Great news for our clients who book hotels with us! Our agency is now part of the Marriott Stars & Luminous program!

Stars & Luminous is Marriott's proprietary travel agency program designed to present the highest level of service, experience, and amenities to drive loyalty for Marriott’s most engaged travel agencies and their valued customers — like you!

The West Hollywood EDITION

STARS hotels are a distinguished collection of hotels dedicated to offering the highest level of luxury and service. Brands include The Ritz-Carlton, St Regis, The Luxury Collection, Bulgari, Ritz-Carlton Reserve and EDITION.

LUMINOUS hotels are a curated collection of lifestyle and boutique hotels that are committed to expanding their relationship with our travel agency community. Top brands include W Hotels, JW Marriott, Autograph Collection, and more.

Because we’re part of this prestigous program, we’ve added nearly 800 hotels to our roster, where our clients get VIP amenities. And like our other hotel programs, these exclusive amenities are available when we book the best available rate for you — you don’t pay anything more than if you’d booked on your own. In fact, we may have exclusive promotions available to you, that you wouldn’t find booking direct.

So, what are these amenities, exactly?

At STARS properties, our clients receive

  • Personalized welcome amenity

  • Complimentary full or continental breakfast daily for up to 2 people per room

  • Complimentary basic Wi-Fi daily

  • Hotel credit valued at $100 USD once per stay

  • Early Check-In/Late Check-Out (Based upon availability)

  • Complimentary room upgrade (Based on availability at check-in)

  • An In-person warm welcome

  • Personalized welcome note from Hotel Management acknowledging you as a client of a STARS agency

At LUMINOUS properties, the amenities are slightly different.

  • Indigenous Welcome Amenity representing local area or theme of hotel

  • Complimentary full or continental breakfast daily for up to2 people per room

  • Complimentary Basic Wi-Fi daily

  • Early Check-In/Late Check-Out (Based upon availability)

  • Complimentary room upgrade (Based on availability at check-in)

Some Luminous properties have an additional $100 hotel spending credit — we’ll check on that when we make your booking, to see if it’s available at that hotel or resort.
