Look, I appreciate that currently there are many HK families booking here at the weekend for staycations and entrance to Ocean Park itself isn't a given but to designate this a resort is a bit much. Maximum, this gets around a problem of people checking in Friday and leaving Saturday at 4pm. Better, IMO, to mandate that you must stay two nights if you check in Friday and want late checkout rather than inflict a fictitious resort designation on everyone staying every night.

You heard right. Hotel is now officially a 'resort' and elite check-out times are not guaranteed but was given to me this time since occupancy was very low.
Especially when the park itself is closed!
Was this a unilateral decision? So disappointing to hear that this is now a “resort”. Can Marriott do anything about this?
