Seems a bit ridiculous, especially considering how many co-branded cards Marriott has. Have other Marriott properties started adding this fee?
Totally normal for all of Australia and NZ. Stock up on Marriott gift cards before you go (especially if you can buy them at 20% off). The most ridiculous part is some of them don't accept cash either (IC Sydney comes to mind).
