The budget lifestyle brand of Marriott International’s, Moxy has opened its largest UK property to date, a 437-bedroom hotel at London’s Heathrow Airport.
Launched this week on 10 April 2018, this is the third London hotel to be opened under the brand in just over a year.
Moxy Heathrow is aiming to appeal to both business and leisure travelers featuring 23 family rooms, 328 standard queen-sized and 86 twin bedrooms. Located close to Terminals Two and Three, it is offering the parking for up to 122 cars as part of its Park and Fly packages.
The brand’s twist on the general manager, Aga Maciejewska has been authorized as “captain” of Moxy Heathrow. Following a number of global management jobs with Marriott, this is her first UK hotel opening.
She said: “The Moxy brand has been developed to be more than just bedrooms, it’s a way of doing things differently in the hotel arena. The way it has been designed as a tech-friendly hotel with a great bar and playful crew all represent an important part in the experience of staying at the hotel.”
Already operating 11 Moxy hotels and three Courtyard by Marriott hotels, Belvar, will be running the latest addition to the Moxy portfolio. The company is also owning the restaurant brand called Gård Nordic Kitchen, which it will make its debut in the UK market at Moxy Heathrow.
Owned by Marriott International, Moxy is one of its 30 brands. Making its European debut in 2014 with the launch of a property in Milan, it has since grown to 20 hotels worldwide, further having 90 properties in the global pipeline.
Four more Moxy hotels are to open in the UK in 2018, which includes Glasgow (181 rooms), York (119 bedrooms), Edinburgh (230 rooms), and Southampton (209 rooms).
They will be joining the Moxy’s three existing UK hotels at Aberdeen Airport and in London at Stratford, Excel, and now at Heathrow.
