Marriott Australia hotels have launched a new promotion to help meeting planners wrap up their last minute winter events.
The new conference and event packages are designed around individual needs, so everything required for a successful event in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane or the Gold Coast is wrapped up in one simple offer.
In Sydney, there's everything from free* meetings when booking groups at Sydney Harbour Marriott and Pier One Sydney Harbour, to free fun breaks that include refreshments and timeout to play giant Jenga and Connect 4, at Courtyard by Marriott North Ryde. In Queensland, there's special room rates starting from $225, free breakfast and cocktail parties, and in Melbourne you can wrap up a great event with a $100 bar tab.
Meeting planners will also be rewarded from start to finish of their event with double Marriott Rewards® points being offered for a limited time. Earning double points provides the opportunity to earn up to 100,000 points or 30,000 airline miles with any qualifying meeting, group or event.
“Marriott understands that the way people work is changing. It's more mobile and more collaborative, so we are constantly searching for inventive ways to serve our customers. This approach doesn't stop on property where our event teams are designing solutions daily to suit each meeting planner's individual needs”, said Deborah McDiarmid, National Marketing Manager for Marriott International in Australia. “We are also available to take enquiries at marriottmeetings.com.au where help is just a click away via online chat and instant call options”, she said.
Marriott is leading the future of meetings and new innovations include the release of a new Meeting Services App called Red Coat Direct and the launch of Workspace on Demand, powered by LiquidSpace® - an online easy-to-book meeting space system.
