Pullach/Frankfurt, February 19, 2024 – The premium mobility provider SIXT and Marriott International have renewed and extended their alliance for another five years, following almost a quarter of a century of collaboration. With this long-standing partnership, the two companies are offering customers and members of Marriott Bonvoy, the loyalty program of Marriott International, attractive benefits and access to premium vehicles – now also at the new SIXT branch at Konstablerwache/Zeil (Frankfurt, Germany), located within The Westin Grand hotel, which is a part of Marriott International. For SIXT, this is an additional step towards intensifying the brand’s visibility by providing a premium mobility offering tailored to the members of the loyalty program.

With over 170 parking spaces in the modernized underground car park, this branch is one of SIXT’s largest downtown branches in Europe. In addition to its capacity, customers of SIXT and Marriott International also benefit from a wide range of premium and luxury vehicles from manufacturers such as Audi, Bentley, BMW, Lamborghini, Maserati, Maybach and Mercedes-Benz. The new Frankfurt branch showcases what SIXT offers in over 2,000 branches in more than 100 countries (including franchise partners) around the world – a premium experience when it comes to car rental.

Regine Sixt, Senior Executive President International Marketing at SIXT: “In the world of travel, SIXT and Marriott aren’t just globally recognized brands, they represent a fusion of premium experiences and service excellence that perfectly complement each other. This synergy is the essence of our partnership’s motto – a never-ending journey. What unites us goes beyond the pursuit of the highest standards in exceeding customer expectations. It’s rooted in the tradition of two entrepreneurial families committed to these enduring values.”

Satya Anand, President, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Marriott International: “It is rare for business partnerships to last as long as this one has between Marriott International and SIXT. Our long-standing partnership is testament to both our organisations’ shared heritage as family businesses and a desire to want to do more for our customers and to provide them with the best experience possible. Both companies understand and recognise the value of customer loyalty. We look forward to continuing to share the benefits of this relationship with our customers and loyal Marriott Bonvoy members across the world.”

Vinzenz Pflanz, Chief Business Officer at SIXT: “The partnership between SIXT and Marriott demonstrates the remarkable success achievable through trusted collaboration. Marriott’s customers gain seamless access to our premium rental vehicles, enhancing their travel experience, while our customers enjoy the convenience of picking up and returning cars at Marriott’s excellently located hotels. This synergy not only elevates our premium service offerings but also enriches the customer experience, as exemplified by our new branch in Frankfurt at The Westin Grand.”

The partnership with SIXT offers Marriott Bonvoy members the opportunity to collect points in their loyalty account, creating opportunities for future travel. Members will receive an additional 750 Marriott Bonvoy points for each car rental booked with SIXT (available globally with the exception of the US and Canada). Additionally, loyalty members can directly apply for SIXT Express status, which allows for faster vehicle pickups. Elite Marriott Bonvoy members are also eligible for further individual status matches.
