Marriott Breakfast: Brands With Free Breakfast for All<\/span><\/h2>\n
The broader Marriott Bonvoy<\/a>\u00ae<\/sup> portfolio comprises nearly 40 distinct brands of hotels and resorts. Some offer complimentary breakfast to everyone who books a night, and some don't. But of all the brands, six offer a universal free breakfast:<\/p>\n
- \n
- City Express by Marriott (including City Express, City Express Junior, City Express Suites, and City Express Plus)<\/li>\n
- Element by Westin (free breakfast unavailable in Asia Pacific hotels)<\/li>\n
- Fairfield Inn & Suites (free breakfast unavailable in Asia Pacific hotels)<\/li>\n
- Residence Inn by Marriott<\/li>\n
- SpringHill Suites by Marriott<\/li>\n
- TownePlace Suites<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Occasionally, you'll find a hotel brand not on this list that offers complimentary breakfast. Those instances come on a property-by-property basis and are general exceptions to the rule. Generally, these properties are located outside of the U.S. and Europe — and there are plenty of exceptions.<\/p>\n
But for the ones on the list, you can expect free breakfast regardless of your Marriott elite status and the type of room you paid for.<\/p>\n

You won't find free breakfast at Courtyard properties, even if you hold Bonvoy elite status<\/a>. However, Platinum, Titanium, and Ambassador Elite members can elect a food and beverage credit to offset the breakfast cost.<\/p>\n
On stays within the U.S., Canada, and Europe, the credit is worth $10. The credit you'll get in all other locations depends on whether the Courtyard location has a lounge.<\/p>\n
Eligible elites can enjoy daily breakfast if the property has a lounge. If the lounge is closed, the property will offer daily breakfast in the hotel's restaurant for you and a companion instead. At Courtyard properties without a lounge, Marriott will grant you a $10 food and beverage credit for yourself and one additional guest.<\/p>\n

The majority of Marriott's brands offer some form of free breakfast via the elite status welcome gift. Thus, if you have Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite<\/a>, Titanium, or Ambassador status, you can select complimentary breakfast or a food and beverage credit at check-in. Unfortunately, Silver and Gold elite members won't enjoy free breakfast or credit as a welcome amenity.<\/p>\n
One of the fastest ways to Marriott Platinum Elite \u2014 the lowest tier that affords access to the breakfast-related welcome amenity \u2014 is by applying for the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant\u00ae<\/sup> American Express\u00ae<\/sup> Card<\/a>. As long as you have this card, you'll retain Marriott Platinum Elite \u2014 no stays or elite night credits required!<\/p>\n
When you consider what breakfast costs at Marriott properties, it's easy to see how the $650-annual-fee card (Rates & Fees<\/a>) might pay for itself after enough travel, and that doesn't include all the other benefits it offers.<\/p>\n
