What's your favorite Marriott hotel (reasonable for business travel so Ritz and JW are usually out of policy)?

Ritz and JW

like

Renaissance

like

St. Regis (if you wait to book until last minute, price frequently drops to well within reasonable policy limits)

Excluding Ritz and JW, Marriott. Seems like they've remodeled every last one of them in the past 5 years. Most include a pretty decent free breakfast w/status (so factor that in to your weekly spend), or even better, the M Life lounge (like Airport Waterfront in San Francisco/Burlingame).

Where, OP? Anywherr or in general?

*anywhere

Just in general. Sometimes I prefer Residence Inn because the large rooms

Ritz is sometimes reasonable - even though out of policy, can still book and expense if rates for the particular stay are on par with SPG

Book travel will say out of policy, leadership will be notified, etc..as long as the price is right you're fine. Stayed at the Ritz in Atlanta for a project for probably 5 weeks in a row. Just give a heads up to you SM that you may be there and reason why (couldn't get Westin, etc, whatever)

1) Donald Trump has not condemned the group who plotted to kidnap Governor Whitmer and blow up a bridge to both hurt and possibly kill police officers so they couldn’t get to her.

2) He not only encourages the crowd at his rally to chant “lock her up” (which is incredibly insensitive, divisive, and incendiary) but himself yells “lock all of them up”

These are two very small, very clear examples of why rhetoric matters when you’re the leader and chief of the United States of America.
