What is the highest status at Marriott?

Marriott Bonvoy? offers six levels of membership: Basic, Silver Elite, Gold Elite, Platinum Elite, Titanium Elite and Ambassador Elite. Depending on your Marriott rewards level, you could score late checkouts, room upgrades and lounge access.



The absolute highest tier in the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program is Ambassador Elite. To achieve this prestigious status, a member must stay at least 100 qualifying nights in a calendar year and meet a significant annual spending requirement, which currently stands at $23,000 USD (excluding taxes and fees). This status offers all the benefits of the Titanium Elite tier—such as a 75% point bonus, 4:00 PM late checkout, and United MileagePlus Premier Silver status—but adds two exclusive "crown jewel" perks. The first is Ambassador Service, which assigns a dedicated personal concierge to the member to handle all booking requests and special preferences. The second is Your24, a unique benefit that allows the member to choose their own 24-hour check-in and check-out window (e.g., checking in at 9:00 PM and staying until 9:00 PM the next day). While there is a "Lifetime Platinum" and "Lifetime Titanium" status, Ambassador remains the only tier that must be requalified for every year through high-volume spending and stays.
