01

What Marco Polo is known for

Marco Polo Hotels focuses on city-centre, business-friendly properties — many with harbour or river views in major Asian gateway cities. Expect polished rooms, meeting and event spaces, and on-site restaurants aimed at business and leisure travellers. Their inventory leans toward mid-upscale rooms and suites rather than budget or resort-style properties.

How to get the best price

The cheapest rates usually come from advance-purchase, non‑refundable offers and occasional site-only promotions. Creating an account or subscribing to the newsletter unlocks member rates; compare refundable vs prepaid prices carefully — prepaid is cheaper but strict. For groups or extended stays, contacting the hotel directly can yield negotiated packages or bundled breakfast/dining credits.

Payments, cancellation and trust

Bookings send instant email confirmation. Payment terms depend on the rate: many allow pay-at-hotel on refundable rates, while discounted deals require prepayment. Cancellation policies vary by room type — flexible rates commonly permit free cancellation up to 24–48 hours before arrival, while advanced deals are non-refundable. Major credit cards are accepted; always check the specific property policy before checkout.

FAQ

Does Marco Polo Hotels price-match other websites?
There’s no public price-match guarantee on the site. Instead, compare direct member rates, advance purchase deals and third‑party prices — often direct booking with member perks is the best value.
When are the best times to find sales or lower rates?
Look for seasonal promotions, advance-purchase windows and site-only flash offers. Booking midweek or well ahead of your stay usually yields lower rates than last-minute weekends.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellation terms vary by rate. Refundable rates commonly allow free cancellation up to 24–48 hours before arrival; non-refundable advance bookings do not. Always read the rate conditions on the booking page before you pay.
