Through their exclusive partnership with Manchester United, Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott International’s award-winning travel program, and Marriott Hotels announce the beloved Suite of Dreams will be reimagined for its fifth year as “The Captain’s Suite” and pay tribute to one of the club’s most decorated legends, Gary Neville.

Starting today, Manchester United fans can enter to win a one-night-stay in this iconic Marriott Hotels’ suite before cheering on Manchester United against Manchester City this April. The winner and a guest will sit down with Gary himself to hear stories from his years with the Club and what inspired the unique items in the decked-out suite. From iconic jerseys, medals, trophies and more, every piece within the suite has a story making this an unforgettable experience. Some unique items within include:
- Entertainment Centre: Packed with DVDs and books of classic Manchester United stories, matches and content, and a record player with Gary’s favourite vinyl’s.
- Memorabilia Wall: Explore cases of cherished memories and iconic moments from Gary’s tenure as a caption.
- Gary’s Snack Bar: An array of Gary’s go-to sweet treats, both from his current cravings and when he was touring with the team.
“I’ve been working with Marriott in Manchester now for many years and wanted to thank Marriott Bonvoy and Marriott Hotels for creating such an extraordinary tribute, and for allowing United fans the chance to experience it,” said Neville. “The Captain’s Suite is a celebration of all the special moments I have had both at Old Trafford and beyond. I can’t wait to meet the lucky fans who stay here and exchange stories about my time on the pitch and their devotion to the Club.”
