General Requirements
A. Brand Overview
1. Courtyard Brand: The Marriott endorsed, mid-price, global
Brand. Strategically, Courtyard International will generally
follow Marriott Hotels and Resorts into markets around the
world.
• Courtyard is a competitively superior chain of hotels
competing in the upper moderate segment, appealing to
individual business and leisure travelers.
• The Courtyard Brand is focused on providing consistent
quality, functional guestrooms, core hotel services and
amenities appropriate to the upper moderate tier guest
needs of the region.
• In order to maintain high quality competitively superior
guestrooms, program reductions are concentrated in
public areas to reduce costs and drive profitability
without compromising the select needs of the guest.
2. Courtyard Design Principles: Three design principles are
key to success. Achieving the right balance of the three
principles is critical to the success of the design. No one
area of the hotel is 100% access, enrichment or oasis.
Access: Access connects guests with people, information
and outside activities in a fashion that is intuitive and
consistent with Courtyard’s value position. Access enables
guests greater effectiveness, comfort and control.
Enrichment: Combines new experimental, educational or
sensory offering with consistently delivered core product and
service components. Enrichment adds positive benefits to
differentiate a particular stay and leave a more enduring
positive impression.
Oasis: Providing a shielding and retreat like environment,
Oasis facilitates productivity, performance and revitalization.
3. Application: The Design Standards address a prototype
business hotel with approximately 200 guestrooms, an all-
day dining restaurant, multipurpose, divisible meeting space,
an exercise space and indoor or outdoor swimming and spa
pools. Unless approved by Marriott, hotels are no more than
500 guestrooms, and room size will not exceed upscale full-
service hotels in the market. Application of the Design
Standards to a substantially different program requires
Marriott approval.
