Marriott reveals opening date for Moxy Hotel in York
Marriott’s lifestyle brand Moxy Hotels has announced that its latest hotel will launch in York at the end of July.
Located centrally in Stonebow in the heart of the city, the new hotel will offer 118 bedrooms and will open it doors on July 25.
Creating 17 jobs, Belvar, the management group operating the hotel, have appointed Tristan Ciancio as ‘captain’ of the property, the brand’s take on a general manager.
He said: “I am proud to be opening this hotel where there is nothing quite like Moxy York in the city. We think guests will love the quirky and playful spirit that Moxy brings, especially the striking design element which will really impress guests as it sums up York beautifully.”
Donovan Sumner, Moxy operations officer UK, said: “This is our fourth hotel opening in England in just over two years but most significantly our first hotel in an English city location outside of London.
“Moxy Edinburgh Airport also opened earlier this year and the brand is expanding nicely across the UK. Thanks to the hotel’s lively and dynamic social scene, Moxy is now at the forefront of new trends within the hotel industry. For us it’s about creating the unexpected for millennial travellers where choice is at a premium. Tristan’s reputation and vast hotel experience is a huge asset to Moxy and we look forward to throwing open the doors to Moxy York this summer.”
