Marriott hits milestone with City Express

BETHESDA, Maryland – Marriott International’s midscale, conversion-friendly City Express by Marriott brand has reached 100 signings in the U.S. and Canada.

Six properties have opened so far in 2025, and four more are slated to open by the end of the year.

The company also recently announced signed agreements to introduce the brand in Marriott’s Asia Pacific excluding China (APEC) region, with two planned properties in Osaka, Japan.

Guided by the strategy to grow City Express by Marriott in well-connected, convenient markets across the region, the company’s latest signings include the 197-room City Express by Marriott Kissimmee in Florida; the 90-key City Express by Marriott Dulles near Washington, D.C.; the 73-room City Express by Marriott Amarillo in Texas; the 50-room City Express by Marriott Sandusky in Ohio; and the 86-key City Express by Marriott Carson City in Nevada.

Properties typically feature modern guestrooms, complimentary breakfast, high-speed internet, and amenities for both business and leisure travelers.

“City Express by Marriott continues to demonstrate incredible momentum in the U.S. and Canada, with this milestone occurring just over a year after we introduced the midscale brand to the region” said Noah Silverman, global development officer, U.S. and Canada. “Reaching 100 signings for City Express by Marriott reflects the strong appetite for midscale in the market, and we’re thrilled to offer owners a new opportunity to join the Marriott Bonvoy ecosystem while providing guests with more ways to travel with us.”
