Afullcup.com & Marriot 5 - $100 Travel Voucher Giveaway!

At Marriott, we’re always looking for ways to serve our guests better. That’s why the new Marriott.com was developed through a two-way dialogue between Marriott and thousands of our customers. The results? Search front and center. Improved navigation. A more modern and elegant look and feel. And, of course, enhanced functionality overall.

It just goes to show that only good things can happen when a huge organization like ours takes the time to listen to our individual guests to find out how to better serve them. They helped us create something better. It’s also the reason why we’re calling our new campaign, “You asked. We delivered.”

To celebrate the re-design and get the word out, we’re running a promotion that gives Afullcup visitors a chance to win a $100 Marriott TravelCard. Entering is easy, just watch the video below and share your thoughts with Marriott & Afcer's in the comment section (meaning reply to this thread). You can talk about their new site or what you would do with the travel voucher. On Tuesday, November 23rd, Marriott will select five lucky winners at random from your comments.

Sweepstakes ends next Monday, 11:59:59 P.M. ET. No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. Open only to legal residents of 50 US (incl. D.C., excluding Puerto Rico). See Sweepstakes Rules & Regulations for details.

To learn more about the new design and to enter for a chance to win one of three $250 Marriott TravelCards and the Grand Prize of a 7-night vacation (plus $1,500 for travel expenses) visit MarriottDelivers.com.

Cool contest, and what a great improvement to their site. I travel on business several times a year, and prefer Marriott over other hotels. However, in the past, I have called the 800-number for reservations, because I found the site to be hard-to-use and frustrating. This seems like a meaningful improvement! Thanks Marriott!

And thanks AFC & Marriott for the contest!

I really like the new marriot website, making it easier than ever to book a hotel! My husband and I could really use a night away from our 3 kids! If I won the voucher, we would go somewhere close by probably, but just enjoy a night away from our kids. We work different shifts during the week and tag team with our kids, preventing daycare. So we get little quality time together, except every other weekend. This would be a much needed, mini-vacation for the two of us, even if it is just 1 night!

What a very clever video and the new site is fantastic!

[fdigiovine]

Great new sight. We only stay at Marriott Hotels and I want to travel outside of the USA so this is great for me! Gets me excited and my husband can feel safe because he is staying somewhere familiar.

I would love a travel voucher. My family has yet to go on a vacation besides visiting family. I can't wait to use the new Marriott site. It looks great.

[aschlau]

I also often found the old website to be a bit confusing when trying to book through Marriot and if I was in a hurry, I would just call the 1-800 number as well. After visiting the new site and looking around a bit, I can see a huge difference. It is less confusing and more user friendly. We are a military family so we travel alot to visit relatives that we dont normally get to see so having a fast, user friendly, and simple way to book reservations is always a plus. We would love the voucher so that it can help with our upcoming trip to chicago so our daughter can spend some time with her grandparents.

Weird commercial, but I am a loyal Marriott guest, so it didn't really matter. Really, really need a break and would LOVE to win a TravelCard. Usually stay for business - the Marriott Waterside in Tampa has a great outside deck for boat (er, yacht) watching and just recently visited the SeaWorld Renaissance Marriott - totally beautiful lobby with indoor waterfall and sushi bar and little Shamu tub toys.

Love the new video and the Marriott site looks great! My husband and I love staying at Marriott properties and we could definitely use the voucher on our next weekend getaway. We both work full time and this would be a great opportunity to just get away and relax. Thanks for the preview of the new site, the changes look promising!

[hairr6]

I thought the pictures of the various ammenities were beautiful. I thought the conference room was very classy with clean lines. This video definately sells the hotel. If I won the travel voucher, we would use it to stay at a Marriot hotel in LA when we go for my husbands best friends wedding. I have never been to California and would love not to have to worry about the hotel expense. We have 4 children and have not been away on a trip together that wasn't work since the first one was born 12 years ago! I NEED A VACATION!!!

[brandyu]

The video is a clever way to get people interested in the Marriott and have them visit their new site. Kudos to the Marriott for listening to their customers!

[onlycolls]

The commercial started out a bit strange. But the new website looks great. As other posters have mentioned, in teh past I have found teh Marriott website confusing, and have sometimes even gone to other hotels due to the hard time I had with booking from the site. This improvement will really make it much easier.

And winning the travel voucher would be wonderful! As a single mom, it is hard to pull off vacations there days and that would help tremendously!

[knitternut]

Love the video and the new sites is easy to navigate. I have two teenagers who keep us very busy with crazy schedules. My husband and I had our 20th anniversary last year and had planned to go out of town to celebrate. But, our car broke down and we had to us the money for our trip to fix the car. We would love to be able to take some time for ourselves to help reconnect again. Getting through the teenage years is not easy, we really need some down time to feel human again.

Thanks

[jennyjoz24]

Wow their new site looks very cool!!

And I would use this travel voucher to make my stay a little more comfortable over the holidays. Staying at relatives' houses on the couch is no fun.

[gloworm357]

I love Marriott hotels. I only stay at Marriott hotels or their chains. They are nice affordable hotels for the most part. I remember getting a room w/the breakfast buffet in greenbelt, Md for 99.00 per night. Ever since then I have I have been a loyal customer. I need to sign up for their rewards program.

[annemarie73]

What an awesome giveaway! Weird commercial though. The website it easy to navigate and eye catching. I would use the voucher to go visit my daughter when she comes home from Iraq on R&R!

Thanks Marriott and AFC

[jjsbev]

The commercial got my attention.
I'd use the travel voucher for a weekend getaway with hubby- no kids allowed!

[janetlr1974]

Would love to stay at a Marriott Hotel, but I would give this travel voucher to my parents. They've been helping me from day one when my son was born and its been a challenge ever since. My son has ODD and ADHD and it would be a great getaway and break for my parents to just have peace and quiet away from the fast paced homelife we have.

[rachelhale]

I like the new site because it makes it easier to navigate and get information on a particular location. If we won the voucher we would go away together as a family, my husband and I and our 18 month old son. He loves to go swimming, so we would definitely stay at a location with a pool!

[sherilynne]

The Marriott Rocks. I loved the video I do not know how in the world they found some one that looks so much like Mona Lisa.


I am all about the Marriott... GOT to love the A+ Accomadations and the Warm friendly home feeling... It is so often overlooked in many Hotels.

[karenvallone]

Very informative video....I love seeing pics of the actual ammenties! Marriotts have always been good to us!

[nattsgirl]

I've never stayed at a Marriott hotel, but always wanted too. The site was entertaining and I think that was the motive they were going for. I would use the voucher for a trip for my boyfriend and I. With college, work, and trying to juggle other responsibilities with couponing to keep the cost down low, we got a lot of stress on our hands and a trip would be perfect!

Thanks Marriot and AFC for this opportunity!

[mgreen23]

So the commercial is a bit odd, I think she says "Great" too many times, but after that it was fine It would intrigue me to go to the site if I have never been. I did look around at the site and it was very easy to navigate and very modern. I would definately look there for future travels. And as to what I would do with the hotel stays... my husband and I never got a honeymoon after our wedding three years ago. I would seize the opportunity to spend the time with him!!!

[thegunnysack]

Our family loves Marriott! It's my husband's favorite place to stay especially when he travels. We would use the voucher to take out children on a much needed vacation!

[carlajworkman]

We are loyal Marriot visitors! The ammenities are always top notch and the kids always have something to do! The website is much easier to navigate and the changes definitely make Marriot hotels a better choice for customers looking for a place to stay. We would use this travel voucher to celebrate our 5th Wedding Anniversary coming up. We never got to take a honeymoon, so we want to do it this year!
