Marriott hotel rates rise first time since 2008

[Erotica]

Well I've not only spoken to employees who seem genuine enough, there are Facebook Pages for Marriott employees who constantly praise Marriott for the great working conditions. Also the fact Marriott has won an award for being one of the best places to work, which is voted by employees, shows that employees of Marriott International must enjoy working there.

Its easy for people to deceive you, you shouldn't take what everyone says at face value. Like I said, people would naturally be bias to someone who is related to their employer. As for Facebook pages, I searched a good few pages and didn't come across any which praised Marriott, just the locations of some of the hotels. I feel the need to point out that getting awards and Facebook pages does not necessitate that it is 'more of a family than a job', which is what you stated.

All Marriott Hotels are 5* or 4*. Also Marriott is not the only brand. The other brands which are owned by the Marriott brand are

Marriott Hotels & Resorts
JW Marriott Hotels & Resorts
Renaissance Hotels & Resorts
EDITION Hotels
Autograph Collection
Courtyard
Residence Inn
Fairfield Inn
Marriott Conference Centers
TownePlace Suites
SpringHill Suites
Marriott Vacation Club International
The Ritz-Carlton
Marriott ExecuStay
Marriott Executive Apartments

Some brands are catered for different styles of Guests. Renaissance/Ritz-Carlton/EDITION/JW Marriott/Autograph are all the high flying luxury hotels, whereas Towneplace is for long stays, and Courtyard is the cheaper brand which is for everyone pretty much.

they're that good that no-one has never heard of any of them *flutters eye lashes*

o well, seems the credit crunch has even hit the 'rich' people *weeps*

Garbage. I wont say there; it's too expensive.

Plus, the name is just awful!

Disgusting, i've never thought much of this hotel chain and this has only dented my opinion of them.

O.o It would be dependent on what brand you stay at as to what service you would have got. Most Marriott Brands will have mugs, also if you stayed in a courtyard by Marriott they've recently had a revamp as a brand and now offer a lot more for a reasonable rate, which also meant that their star rating at some hotels have increased.

Is that a joke? MOST? EVERY place you stay at should have ******* mugs. Bloody hell.

All Marriott Employees I've spoken to are happy within their positions and their jobs at Marriott. As it's more of a family than a job.

I think employees tend to be bias buddy.

Go and watch that ugly tv.

The Marriott Hotel brand is widely recognised in the American market, rather than the UK Market, with 2,500 hotels in the USA alone, it's understandable that some people may not have heard of them. However Marriott is also in 4th position with the amount of hotels worldwide, behind BestWestern, Intercontinental and Wyndham Worldwide. Marriott being the fourth biggest hotel chain by number of Hotels in the world makes it a very prominent hotel chain and if you mention the name to most people they would have either heard Marriott, or one of the Marriott Brands. Y'all can not say that you've never heard of Ritz-Carlton, or as most people would call it, 'The Ritz'

It's recognized in Asia too. However far from the best chain I've stayed at, they ******* rob you for everything. Although, nowadays I tend to swerve away from luxury hotels and stay more in lodges as I backpack more for a greater time.

It was inevitable that they would raise prices, I can't say I'm surprised as other hotels do the same thing.
