“We have a legal right to be on the hotel property to inform guests about why we are on strike and how this can impact them. Guests have been very understanding of our message that one job should be enough to live in Hawaii,” says Bernie Sanchez, a server at the Sheraton Maui, “I am very disappointed that Kyo-ya banned us when they claim to be so welcoming to workers.”

Since October 8, 2,700 Marriott hotel workers in Waikiki and Maui are on strike. The strike has been going on for eight days and impacts five hotels operated by Marriott and owned by Kyo-ya: Sheraton Waikiki, The Royal Hawaiian, Westin Moana Surfrider, Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, and Sheraton Maui.

Workers will be picketing at all five hotels for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and are urging visitors and residents to support workers by not patronizing these hotels. The strike has made a significant impact on guest services. All five hotels have had to limit or eliminate guest services such as housekeeping, restaurants, pool services, and more.

Guests have complained that Marriott and Kyo-ya did not give them an advanced notice about the strikes. Upon arrival, guests are receiving letters from management about the limited guest services. Management is only offering compensation to impacted guests on a case-by-case basis.
