Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Marco Polo, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor, ideally 4th or 5th floor, as it's likely to be further away from the street noise. The hotel's address in Corfu suggests it's situated in a relatively busy area, and being higher up will help reduce the noise level.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the lower floors, particularly those near the lift, as the noise from the street and potential service entrance activity may be more noticeable.
Best views
Given the hotel's address, rooms on the higher floors may offer views of the surrounding area, although the exact view will depend on the room's orientation.
Quietest floors
The 4th and 5th floors are likely the quietest, given their higher elevation and distance from the street.
🔊 Noise notes
Be aware that Corfu's streets can be lively, especially in the evenings, so rooms on lower floors may be more prone to noise from outside. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the town may mean some background noise from bars or restaurants.
Insider tips
Request a room with a balcony to make the most of the views and fresh air. Also, consider using the hotel's lift, as the stairs may be narrow and steep, especially for guests with mobility issues.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Corfu
💡 If you're visiting on a Sunday morning, you'll see a cricket match—Corfu is the only place in Greece where the sport is played regularly. Buy a cheese pie from a nearby bakery and sit by the Maitland Rotunda.
💡 Go just before 5pm if you want to hear the local women crowd in for the evening litany. Dress modestly—shoulders and knees covered. The reliquary can be kissed after the service if you follow the queue.
💡 Skip the cable car tourist train and walk from the end of the bus line (green bus from San Rocco Square, 1.50 euros). For a swim, take the little boat from the pier below the monastery to Vido Island—free if you swim across from the mainland (200m).
💡 Bring water and wear sturdy shoes—there are many steep steps and no shade. Entry costs 6 euros (2024), but the permanent archaeological exhibition inside is included.
💡 Entry is 4 euros, but free on the first Sunday of each month (November to March). The museum is small—you can do it properly in 45 minutes. Combine it with a walk through the nearby Anemomylos neighborhood for a coffee stop.
