Marco Polo Plaza offers a wide range of cuisine choices. Café Marco's contemporary interior design and palatable dishes, prepared at its show kitchens, ensure an exquisite dining experience. Relaxing music and casual elegance engage guests at the Lobby Lounge; enticing entrees, tropical refreshments, a landscaped garden, and a mango-shaped swimming pool accompanied by the soothing sound of the waterfall, harmonize at the Pool Bar.

The Hotel is conveniently 25 minutes away from the Mactan Cebu International Airport and only ten minutes from the business and commercial centers of Cebu City.
