Marriott International’s Autograph Collection will add three properties to its portfolio, including the group’s first hotels in New Orleans and Miami Beach.
The collection of independent hotels now includes New Orleans’ 166-room Saint Hotel, which opened earlier this month, while Miami Beach’s Blue Moon and Winter Haven hotels will be added in April.
Both Miami Beach hotels, which were built in the 1930s, will undergo renovation and restoration this year. The Blue Moon is what used to be the Lafayette and Les Suites hotels.
Marriott, which debuted the Autograph Collection in 2010, is looking to double its number of hotels this year to as many as 60.
Other Autograph Collection properties include New York’s Algonquin and Las Vegas' Cosmopolitan.
