Qingting · Lyric Courtyard Hotel (Zhongshan Road Metro Station, Zhanqiao, Qingdao)
**The Lyric Courtyard Hotel, Qingdao**
A luxury boutique hotel reimagined within Qingdao’s century-old *Liyuan* courtyard residences—a distinctive architectural hybrid blending Eastern and Western traditions—our property resides in the Zhongshan Road-Dabaodao Historic Cultural District, directly adjacent to Exit A of Zhongshan Road Metro Station. This prime location ensures effortless access to the airport, transport hubs, shopping centres, and major attractions.
**Step Into History, Explore With Ease**
Within moments of your doorstep stand **St. Michael’s Cathedral** and **Anna Villa**, while a short 10–15 minute walk unveils **Zhanqiao Pier**, **Qingdao Railway Station**, **Yinyu Lane**, **Pichaiyuan Market**, **University Road**, **Longjiang Road**, **Signal Hill**, the **German Colonial Architecture Cluster**, the **Former German Governor’s Mansion**, and **Qingdao Underwater World**.
**The Soul of Qingdao’s Heritage**
The *Liyuan*—a unique urban residential form born from over a century of cultural fusion—mirrors Qingdao’s evolution as a crossroads of civilisations. Our 1920s brick-and-timber courtyard complex epitomises this tradition, its enclosed layout historically nurturing neighbourly bonds and fostering the city’s vibrant *Liyuan* culture. These courtyards once thrived as stages for opera societies, folk artists, and the legendary "courtyard-hopping" (*Chuanli*) performances, including a 1932 appearance by renowned xiangsheng (comic dialogue) master Ma Sanli.
**Where Heritage Breathes Modernity**
Faithfully preserving the original architecture’s layout, structure, and aesthetic, we’ve revitalised the space through a "renewal through heritage" philosophy. Historical authenticity intertwines with contemporary comfort, immersing guests in a living tapestry of Qingdao’s past while delivering modern luxury.
**Thoughtfully Crafted Spaces**
• **Dining & Leisure**: All-day dining restaurant, artisan cocktail bar, specialty coffee lounge
• **Business Essentials**: Executive lounge, meeting rooms, self-service laundry
• **In-Room Sophistication**: Kitchenettes, minibars, and curated interiors echoing nostalgic elegance
**A Living Cultural Canvas**
Here, every archway whispers tales of Qingdao’s artistic legacy, while every modern convenience ensures seamless urban living. Discover a sanctuary where time-honoured charm and present-day refinement coexist—a true embodiment of the city’s soul.

'호텔 위치가 정말 최고입니다. 바로 옆에 지하철역 입구가 있어서 몇십 미터만 걸어가면 바로 도착해요. 호텔 대각선 맞은편에는 보행자 거리가 있어 구경하거나 쇼핑하기 편리합니다. 1층에서는 맥주와 간식도 살 수 있어서 좋았어요.
무엇보다 호텔 직원분들이 정말 친절합니다. 외출 전 맡겨둔 짐도 체크인 후에 직원분들께서 방으로 전부 가져다주셨어요. 세탁 서비스도 훌륭합니다. 세탁물을 프런트에 맡기면 건조까지 완료해서 보관해주셔서, 기다릴 필요 없이 시간을 절약할 수 있었습니다.
호텔 내부는 심플하면서도 깨끗하고 정돈되어 있었고, 비치용품도 아주 잘 갖춰져 있었습니다. 머무는 내내 매우 편안했습니다. 정말 좋은 호텔이라 여러분께 강력 추천합니다!'
