No guarantee, but it is based on availability. You would be granted a late check out before someone with no status or silver status, based on when you ask for your late check out.

So the best time to ask is at check in?
I'll ask at check in. When I've done this in the past as a silver, I usually have been asked to check back the next day.

If they offer you 1 pm and you really want 2 pm, take it. As long as you plan on being back in the room by 1 it's not like they're going to throw you out while you're in the shower. Just put the DND hanger on the door and walk out at 2. Chances are housekeeping will move along to the next room and return to yours once you've left.

You should check with the hotel that morning. I don't imagine that will be heavy business travel day - but it really depends on the next day's occupancy. Worst case scenario, you can check-out at whatever time they check you out at and drop your luggage at front desk and hang out in the lounge til you're ready to leave.

There are multiple options including the CL and a large restaurant on the lobby level (8th floor). There are also a couple of starbucks. As others have said, get to the CL as early as possible. It does get crowded.

You and your guest and entitled to free breakfast in the CL Monday - Friday mornings. They usually have decent offerings, eggs, pastries, oatmeal, cereal, coffee and Orange Juice. Sometimes they have smoked salmon, but on my most recent visit there was none set out. It is possible they ran out, as the lounge gets very crowded for breakfast with every available seat taken.
The restaurant on the 8th floor offers a extensive buffet with a large selection of eggs, meats, smoked salmon, waffles, french toast, pastries, and cooked to order omelets. There also have a regular breakfast menu. Can't remember the price for the buffet, as it was included in our rate. Other Plats have had mixed success getting the buffet comped when the lounge is too crowded or on weekends when the lounge is not open.
Other choices include Starbucks on the 1st floor and Juniors right across the street.

RIP...

Marriott Housing Manager: Reports to the Director of Human Resources. Responsible for staff dormitory operations, including ensuring the dormitory is in safe and clean and dormitory policies are followed by employees.
If it were me, I'd start with the Director of Room Operations.Are they "special" enough to be worth a phone call?
