The company expects to open a hotel in China at the rate of one per month during the next three years, according to a release. Commenting on Marriott International's growth plans, Simon Cooper, President and Managing Director, Asia-Pacific, Marriott International said, “China is an incredible market and it is a great endorsement of our operations in the country that we have reached the benchmark of 100 hotels open or under development here. While we have been operating in Hong Kong since 1989, we are a relative newcomer to the mainland, having opened our first Marriott-branded hotel in China in 1998. However, during a relatively short history on the mainland, we have seen solid and consistent growth and are already one of the leading lodging groups in the country. Asia is a key market for us and China is the driver of Asia. We are totally committed to the country and to our operations here.” Marriott International recently opened a dedicated Global Reservation Sales and Customer Care Centre in Guangzhou. This facility is servicing Marriott Worldwide Reservations, Customer Care and Marriott Rewards for the company’s hotels throughout greater China.
