I was curious one day and asked ChatGPT to round up the 100 most popular Marriott hotels on the internet. The list it gave me is pretty impressive. As a mom who leans on Marriott a lot for family travel, whether it’s soccer tournaments, Disney trips, or just finding a SpringHill Suites that fits all six of us, I can see why so many of these properties keep coming up in conversations.

I took it one step further though… We love to sign up for Marriott cards specifically for the free night certificates. There’s something about “free” that just makes it so much more worth it, you know? So, if you’re specifically looking for the best ways to use Marriott Free Night Certificates, I’ve already broken that down for you here for 35k, 50k, and 85k night certificates.

From bucket-list luxury resorts to practical family bases, here are the Marriott hotels travelers talk about most online.

Why Moms Love Marriott

• Family-sized rooms & suites: Many Marriott brands include sofa beds, kitchens, or multiple-bedroom options.
• Locations everywhere: Whether it’s Disney, a beach vacation, or a city stopover, there’s usually a Marriott nearby.
• Perks for parents: Elite status (which you can sometimes get automatically with the right cards I recommend for hotel stays) can mean free breakfast or late checkout—both lifesavers with kids.

If you’re curious how Marriott redemptions actually work, I put together a full Guide to Marriott Here that you might love.

Tips for Booking Marriott Stays With Points

• Check both cash & points rates: Marriott pricing can swing wildly. I always compare using my own guide to calculating point value.
• Consider free night certificates: If you have a card that comes with them (here’s my full list of cards with free nights), these can be incredible for family stays.
• Use flexible points when needed: Sometimes it’s better to book Marriott through something like Capital One Travel and just erase the purchase with miles. I explain when this makes sense in my post on when to use points to book directly.

In Summary

Family travel is all about balance: space for kids, convenience for parents, and not blowing the budget. Marriott has so many properties that check all those boxes, and the best part is, you can often book them with points instead of cash.
