Marriott’s luxury lifestyle brand Edition Hotels is set to grow its portfolio to 30 properties by 2027.

Edition Hotels currently operates 15 hotels worldwide, with an additional five set to open next year in Rome, Mexico, Singapore, Jeddah and Tokyo. Expansion will continue into 2024 with signings in destinations such as Lake Como and the Red Sea.

The brand has also unveiled its new standalone luxury residences concept following the success of Edition residences as part of hotel developments in Miami, West Hollywood and Tampa.

The first standalone Edition branded residences are under development in Miami Edgewater and Fort Lauderdale and anticipated to open in 2026 and 2027 respectively.

Josh Fluhr, senior VP and global managing director of Edition Hotels, commented:

“Edition’s rapid hotel growth and the interest from the development community to build standalone residences clearly illustrates the strength of the brand. Extending our luxury lifestyle hospitality brand into the standalone residential arena provides our most loyal guests an opportunity to literally live the Edition lifestyle without leaving home.

“By the end of 2023, we expect that Edition will operate in 20 destinations as we add hotels in new and existing markets across three continents while continuing to build a robust pipeline.”
