Anyone any experience or is this such a small "benefit" that no-one cares?
IIRC, the 10% discount is not for sundry items or I vaguely remember that from years ago. Maybe it has to be a Marriott managed shop vs. 3rd party one?
T&C says this:
†† Gift Shop Discount: Available at participating JW Marriott hotels, Autograph Collection, Renaissance Hotels, Marriott Hotels & Resorts and Marriott Vacation Club. For participating Ritz-Carlton and EDITION hotels: 10% discount on logo merchandise only.
Cheers.
