From (generally - always exceptions) highest priced to lowest priced, Marriott's brands might look like this:
Ritz-Carlton
Bulgari (assuming Marriot has actually developed this brand)
JW Marriott (actually, a brand extension of the regular Marriott brand)
Marriott Executive Apartments (internationally)
Marriott Conference Centers
Marriott Vacation Club International
MHRS (Marriott Hotels, Resorts and Suites)
Renaissance
Ramada International (not in U.S.)
Residence Inn (extended stay emphasis)
Courtyard
SpringHill Suites
TownePlace Suites (extended stay emphasis)
Fairfield Inn (and the occasional & Suites)
Socrates, did I miss anything?
