Autograph Collection Hotels, Marriott International’s exclusive portfolio of hotels recognised for celebrating individuality, has announced that luxurious boutique property Gewandhaus Dresden has joined the portfolio. It becomes the second Autograph Hotel in Germany alongside Hotel am Steinplatz, Berlin.

Autograph Collection has added a new Netherlands-based hotel to its portfolio: Hotel van Oranje in Noordwijk. The hotel complements Autograph Collection’s continually growing portfolio of upscale and independent hotels as the collection expands across Europe and beyond.

Marriott International is planning to expand its Autograph Collection portfolio in Europe with exciting new additions in Zurich, Switzerland and Barcelona, Spain. Opening next year, the one-of-a-kind hotels will represent the debut of the exclusive portfolio of independent hotels in each city.

The Autograph Collection is debuting the Powerscourt Hotel in County Wicklow, Ireland, representing the first Autograph Collection hotel in Ireland.

The Autograph Collection, Marriott International’s exclusive portfolio of upscale, independent hotels continues to grow in Europe with the introduction of two new extraordinary travel experiences this spring.  Threadneedles, in the heart of London’s financial district, and The Glasshouse in central Edinburgh, Scotland, will represent the Autograph Collection’s first hotels in the United Kingdom. The additions are set to expand the exclusive portfolio of upscale, independent lifestyle hotels to include more than 40 exceptional hotel experiences in the United States, Europe, Caribbean, and South America.

Autograph Collection will debut in Germany later this year with the opening of the 87-room Hotel am Steinplatz in Berlin.  The 100 year old property, which will re-open following an extensive renovation, joins a number of Autograph Collection properties currently scheduled to open in Europe this year.
