Overview
- Marriott’s booking search now includes an “Elite Member Lounge” filter that limits results to hotels listing a club or M Club.
- Platinum Elite, Titanium Elite and Ambassador Elite members typically receive complimentary lounge entry for themselves and one guest when a lounge is available.
- The filter helps screen out properties where elites generally lack access, such as many Ritz-Carlton locations, though travelers should still confirm access on each hotel’s page.
- Eligibility varies by brand and region, including access at JW Marriott, Marriott, Sheraton, Westin, Le Meridien, Delta, Autograph Collection and Renaissance, with resort and Courtyard exceptions noted by Marriott policy.
- The change streamlines a process that previously required checking hotels one by one, offering practical time savings for families and business travelers who rely on lounge amenities.
