Real Embarrassment some of you are. I feel for whoever raised you. |

For all you know, someone with a cold was coughing all over the seat you are sitting on at the moment prior to your entering the lounge. The world is a dirty place. I actually wipe down the airline seat before each flight, and travel with Comet to clean the bathroom before I use it in every hotel. I've learned to control what I can and not try to control others. |

If you can't figure that out on your own then like I said before and many others did.... You aren't worth arguing with. I rarely write letters to Marriott, after reading a few responses I fired off a letter today. I will gladly post any response.
What is wrong with this gentleman's opinion? I fully agree with him! People should take a shower after gym and only be allowed in the restaurant and lounge with clean and proper clothings! |

I'd do what any normal person would do: I'd move to a different seat or take my food to my room. For all I know, the person has a medical issue. Who am I to embarrass that person? But i was raised to think of others.

If you want to see an embarrassment, I suggest looking in the mirror.

You said "looking" professionally too.
You seem to be in the minority in not wanting to allow even non-sweaty gym wear into the CL. In MY opinion, you have to draw the line somewhere. We don't allow people in the lounge who are freshly showered but wearing no clothes or wearing ONLY clean underwear. I think only a tiny minority think there should NOT be at least a minimum dress code. In some lounges and many restaurants in the world, men have to wear a shirt with a collar - tank tops and t-shirts are not allowed (and I'm not opposed to anyone wearing those). Is it too much to ask that robes, pajamas, and workout clothing (whether sweaty or not) not be worn in a Marriott restaurant or the concierge lounge? And, yes, it DOES matter to me and many others that people try to look somewhat presentable (if not professional). This is just my opinion and plenty of people agree with it, just as many others will disagree with it. FT is a great forum for expressing those opinions as long as posters show respect to each other even if they disagree completely with others' opinions. :) |
The real reason Marriott doesn't strictly enforce rules for the Concierge Lounge is simple, they are afraid of offending anyone. Imagine if the person in the bath robe, PJs, or smelly sweats is an A-list celebrity not recognized by the lounge attendant. The wrong words to that person could light up Twitter, Facebook, or other social media in minutes with condemnation about a certain Marriott. The resulting bad press and PR could cost MI millions in an attempt to fix it, save face, and recover from the incident.
