What insurance requirements must a Delta Hotels By Marriott franchisee comply with before opening the Hotel?

According to the 2025 Delta Hotels By Marriott Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must comply with the insurance requirements outlined in the franchise agreement before they can open their hotel. Specifically, the franchisee cannot advertise, promote, or operate the hotel as a Delta Hotels By Marriott System Hotel until they have met these insurance obligations.

This requirement ensures that the Delta Hotels By Marriott brand is protected from potential liabilities and risks associated with operating a hotel. By mandating specific insurance coverage, Delta Hotels By Marriott aims to maintain consistent standards and protect the interests of both the franchisee and the franchisor.

Prospective franchisees should carefully review the insurance requirements detailed elsewhere in the franchise agreement to understand the types and amounts of coverage they must secure. It is important to factor in the costs of these insurance policies when assessing the overall investment required to open and operate a Delta Hotels By Marriott franchise.
