Properties, rooms and room types
A property in Marriott is a room in Beds24. The name sent is:
- For properties with one unit: property name from (SETTINGS) PROPERTIES > DESCRIPTION and pictures from the property will send.
- For properties with more than one unit type: the names from (SETTINGS) PROPERTIES > ROOMS > DESCRIPTION and the room pictures will send.
---> This is more like Google for Vacation Rentals
If you sell rooms/renatls individually at another channel or your own web site and want to sell them here as a "roomtype" with a quantity of more than one you can set up virtual rooms.

If you see a red button "Fix Content Errors" your listing does not meet Marriotts requirements. Click on the button to get to (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > MARRIOTT> VIEW CONTENT.
Step - Check which prices will send Click on the "Actual Data" link to check which prices and availability will send. If you see no prices or no availability in the list check your have prices which are activated for Marriott.
Step - Add a multiplier to your prices (optional)
If you want to add a multiplier to your prices add a * followed by the multiplier number.
The multiplier applies to all prices and fees which are sent.
For example a hotel id setting *1.23' will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent (i.e. raised by 23%). Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. *0.85 will send a price 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%)
To convert the price of bookings imported add a * after the multiplier, for example *1.23* will divide the price of the booking by 1.23.
You can also use currency conversion template variable. All currencies supported by the booking page currency selector can be used.
For example *[CONVERT:IDR-EUR] will convert Indonesian Rupees to Euros.
