Get the best deals and avoid common mistakes.
Weifang is a business and trade-fair city; rates rise sharply during the Weifang International Kite Festival in April and large exhibitions, so book ahead for those dates
Chinese chain hotels (Atour, Jinjiang Inn, GreenTree, Home Inn) list on Trip.com and their own apps; confirm on the booking page that foreign passports are accepted before paying
Prices are quoted at 1 USD = 6.70 CNY and are indicative only; check the live rate before booking
Qingzhou Ancient City is a separate town about 50 km west of central Weifang; staying there suits a night before or after the ancient-city visit
Hot spring resorts (Hongrun in Binhai, Lancui Lake in Linqu, Hotspring Grand in Shouguang) suit weekends away and are far from the city centre
Show the Chinese address on a phone or printout to taxi drivers; drivers recognise Chinese hotel names more readily than English ones
