What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Delta Hotels By Marriott Franchise Disclosure Document, the agreement includes a section to specify whether rooms will be comped at a location with a casino or gaming facility.
The FDD provides a table to gather information about various facilities within the development site of the Delta Hotels By Marriott location. This includes details about third-party restaurants, bars/lounges, retail spaces, and conference facilities. Specifically, for locations that include a casino or other gaming facility, the table includes a question with a drop down menu to indicate whether rooms will be comped.
This suggests that Delta Hotels By Marriott allows for the possibility of comped rooms in conjunction with a casino or gaming facility, but the decision is not predetermined. The franchisee must specify their intention regarding comped rooms during the application process, and it appears Delta Hotels By Marriott retains the right to approve or disapprove this aspect of the operation.
