About the Company

Marriott International

Manages and franchises hotels around the world

Marriott International manages and franchises hotels and resorts for leisure and business travelers, with brands spanning luxury stays, select-service hotels and extended visits. Its portfolio includes The Ritz-Carlton, Sheraton and Courtyard, giving hotel owners different formats for serving guests. Most properties belong to third-party owners: Marriott earns management fees tied to hotel revenue and profit, or franchise royalties for use of its brands and systems, while owning or leasing a small share itself. The company also licenses its names for branded residences and vacation ownership properties. With operating roots dating to 1927, Marriott is headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland.
