On August 21, the ‘Great American Eclipse’ will present a unique opportunity for Marriott International hotels which sit in its path, to create a truly awe-inspiring guest experience. Summer’s most anticipated natural phenomenon is driving travelers for the first solar eclipse in the continental U.S. in 38 years.
From Oregon to South Carolina, hotels will set the stage as Mother Nature sets the show. Celebrations across the country include fun activities such as viewing parties with local artists, live music and themed snacks while taking in nature’s most impressive sight.
