Not much to expect here, honestly — this is a very old hotel, and it shows. I stayed at Marco Polo Hotel mainly for its location, which is probably the best thing about it. It’s right in the middle of Tawau town, so you can easily walk to restaurants, shops, and the market. The rooms are quite spacious, but they seriously need an upgrade. Furniture is old, the carpets look tired, and some of the fixtures in the bathroom don’t work properly. You can tell not much has changed in the last couple of decades. Cleanliness is hit or miss — some areas feel okay, others not so much. I noticed some dust and mold in corners, and a few reviews I saw mentioned cockroaches (thankfully I didn’t see any during my stay, but still… not very comforting). Staff were friendly and helpful though — probably the only saving grace. They were polite and tried their best to accommodate requests. Wi-Fi was weak, TV didn’t have many channels, and overall amenities are outdated. If you’re just looking for a place to sleep and don’t mind the old-school vibe, it might be fine. But if you’re expecting comfort or modern standards, this isn’t it. Would I stay again? Only if I had no other option nearby.

The room was spacious, which I truly appreciated. However, the cleanliness could have been improved, as it did not quite meet expectations. Some of the amenities appeared outdated, and a few were not functioning properly. I believe the overall experience would be greatly enhanced with some refurbishment and better maintenance. Nevertheless, I am thankful for the hospitality provided.

I had a comfortable stay at this lovely hotel in Tawau and made a return trip recently. Hotel is new and all amenities are available and in tip top condition. There is no breakfast hall and so the room rate does not include it. However within walking distance there are plenty of restaurants and food outlets. Hotel is helpful to assist taxi booking to the airport as well

Overall experience for a 1 nigth stay, I give it a 6/10. Staff are friendly, location is strategic (In the middle of the city), breakfast is okay. Its just that the hotel is old, run down. Here’s a few reasons; 1. When we enter the room, we were greeted by the strong smell of Mold. They put some freshener on the aircond but still, the mold smell is strong. Even the chair is moldy 🥲 2. The aircond; Its moldy. It automatically turns off every few hours (tried to turn off the timer but some buttons on the aircond remote doesn’t work). Set the temp to 16c but it feels like 24c) 3. The front light near the door is not working. 4. The remote TV is also not working, cant even change the channel or adjust the volume. 5. The toilet hose is broken. 6. The toilet floor is very slippery, IDK if its because of the soap or oil.

GGuest UserWhen I came in, the room was amazing. The room was large and the whole was designed in Nanyang style. Every place was carefully selected. The color matching was also very beautiful. It was mainly clean and tidy. It looked very comfortable. The bedding was also very comfortable and soft. Exceeded expectations, there is a convenience store downstairs, But it was not easy to find a location by taxi. It was raining in the past at night. Fortunately, the boss and the driver found it after communicating directly.

LLexiangshenghuoXiaomeijia surprised me. I stayed in Tawau for one night before going to Semporna. There were three families, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The price was 400 RMB. They also gave me a bunch of thoughtful snacks and new products. The kitchen was very clean. , the bathroom is also very clean, not to mention the bedroom. There is a durian stall 150 meters away. I bought 3 durians ➕ 20 mangosteens ➕ two dragon fruits for 200 ringgit. . . Eat until you are satisfied. I will come back next year, specifically to stay at Xiaomei's house for a few more days.

GGuan Jiannstayed here for the first time. when lady boss heard i'm a frequent traveler to tawau (at least 2 x 2 days trips per month) she gave me a free upgrade to deluxe room. Room was big and spacious and tv comes with netlfix. the only little imperfection for me was the lacking of water kettle in room. It would be better to either have individual kettle in each room or hot & cold water dispenser at each level. best would be also equiping the rooms with mini bar. over all its a good stay.
