The Buffalo Marriott Niagara is in Amherst, in the Buffalo metropolitan area. A hotel is an operating business wrapped in real estate, so the brand on the sign, the company that manages it, and the party that owns the building are usually three different entities. The owner that matters for a sale, a loan, or an approach is the fee owner recorded in the public record.

Does Marriott own Buffalo Marriott Niagara?
Usually not in the real-estate sense. Marriott is the brand (and, through its parent, often the operator) of Buffalo Marriott Niagara, but the building itself is owned by a separate party. In the most recent public record, the real estate was recorded as sold to an entity named Amherst Lodging Partners for $14.4 million on March 21, 2023. The flag on the sign is rarely the owner on the deed.
Is hotel ownership public record?
Yes. The transfer of real estate is recorded at the county recorder or register of deeds, the tax assessment is public at the county assessor, and the owning company is registered with the secretary of state. The legal owner of a hotel is therefore public, though the individuals behind a holding company are not always disclosed.
