For 30 years the Marco Polo Hotel Group (MPHG) proved a formidable name in Asia as it successfully blends the region’s innate hospitality with Western innovation in serving its wide ranging hotel clientele from different parts of the world.

This summer, the country’s avid holiday-makers and business travelers will be in for a one-of-a-kind travel experience bearing the distinct Marco Polo touch as owner Asia Pacific Top Management International Resources Corporation (APTMIRC) readies to open the luxurious doors of Marco Polo Plaza Cebu, the first world-class urban resort hotel in the Queen City.

Nestling in Nivel Hills, overlooking the breathtaking Cebu City skyline, Marco Polo Plaza Cebu is deemed to become a key stopover with its first-rate amenities and impeccable service.

In an interview with general manager Hans Hauri, he expressed confidence Marco Polo Plaza will enjoy good patronage not only because of its unique offerings but also for its nostalgic charm.

"Well, the hotel seemed to exude a certain nostalgic appeal particularly to patrons of the former Cebu Plaza Hotel. Now as Marco Polo Plaza, we expect these guests to come and share the new experience with us," shares Hauri.

Distinct Marco Polo touch

Vibrant, contemporary, elegant yet comfortable are just some of the fine features of the newly-refurbished Marco Polo Plaza Cebu.

Boasting of 329 well-appointed guest rooms and suites, a show kitchen, handmade brick-oven wood fired at the Pool bar, specialty coffees and Tapas at the Coffeeshop and a stunning Swarovski-accented chandelier at its opulent lobby, Hauri believes Marco Polo Plaza’s edge is something more than meets the eye.

"We want our guests to remember the friendliness and effectiveness while staying in our hotel. We want them to know customer service here is without delays, that we are taking action on their every need or concern. At the same time, we offer a careful balance between meeting the needs of our high and low end markets."

Marco Polo Plaza Cebu lies on the sprawling 7.5 hectares of lush greenery complemented by facilities like a tennis court, a mango-shaped pool as well as a jogging trail. It serves as a choice meetings and events venue with 2,445 square meters of flexible meeting space including 12 function rooms and a Grand Ballroom that can accommodate up to 500 sitdown banquet guests.

Extending warmth of welcome accorded to its famous namesake, explorer Marco Polo, on his travel to the East, guests can expect a wonderful stay at Marco Polo Plaza Cebu.
