Marriott Hotels Named Favorite For the Second Year in a Row
Marriott Hotels & Resorts has come out on top for the second year in a row on TripAdvisor’s® annual survey of business travelers. More than 1,500 responded to the survey, which also named Courtyard by Marriott one of the top five hotel chains for business travel.
The survey indicated that the most important feature in hotels to the business traveler are the location/proximity to meetings (30 percent), high-speed internet access (26 percent) and onsite dining and room service (19 percent). Deluxe bedding and high-end bath products were the most important luxuries.
Frequent guest programs, such as Marriott Rewards, remain a top motivator for travelers when choosing hotels, with 78 percent as members of one program or more. More than half of those surveyed said they were “often” loyal to the hotels with which they had points and 10 percent responded that they were “always” loyal.
The TripAdvisor survey also asked business travelers about their likes and dislikes when traveling for work, as well as their preferred cities for business travel.
