    Research Paper: Marriott Hotels, Resorts, and Suites

    Marriott Hotels, Resorts, and Suites are known world wide for their superior hospitality company. They were founded in 1927 by J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott and currently operate around 3,000 lodging properties in the United States as well as 67 in other countries (Malhotra, 2010, p. 517). Marriott is a name that is known by most people and continues to grow and improve its services throughout time. The hospitality industry has a tough job at times because they are responsible for making people feel as if they never left home. Whether this is by providing something as simple as a bed and a shower or by having extremely luxurious rooms with lavish pools, gyms, and excellent service. Either way, Marriott has to provide a room and services that make people want to stay at their location when they are away from home and come back each and every time. This job is difficult, but to their advantage, they are able to use marketing research as a means to get quality information on problems or issues that are of importance.…

    Segmentation and Target Market

    Marriott International, Inc. was founded by J. Willard and Alice Marriott in 1927 and has been a leading hospitality company for over 80 years. It has more than 3,900 properties, 18 brands, and associates with its headquarters in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. The company boasts of revenues of nearly $13 billion in the fiscal year 2013 and is expanding globally. This paper specifically discusses the market segmentation, targeting and positioning strategies of Marriott – Marriott Hotels & Resorts, Courtyard by Marriott in the Asia-Pacific marketplace. Asia-Pacific is expanding exponentially for the hospitality industry and Marriott has bright prospects in this region. China has proved this in the past 30 years by being a prime example of how the economy of the nation has developed due to the hospitality industry. Marriott is aware of the potential market in Asia-Pacific region and how rapidly the hospitality industry is growing there. Marriott International, since 1989, has grown leaps and bounds in expanding its properties and in Hong Kong alone 32 hotels have sprung up throughout the country (Marriott International, Inc. Corporate Headquarters, 2008). Tourists choose hotels not just to stay and eat but also for the location, category of the hotel, and the services that are provided in the hotel. Their needs and wants are unique and target marketing for hotels has become micromarketing. The industry needs to adjust according to the location, culture and diversity of the place and also needs to provide tailored services to its guests – individualized marketing.…

    Internship

    This past summer I decided to do my internship at the Holiday Inn Select in downtown Lafayette. The facility was built 4 years ago and was built right in the center of downtown. In the past year a hospitality group named Hostmark bought out the hotel. However, Hostmark decided not to change the Holiday Inn Select name. Therefore, even though it is under the brand name of the Holiday Inn it is ran according to all of the Hostmark policies. The Holiday Inn Select is a full service hotel which includes many structures. Among these structures are a fine dining restaurant, a martini lounge, a pool, gift shop, banquet facilities, meeting spaces, physical fitness facility, and of a course a laundry room. Hostmark as a company highly values employees and their commitment to the company. The mission statement of the hotel is as follows…”Hostmark hospitality group is a management and development company committed to excellence of service in the hospitality industry, while maximizing profitability through concern for its associates, customers, and investors.” A few of Hostmark’s core values include commitment, open and interactive atmosphere, sense of family/belonging to a team, concern for individual growth and development, and integrity. Therefore, Hostmark highly values their employees well being and they want them to succeed as well as have an all around open ambiance for the employees to be around. Another key character of the management philosophy that Hostmark carries out is that they want all employees to be able to make their own decisions. Since it is a full service hotel the general manager cannot be everywhere at once to make decisions for every department. Therefore, the employees should be trained to handle just about any situation that may arise including problems with guests or other personnel. Next I want to talk about what sort of business clientele the hotel usually markets…
