I received a chat invitation once before but do not see one anymore. How can I chat again?
Currently the opportunity to chat is ‘proactive’ meaning that Marriott.com predetermines specific scenarios where a customer will see a chat. If a user does not meet the predetermined requirements, they will not see another invitation. Chat invitations are also based upon customer care associate availability. If representatives are busy assisting other customers, a chat invitation will not be offered. Chat is offered 7 days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. US Eastern Time.

Why do I need to enter my credit card number to reserve a room?
Marriott requires that all room reservations be guaranteed to a valid credit card. Your credit card is not charged at reservation (unless pre-payment is a stated requirement for the rate) and providing this number merely guarantees that Marriott will hold a room for you in advance of your arrival. Your credit card will only be charged in the event that you do not cancel your reservation within the cancellation time period associated with your reservation and you do not check in.

Your credit card information is absolutely safe with Marriott. Marriott.co.uk protects credit card information through the use of industry-leading SSL encryption technology and we never share this information with third parties. Please see our privacy statement for more information.

Marriott.co.uk also allows you to make as many as three, three-room reservations at one time—9 rooms in total.  At present, rooms of differing type must be reserved separately.

Will my credit card be charged if I don't cancel and I don't show up?
Yes, reservations are automatically guaranteed to your credit card. To avoid being charged, reservations must be cancelled in accordance with the cancellation policy outlined by the hotel for the rate and dates booked.

I need to book several rooms (for example, for my family reunion).   How can I reserve a large number of rooms for a group?
Reservations requiring 10 or more rooms for the same arrival and departure pattern are known as a “group booking”.  Group bookings typically have different rate, availability structures, and deposit requirements than non-group reservations.
If you would like to make a group booking, please use our Meeting Planner Hotel Search or contact the sales department of your chosen hotel.  You may also contact our corporate group sales office by phone toll-free at (800)-831-4004.
