Marriott buys Canada's Delta hotel chain

Hotel deals seem to be a trend...only a few days ago, Intercontinental picked up the Kimpton chain of quirky boutique hotels...

It is actually a great move on Marriott's part, because they don't have that much of a presence in Canada.  Delta runs quality hotels and are in many Canadian cities.  And a benefit of the strong US $.  You can buy foreign goods at a discount now, including hotels.
