Fancy a bit of pampering with Marriott STARS benefits? Think room upgrades, complimentary breakfasts, a hotel credit, and more. Just reach out to Ford at ford@fordbtravel.com for the scoop. Even if you’ve already booked, he might work some magic for you. This is valid for paid stays at BVLGARI, EDITION, Ritz-Carlton, Ritz-Carlton Reserve, and St. Regis.
Marriott’s lineup can sometimes be like a pair of stylish twins causing a double take. The culprits? Ritz-Carlton Reserve and our star player, BVLGARI Luxury Hotels & Resorts. If you’ve been wondering what makes BVLGARI tick, gather ’round. Just hold onto your hats, because we’re about to dive deep into all things BVLGARI without any Marriott Bonvoy confetti.
BVLGARI doesn’t participate in Marriott Bonvoy
Before you bust out the confetti, let’s clear the air: BVLGARI hotels aren’t part of the Marriott Bonvoy realm, despite starring on marriott.com’s cast list. Here’s the breakdown:
- No Bonvoy points up for grabs.
- No redeeming Bonvoy points here.
- No special treatment for Bonvoy elites.
In practical terms, BVLGARI is like a distant cousin you can book through Marriott’s platforms. It does play ball with Marriott STARS, which means some perks are on the table through an approved travel agent, like breakfast on the house, a $100 hotel credit, and a chance at that elusive room upgrade.
The Basics of BVLGARI Hotels
BVLGARI. Bvlgari or Bulgari – whichever way you spell it, it’s synonymous with Italian luxury. Initially known for its bling-bling watches, fragrances, and jewelry, the brand’s also flexed its muscles in the hotel game. As of now, there are nine shiny BVLGARI hotels, with another five waiting in the wings.
The brand dove into the hotel business in cahoots with Ritz-Carlton. Their first masterpiece opened its lavish doors in 2004. The roll call was slow, but soon there’ll be a dozen premier properties to boast about.
Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts aims to be the world’s leading luxury hospitality collection, bringing the heart and soul of Bvlgari’s timeless allure to the world’s top cityscapes and resort destinations.

Are BVLGARI Properties Worth Staying At?
Bvlgari takes the hotel scene seriously, stepping into vibrant markets like London and Tokyo, where droves of luxury spots compete for attention. Fashion-forward vibes and stellar service at BVLGARI hotels truly stand out, from chic spas to mouth-watering dining venues, like the standout Il Ristorante Niko Romito.
Having dropped by BVLGARI’s properties in spots like Milan, Rome, and Dubai, I’ve savored the spoils of friendly hospitality, elegant design, and culinary delights. Rome and Paris captured my heart, with awesome tales echoing from Bali and Tokyo.
For premium pampering and a bit of swagger, BVLGARI is the pick. Granted, the price tag might soar high, but that’s the nature of the beast. The clientele is diverse too, appealing to guests hailing from Asia and Africa, adding a unique twist to the usual North America-centric crowd.
Bottom Line
So, where does this leave us with BVLGARI and Marriott’s tangled dance? They’re teammates, albeit without any loyalty or points action right now – but who knows, one day that might change. Meanwhile, the properties shine bright, especially in tropical retreats like Bali and the hustle-bustle of Tokyo.
