Apple Pay coming to 11 Marriott Hotels

Marriott Hotels will be accepting payments via Apple Pay in the countries that support it (i.e. not Canada). Just in time for the Apple Watch release on April 24, the hotel chain plans a staggered rollout this summer that will allow check in and payment using your iPhone 6 (or Apple Watch). This will be confirmed with a beep and a vibration signifying that the transaction is good. You will similarly use your iPhone to access your room. Marriott is will offer the service in 11 hotels in the US.

The initial 11 Marriott hotels to support Apple Pay:

• The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park
• The Ritz-Carlton Washington D.C.

• San Francisco Marriott Marquis
• San Francisco Airport Marriott Waterfront
• New York Marriott Downtown
