My partner and I had a delay in our flight on the way to Cebu so we had less time than anticipated, we decided to stay in the hotel for our entire 20 hours we had in the city. This decision was made after we had dinner on the night of our arrival - because we had such a great experience.
We ate out by the pool, from the À la carte menu we chose some dishes from the sizzling/bbq menu and were so happy with our choices. The food was hot, fresh and well priced not to mention delicious, and our accompanying cocktails were also great. There was live music and the lovely atmosphere by the pool.
We had breakfast in the lobby lounge - I had an amazing serving of macadamia encrusted french toast with caramelised banana which was a treat.
Then for lunch we ordered À la carte again and were very pleased with the food. I normally don't eat in hotels if given a choice, but this was a great gastronomic experience.
Overall the hotel room was nice too, with good views and very friendly staff.
Room Tip: Seem to have good view from all angles.

Dear ddv73,
Thank you for deciding to stay with us on that 20-hour layover in Cebu.
We take pride in serving great food here at Marco Polo Plaza Cebu and for that, we are grateful that you have appreciated and enjoyed very much that culinary treat. Beginning from that Sizzling Dinner at El Viento to the breakfast the next morning at the Lobby Lounge, and specially mentioning our nightly live music entertainment that naturally speaks of Cebu’s love of music.
It is our passion to offer to you our guests, the Marco Polo Way of hospitality in all aspects.
Cheers!
Sincerely,
Hans Hauri
General Manager
