LNF guarantee at Ritz?
 

I found an old thread that said the Marriott LNF guarantee wasn't available for Ritz Carlton b/c it couldn't be booked through the marriott.com channel. Is this still true? Because now you can book Ritz thru marriott.com.

You don't book it through Marriot.com.... when you click on the "view rates" it opens a new window. URL of that new window: Ritzcarlton.com

if you'd bother to look at the LNF T&Cs website page
http://www.marriott.com/hotel-prices/travel.mi
you'd find out that the RC's are not (before or now) among those participating in potential LNFs........

One reservation must be made through any Marriott reservation channel (meaning our worldwide reservations centers, a Marriott hotel or an official Marriott web site) for one of the following brands: Marriott® Hotels & Resorts, JW Marriott® Hotels & Resorts, Renaissance® Hotels & Resorts, Courtyard®, AC Hotels by MarriottSM, Fairfield Inn®, SpringHill Suites®, Residence Inn®, TownePlace Suites®, Marriott® Conference Centers, Marriott Vacation Club® International, or Autograph Collection®.

I just tried last month to get a LNF rate for a RC in Washington DC. As mentioned above I was told RC does not participate in the LNF program.
