|  | New Marriott Autograph Collection The Marriott Autograph Collection of unique independent hotels recently added three Florida properties to the collection: The Grand Bohemian Hotel in Orlando, The Bohemian Hotel Celebration (formerly Celebration Hotel) in the Kissimmee area and The Casa Monica Hotel in St. Augustine. All three were selected based on Marriott's definition of an Autograph Collection property, "A well-edited ensemble of high-personality and boldly original independent hotels, each carefully selected for its distinctiveness, style and synchronicity with your unique travel interest." From a group standpoint, the three Florida properties offer meeting space as well.
Currently, the Marriott Autograph Collection stands at 10 members, with all but three members being part of The Kessler Collection of luxury boutique hotels. Each Kessler property boasts its own inimitable style with the goal of inspiring guests through art and music. Marriott Autograph properties are divided into several categories: Boutique Arts, Iconic Historic and Boutique Chic, with Urban Edge and Spa & Lodge coming soon.
Two Florida properties fall into the Boutique Arts category.
Downtown Orlando's Grand Bohemian Hotel holds a AAA Four Diamond rating with a total of 247 guest rooms, of which 35 are suites. A concierge level and 9,600 square feet of indoor meeting space, complete with a Fine Art collection lining the walls of the pre-function area, are available to groups. More than 100 rare works of art are found throughout the Grand Bohemian in the eclectic Bosendorfer Lounge and the Klimpt Rotunda, including one of only two Grand Bosendorfer pianos in the world.
