Atlanta Marriott Marquis

I called in advance about parking my oversize van. They said it would be no problem. However, the valet parking man told me I was out of luck - and directed me to park down the street. I eventually found a place to park - you can't park on the unattended lots on a Sunday night without moving them by 6 the next morning - then I had to walk through the downtown gauntlet of bums and beggars to get back to the "hotel".Because of this experience, even though I loved going to Dr King's old neighborhood, I will not return to this horrible city.

terrible, just terrible. Horribly managed, conning people for money. I have never felt more stressed. Front staff is untrained, called for appointment and sh never asked me what services I wanted. Called back and she had chosen services for me. Huh???? Never again.

Just finished our stay this weekend with 50,000 screeming Cheerleadersjust have to say very nice place even with all the kids running the hallsStaff is first class, room very nice but needs updated interior wall hangings bath room nice and clean, but small doormen very professional and quickinternet free for 24 hrs in Lobby area $12.95 in room with limits(hook up free in Lobby then go to room to get around this extra cost)Our Rating 4 1/4 out of 5Dont forget loose cash for tips you will not hesatate to tiphope to come back...

It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at referer.us/8/GoodHotelDeals They usually have some pretty good deals on there!

My wife and I stayed at the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta, GA on October 10th, 2008. During our stay our room was broken into and my wallet was stolen. According to Marriott ‘claims’ office I have been dismissed as someone who has misplaced their belongings. The fact that my room was broken into was cast out due too lack of evidence found by their incompetent security and staff.

My wife and I have enjoyed staying at the Marriott Marquis for years. Obviously, due to a breakdown in the security at the Marriott Marquis and the ineffectiveness and unwillingness of their staff to help us resolve this issue, we will not visit a Marriott facility again.

Over the past 15 years my wife and I have enjoyed Atlanta's diversity and the entertainment opportunities. Now that we have kids, we are scheduling more and more events in the city. Instead of banishing the city due to one bad experience with the Marriott Marquis, we will choose to use other facilities and share our discontent among our friends and family.

It is clear that the Marriott Marquis had no intentions in helping resolve our matter because of the initial deferment and the decline of any acceptance of responsibility thereafter.
