Marriott International (NASDAQ: MAR) is a global lodging company that operates, franchises, and licenses hotels, residences, timeshares, and other lodging properties across the U.S. & Canada, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, Greater China, Asia Pacific, and other international markets. Its portfolio spans more than 30 brands, ranging from luxury flagships such as The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, JW Marriott, and Bvlgari, through premium full-service names like Marriott Hotels, Sheraton, and Westin, to select-service and lifestyle brands including Courtyard, Fairfield, Aloft, Moxy, and Residence Inn.
