What's this?

Have a hotel billing question for those who do a lot of travel


I stayed at a Marriott this weekend, that I had booked through an online retailer. They handled the transaction with Marriott. I gave the front desk a credit card for "incidentals" when I checked in. I just logged on to my bank's account, and noticed I have a pending $20 charge. I called the hotel, and they said that's "common practice" and it should drop off later this week.

I think that's the only time I've ever seen this practice. Is this a common practice for Marriott, or for any other hotels?

  Yep, seen many times - check in a few days or so and it should disappear ** -- FfxStationHokie 08/07/2018 1:13PM
  $20 seems a bit much but you will usually see a pending charge -- Vienna_Hokie 08/07/2018 1:11PM
