Marriott has taken a tentative step towards
following many other major hotel companies in offering guests free
internet, but stopped short of making it a global, company-wide, no
terms policy.
All Marriott Rewards members, no matter what
level of the programme they have achieved, now receive
complimentary in-room high-speed internet access at JW Marriott
Hotels & Resorts, Marriott Hotels & Resorts, Renaissance Hotels
and Courtyard by Marriott hotels in Asia Pacific, including
Australia, China (including Hong Kong), Guam, India, Indonesia,
Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore,
Thailand and Vietnam.
“Asia Pacific is the fastest growing region for
Marriott Rewards, and we feel that complimentary high-speed
internet access will make Marriott International hotels the first
choice for business travellers,” said Simon Cooper, President and
Managing Director, Asia Pacific, Marriott International. “You
can’t put a price on staying connected. So we don’t.”
Marriott Rewards Gold and Platinum elite members
already receive free high-speed internet worldwide.
