My Stay at Marco Polo Hotel in Shenzhen

My husband and I visited Shenzhen during China’s National Day. We booked at Marco Polo Shenzhen for three days and two nights.

Shenzhen is very close to Hong Kong. The Futian Border Crossing is located at the Futian Kou’An Metro Train Station.  Actually, it’s not difficult at all to cross Hongkong. Once in the railway station simply follow the signs to  Hong Kong Train which leads you out of the new section into the border crossing terminal.

Since we’ve been to Hongkong several times, we just decided to stay and explore Shenzhen during this trip.

Just arrived at Marco Polo Hotel, Shenzhen

Marco Polo Hotel Shenzhen has a nice location where you can easily walk outside the hotel safely going to restaurants, convenience store, shopping, and the metro train station is just nearby.

It’s a great place to stay for business and leisure travelers. It provides a wide range of recreation facilities including an outdoor swimming pool on the 4^th floor, a fully equipped gym and relaxing spa treatments.

We booked in a superior room and we were upgraded to a Deluxe room which was nice and clean with spectacular city views.

The bed is large and the mattress and pillows are soft and very comfortable, a great working area table and a  spacious bathroom with basically everything you need.
