Marriott International's Arne Sorenson told LinkedIn that resort fees are likely not going away despite the hotel chain being sued last week by the District of Columbia for slugging customers with the mandatory charges. The company scooped up hundreds of millions of dollars "by deceiving consumers about the true price of its hotel rooms,” Attorney General Karl Racine said. Some 189 Marriott properties globally charge between $9 and $95 daily in fees, which typically only become clear near the end of the booking process.
