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.
