Marco Polo Ortigas Manila prepares new safety standards

THE team at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has been focused on ensuring guests’ safety and confidence for when special gatherings are allowed again. In line with government regulations and the World Travel and Tourism Council’s bio-ecurity protocols, the four-time Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star awardee has put in place stringent regulations to make every event and celebration more meaningful in the future.

Visitors are required to fill out either a print or digital health declaration form upon arrival at any of the hotel’s entrances. Body temperature scans and hand sanitation are mandatory as well. A maximum of four guests are allowed for every lift to access any of the available events spaces in line with physical distancing regulations. Sanitation stations are also available in the lavatory areas.

Food is prepared in individual servings, and each dish is served in a covered plate to minimise unnecessary exposure. Physical distancing guidelines are also observed in managing event floor plans. Cleanliness has always been of utmost importance in all aspects of food handling, as associates from the Banquet and Culinary teams are provided the necessary personal protective equipment at all times.

Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has also developed event packages that take into account guest concerns about gathering with friends and loved ones safely. For more information email
