Marriott to be booked via Expedia and Hotels.com
Marriott International Inc. announced an agreement to make reservations available through Expedia.com and Hotels.com. That means the world’s largest hotel company, with more than 2,000 properties in North America, will offer a direct link to both sites, which are owned by InterActiveCorp. Marriott said a direct link between the two sites and the hotel company was being developed. Participating brands include Marriott Hotels & Resorts, JW Marriott Hotels & Resorts, Renaissance Hotels & Resorts, Residence Inn by Marriott, Courtyard by Marriott, TownePlace Suites by Marriott, Fairfield Inn by Marriott and Springhill Suites by Marriott. Marriott said it has also agreed to develop a direct connection with Expedia and Hotels.com that will make it easier and more cost effective for the hotel chain to manage inventory and rates through Expedia’s and Hotels.com’s booking channels from the Marriott central reservation systems.
