I've been a Marriott member for 17 years (the year I graduated OSU and started a big boy job).

I'm platinum for life now and the perks are great. I got upgraded to a sick suite when I went to San Antonio for a conference. Thing had double doors for the entrance and a back door out.

I think they are all generally the same in the US, but Marriott just has more hotels more places IMO. There are 10X as many marriott properties as Hilton properties for example. almost 6000 to almost 600. When I joined I did it because I liked them before they merged with Starwood. Once they merged they were huge and it was great. starwood had/has some very good brands like Westins and Ws which are 'cooler' spots

It was a sad day when Marriott won the bid for Starwood.

There are actually 7000 Hilton properties around the world.
