Second, the Autograph Collection does provide full elite benefits; Design Hotels do not.
Third, I'd strongly recommend the Excelsior Gallia (Luxury Collection) if you want the nicest possible stay in the Marriott portfolio.
Yeah Gallia is very nice, but the price is double, even using points. The peak period make Gallia from 20k to 25k / night. Palazzo need 40k marriott (13.333 Star points)
Is it worth to stay on Gallia?
