Habtoor Resort & Spa joins Autograph Collection

Abu Dhabi: Habtoor Grand Beach Resort & Spa, a beachfront resort in Dubai, has joined the Autograph Collection, Marriott International’s global portfolio of independently owned hotels.

The new partnership is expected to raise the Habtoor Grand Resort & Spa’s status in the region by participating in Autograph’s global sales and marketing channels, the Marriott Rewards frequent travel programme, and the company’s management and franchise expertise.

Autograph Collection is a group of independent hotels, with each destination selected for its uncommon details. The partnership will also allow Autograph Collection to leverage the expertise of a successful local brand with a strong heritage to further expand its footprint across the region.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the hotel said it welcomed a new Consultant General Manager, Rick Zeolla who will lead the beachfront property with more than 25 years of hospitality experience.
