Marriott signs new London branded residences deal

Marriott International has signed an agreement with Gulf Islamic Investments (GII) to introduce The Lucan, Autograph Collection Residences in London.

The move will be the first standalone Autograph Collection Residences anywhere in the world.

The Lucan, Autograph Collection Residences is very-much aimed at the super rich with features like a 24-hour valet service with underground garage parking. Residents will also have access to an in-house concierge team with opportunities for private dining, parties and events, and personal shopping.
