Marriott has now updated its Covid-19 reservation cancellation policy for new reservations made for stays between July 6 – September 30, 2020 (and it is better than what we were told last week).
Prepaid bookings that are made on or before July 5 can be canceled for any future arrival date. New reservations until September 30 can be changed up to 24 hours before arrival. For arrivals on or after October 1, the cancellation policy attached to the rate plan applies.
Marriott commented on a March call or news release that brand standards that properties are required to adhere, and could be fined if not, have been suspended due to Covid-19 pandemic.
A reader sent us a question back in March March (read more here) about a walk situation at Marriott property and a reply that he had received from customer service. We confirmed with Marriott that these guarantees were first waived through July 5 (read more here), but have now been extended until September 15, 2020.

We’ve covered the current sales of Marriott brands hotel vouchers with 50% bonus value for various hotels in Thailand in the last few weeks and I’m happy to report back with a successful purchase including making a booking at phenomenal value.
I have myself purchased 20,000 Baht worth of vouchers for the Ritz Carlton Koh Samui at a local travel fair (which I covered yesterday when running into trouble with Bangkok Airways) and was able to make a 4 night booking at the hotel with these vouchers.

Marriott Bonvoy has launched an interesting offer for members in Hong Kong and to get them to use hotel restaurants.
Members that first dine (minimum spend 500 HKD) will then receive a 50% off accommodation voucher valid for up to three nights and two weeks after issuance (you must dine by August 16, 2020).
Marriott hotels in Thailand launched in June an offer that allows members to buy gift certificates at up to 50% bonus that has now been extended through July 31 (the sale was supposed to end on June 30).
You can then use these towards folio expenses such as accommodation, SPA, and F&B through date designated by the property that can be the end of 2020 or through July 31, 2021.
There are currently some very good rates for a range of Marriott branded properties in Bangkok as the owners are fighting an effort to fill up their properties again.
These local sales shave up an average of 50% off the basic rate and also include extra benefits such as breakfast and discounted F&B while staying at the property.

IHG acquired Six Senses hotels back in early 2019 (read more here), and they are slowly being integrated into IHG Rewards Club.
Six Senses tend to be resort hotels, but the group had two city properties in Singapore that decided to exit the IHG system in early June. These hotels are switching flags to Marriott’s Autograph Collection.
