For what it's worth, the NYC Marriott Marquis CL was open on the Sun eve/Mon morning of July 3/4. I was worried that since July 4 is a legal holiday, it would fall in the gray area of "normal hours operation," and be closed without breakfast coupons being available for the restaurant.

The crowds were more family-oriented than business (as you would expect). As has been noted elsewhere, bottled water is now gone - only cans of soda (and small bottles of sparking water) are available in the fridge. When closed over the weekend the lounge is NOT accessible via key-card for those items.

Short update on this: Gold and Platinum members get a coupon for a free appetizer plus drink for each day of their stay to be choosen from a special menu - something like a salad with grilled chicken, Tomato soup with side salad, Coconut shrimp or Chicken wings.

In addition on my most recent stays here I have received an upgrade to a room with free usage of the mini bar, however this is an on/off thing - my colleague just got told that the mini bar in his suite is not included, while I have had serveral items out of my mini-bar without any charge appearing on my account at the very same time. So the free mini bar is a YMMV thing...maybe this is something they extend to frequent guests only (stay here weekly for two to three nights).

Hi Sharon,

Here's the scoop on the Milan Marriott, validated today.

- Lounge open on weekend for soft drinks, coffee, tea. No attendant (It's not much of a lounge at all)

- Coupon provided for full buffet breakfast

- Passcode provided for Internet access. Note: if you have multiple devices to connect, you will need to request multiple passcodes, which are provided without hassle.

Cheers,

GenevaFlyer

List updated.

Also I added ** All Marriott rewards members receive free in-room internet at JW, Marriott hotels/resorts, Renaissance & Courtyards in XX **, with XX being the Asia Pacific countries that Marriott listed in its May '11 implementation of the policy.

Please note that the free i-net or wifi in the lounge remains part of the lounge information requested because not everyone travels w/ laptop for in-room access, especially when on holiday.

I also updated a few countries properties that either weren't listed or hadn't been updated in a while (Guam, Ireland, Honduras, Turkey, Ecuador). I went off the hotels' websites, so would still appreciate any input FTers have after staying at them.

Cheers.
