Who runs this hotel?

Three different companies can sit behind one hotel. How this works

OperatorThe company responsible for the hotel's day-to-day operations — hiring and training staff, service, food and beverage, housekeeping and revenue management. It can be different from both the owner and the brand.
Poly Hotels Management Co., Ltd. →

Not the brand company — InterContinental supplies the name; Poly Hotels Management Co., Ltd. runs the hotel.

BrandThe name on the door. The brand company sets standards and supplies the reservation system and loyalty programme — but it does not always run the hotel itself.

    Poly Hotels' official property page lists this exact hotel and identifies Poly Hotels as Poly Developments' professional hotel-management platform with international-brand franchise rights; IHG is therefore treated as brand/licensor, not operator.
