One lucky fan will have the chance to meet legendary Manchester United player Gary Neville, enjoy an exclusive overnight stay in the newly revamped Marriott Hotels’ Suite of Dreams at Old Trafford, and experience the excitement of the Manchester Derby.
As part of its exclusive partnership with Manchester United, Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott International’s award-winning travel program, and Marriott Hotels are reimagining the iconic Suite of Dreams for its fifth year as “The Captain’s Suite.” This special tribute honors Gary Neville, one of the club’s most decorated players, who made over 600 appearances, captained the team for five years, and secured an impressive collection of trophies, including eight Premier League titles, two Champions League titles, and multiple domestic and international cups.
Starting today, Manchester United fans can enter for a chance to win a night in this uniquely designed suite before watching Manchester United take on Manchester City in April. The winner and their guest will have the rare opportunity to sit down with Neville himself, hearing personal stories from his career and discovering the inspiration behind the memorabilia displayed in the suite. The room will showcase iconic jerseys, medals, trophies, and cherished mementos that highlight Neville’s incredible journey with the club.
The Captain’s Suite is designed to immerse fans in Neville’s legacy. An entertainment center will feature classic Manchester United books, DVDs of legendary matches, and a record player stocked with Neville’s favorite vinyls. A memorabilia wall will showcase treasured artifacts from his time as captain, while a custom snack bar will include his favorite sweet treats, both from his playing days and today.
Neville expressed his excitement about the project, stating that working with Marriott in Manchester over the years has been a rewarding experience. He praised Marriott Bonvoy and Marriott Hotels for creating such a meaningful tribute and offering United fans a chance to be part of it. He looks forward to meeting the lucky winners and sharing stories about his career and their passion for the club.
The full experience includes an overnight stay in The Captain’s Suite, a guided tour of Old Trafford’s Museum and Stadium, and two tickets to the highly anticipated Manchester Derby. To enter, fans must be Marriott Bonvoy members, with sign-ups available at marriottbonvoy.com. Entries can be submitted at manutd.com/CaptainsSuite.
Peggy Roe, Executive Vice President and Chief Customer Officer of Marriott International, emphasized that The Captain’s Suite allows fans to connect with Manchester United’s rich history through Gary Neville’s journey. She described the experience as truly once-in-a-lifetime, offering unforgettable memories whether guests are staying at one of Marriott Bonvoy’s 10,000 destinations or cheering on Manchester United at Old Trafford.
This exclusive experience is just one of the many ways Marriott Bonvoy continues to bring football fans closer to the game and their favorite club.
