These hotels, scheduled to open through the end of 2013, will add approximately 7,000 rooms to the company’s portfolio. The projects are lined up in China, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines and Cambodia. As a result of the expansion, Marriott’s Asia-Pacific portfolio will have 154 hotels offering 51,500 rooms in 18 countries by the end of 2013.
