bicycle at the hotel in the morning, and the family rides along the seaside boardwalk together. The scenery and environment along the way are very good, and it is a particularly pleasant trip! After the introduction of the advantages, I must complain about it. The hotel has good intentions, but there are many shortcomings in actual operation. For example, no one notified the temporary change of the activity location; some activities have already started but no staff can be found; So the overall feeling is ok, the shortcomings need to be strengthened.
After talking about living and playing, of course, the most important thing is food. Let me first introduce the hotel's breakfast and dinner in the executive lounge. Compared with the first floor and the executive floor, I prefer the executive floor for breakfast. The service is very good, there is no need to queue up, although the variety is more western style, you can order food, and the basic needs can be met. The canned fruit that I haven’t eaten for a long time is here, and the desserts are also good. The executive dinner is also a simple meal, but the taste is not bad. Fried chicken nuggets must be the favorite of children, and drinks are a must for adults. It is also a kind of enjoyment to accompany some side dishes and look at the beautiful scenery.
In addition to enjoying delicious food in the hotel, there are also unexpected delicacies in the small restaurant within a few minutes. Seafood is indispensable in Qinhuangdao in summer. Spicy crab claws are sweet and spicy. The Seafood Carnival uses the popular shovel to serve. The small yellow croaker has a lot of bones, but the taste is very tasty. Pipi shrimp is not too plump. Fried black-legged chicken is not recommended. It looks good but not very tasty. If you are tired of the hotel's dishes, you can go to the small restaurant to try something new, about 120 per person.
You can find this sea view restaurant in Qinhuangdao's popular rankings. The room is specially decorated for birthdays and longevity noodles are presented as gifts. The main seafood is a specialty, big lobster, abalone, all kinds of seafood are very complete, and the taste is really good. The best fried pork ribs are not recommended, and the official grilled tamokin is slightly sweet. In addition, there are many private rooms and the service is very good. If you like it, don't miss it!
