Moxy Hotels Debuts in Eschborn, Frankfurt

BETHESDA, Md. and FRANKFURT, Germany, Aug. 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Moxy Hotels, Marriott's bold lifestyle hotel brand, continues to shake up traditional hospitality with the opening of its brand new outpost in Eschborn, Frankfurt. Offering the spirited and stylish hotel experience that Next Generation travellers crave, Moxy Frankfurt Eschborn embodies the style and soul of a boutique hotel while being surprisingly affordable. Moxy Frankfurt Eschborn joins Moxy Munich Airport as the brand's second experiential select service hotel in Germany.

"Moxy Hotels is on a mission to reinvent the select-service hotel experience and accentuate the services that millennials want most," said Vicki Poulos, global brand director, Moxy Hotels. "Friendly welcomes, thoughtful touches and inviting social spaces are the marks of Moxy hospitality as we aim to give guests everything they need and nothing they don't."

Welcome #ATTHEMOXY
Moxy's fun, inclusive and youthful spirit is reflected in the combination of bold design and affordable style where communal engagement is at the centre of the experience. The interiors fuse refined and raw materials, organic and linear lines, and shared spaces. The Moxy experience kicks-off with a bright, airy and buzzing lobby. The contemporary lobby's modern furniture invites guests to relax, pick up a book from the Moxy library, connect and catch up with friends or retreat to the gym to re-energise by punching the pink Moxy punching bag.

Living Room #ATTHEMOXY
Moxy Frankfurt Eschborn's living room is the centre of activity, giving guests fun ways to work and play hard. Sealed concrete floors, walls lined with intriguing art and fun references to local culture including artistic beer jugs displayed on the walls are complemented by ambient lighting and comfortable accents of colour. The Living Room also features abundant power and USB outlets, and furiously fast and free Wi-Fi for ultimate connectivity. A high-energy yet cosy space for gatherings, special events or cocktails, the lounge plays host to eclectic upbeat music that sets just the right mood. 

Stay #ATTHEMOXY
Located in Eschborn, just 15 minutes by car or train from Frankfurt, the 176 contemporary guest rooms are outfitted with sound-reducing walls, 42" LCD flat screen televisions, free Wi-Fi, comfortable bedding and deep-seated armchairs in calming, neutral fabrics. Every bedroom makes a statement with a fun floor to ceiling art piece. The design is functional and uncluttered with simple, thoughtful touches including glass shelving and open closets. Stylish bathrooms feature complimentary Muk toiletries, bright pink hair dryers, power showers and large mirrors alongside a spacious vanity area.

24/7 Dining #ATTHEMOXY
Moxy's B&F (Beverage & Food) strategy was thoughtfully designed with the target audience in mind – seamless, smart and fun. Moxy Frankfurt Eschborn's 24/7 self-service concept gives guests access to what they want, whenever they want it. The Moxy dining area offers plentiful options for food and drink including fresh juices and a coffee bar.

Cocktails, craft beers and specialty wines will be served.
