An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Ritz-Carlton phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Ritz-Carlton staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call Ritz-Carlton is Thursday. The most busy day to call is Friday. Again, this is based on a sample of 74 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.
The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Thursday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Monday.
The best time to call
In summation, the best day to call Ritz-Carlton is Thursday. In this case, it's a no-brainer. Thursday is not only the least busy day for calling this Ritz-Carlton number, but it is also the day with the shortest hold times.

My Experience Calling 800-236-6426

Mar 20, 2024

I booked a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton, but my travel dates have changed and I need to adjust my booking. The easiest way to take care of the task seemed to be to just call the hotel and change my booking. 

They probably get a fair amount of phone calls about people changing thier bookings or possibly from new customers making bookings. Therefore, I expected to be on hold for an extended period, but it took less than two minutes to get to a representative which I appreciated. 

When I called, a voice assistant answered and said, "Thank you for calling Marriot International. To speak with a live agent, please press 1 now." This confused me for a second, but then I realized that Marriot must own the Ritz-Carlton brand. Once I figured that out, I pressed 1 and the voice assistant stated, "This call may be monitored and recorded for training purposes."

There was another pause and then it said, "To evaluate today’s experience using a short survey please press 1 now. To decline, please press 2 or stay on the line." I just ignored it and stayed on the line because I don't like feeling obligated to agree to a survey when I haven't even finished the phone call yet. 

A very pleasant agent picked up the phone and said, "To evaluate today’s experience using a short survey please press 1 now. To decline, please press 2 or stay on the line." It only took another couple of minutes to get the reservation changed and the agent was polite and helpful. I appreciated the quick customer service and would call back again if I had any other issues in the future.

More Ways to Contact Ritz-Carlton Customer Service

There are of course other ways to contact Ritz-Carlton customer service besides the phone. Below we list the best ones, by medium.
Ritz-Carlton's website
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Ritz-Carlton customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
