Marriott International expects to open 14 additional luxury properties in Asia Pacific by the end of 2023.
The planned additions highlight the strategic growth of the group’s high end hotel portfolio in the region, where it currently operates 156 luxury sites.
Popular and emerging locations
Across 13 countries and regions in Asia Pacific, Marriott’s luxury portfolio covers popular cities including Tokyo and Melbourne, and the group is ready to bring these experiences to emerging destinations such as Jeju and Jiuzhaigou.
The company’s luxury brands include The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, W Hotels, The Luxury Collection, Edition, JW Marriott and Bulgari.
