Nice hotel though I can't believe it's #1 in SZ. I would rate it as a high 4*. Stayed over a weekend so area and hotel were really quiet. Room is nice, w all amenities, but small for China. Saw both king room and two twins. Maybe about 300 sq ft total...really not much larger than the rooms in nice hotels in Hong Kong.

Best thing is that the hotel is relatively new so everything is spotless and in good condition. Gym is nice and new and big. Pool was unremarkable on the 4th floor.

Staff's english comprehension is terrible but they were trying to be helpful and were polite. It was funny, I kept asking about a 'shopping mall' but they didn't know. They only knew when I said 'shopping' it self.

Area wise it's in a business district so dead over the wkend. Metro 2 blks away, also near Huang Guang border w HK. Lowu about 30-40RMB cab ride. CocoPark mall closeby, but not much to buy there.

Overall it's certainly a nice hotel, but I don't think it's the best.

Stayed at this hotel for a conference. The conference is walking distance from the hotel (15 minutes or so). The room was spacious and well equipped although I dislike rooms that have the desk in the same room as the bed. Everything was clean and quiet. Internet worked fine. Turndown service needs work. The hotel staff would put a card on my door at 11pm saying that they couldn’t do turndown service because the ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign was out. Sorry, but 11pm for turn down service is too late. The fitness facility is one of the best I have seen anywhere in the world, short of the Four Seasons on Kona. The Sushi restaurant in the hotel was very good. This is a stellar hotel and warrants every one of the 5 stars it gets.

this has to be one of the finest hotels in china, the service is 5 star the rooms are oppulent and the restaurant food was superb. As a regular traveller who wants a good standard for a fair price this is very hard to beat

Stayed for 3 nights in Marco Polo Shenzhen, which was really very enjoyable. The rooms are very nice, with wonderful bathroom and gorgeous views of the city. The breakfast very good ( we had a club room). The staff in club very helpful. We had some drinks in a lobby bar, and one grill dinner in Marco Polo cafe, which was really good and pretty cheap for the variety of food you get.

I can really recommend the concierge Michael, who was very helpful and obliging all the time. I can definitely recommend this hotel.

Stayed for a week at the Marco Polo, Shenzhen. It is a wonderful propertly very near to Metro station. Must insist on a corner room, which has windows on two sides of the room for a wonderful view of the city.

I booked the hotel as part of a business trip around China seeing factories, and stayed at the hotel for 2 nights. What an incredibly well organized hotel, with highly trained and friendly staff. The rooms were wonderful - incredibly thoughtful designs with all the mod cons, including the rain shower. All the details had been thought of, right down to the Valrhona chocolate next to my bed every night. After a subpar experience at a Chinese hotel in Shanghai this was far, far better.

I would also stop to point out the delicious breakfast, particularly the noodles, congee and some of the baked goods.

Great hotel, would defnitely stay there again.

This was our first trip to China. After arriving at Hong Kong International Airport, we transferred to Shenzhen by shutle van, to encounter chaos at the China border. Traffic was also chaotic in Shenzhen, however, when we arrived at the Marco Polo we were very impressed by the architecture of the building and the eagerness of the staff to please.

The lobby and public areas were beautiful. The room was very well appointed and tastefully decorated with a modern decor. The room also featured a plasma flat screened television with at least a half dozen English channels, free internet access, complimentary bottled water, very good bathroom amenities, bath robes, and the largest and most plush towels I ever encountered in a hotel anywhere.

Our room rate included a buffet breakfast each morning, offering everything you would expect to find at any high end breakfast at a good Western hotel. The eggs were cooked to order with delicious crisp bacon, ham or sausage, yogurt, granola, pancakes, toast, preserves, assorted fruit juices, croissants and pastries,etc. The buffet also featured Dim Sum and other oriental offerings. Oh, and the coffee was very good also!

Ther location was good with easy access to the exhibition centre. There was a large mall two blocks away with a number of restaurants and bars. The modern subway system was also accessed at the mall. Shenzhen is a very large city with an abundance of stunning skyscrapers.

The Marco Polo is an impressive true 5 star hotel. With a rate of just over $100 U.S. per night, this hotel offers incredable value. When I return to Shenzhen I will definately stay at the Marco Polo!
