Moxy Hotels, part
of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel brands, proudly
announced the opening of Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong, marking the brand’s debut in
Thailand and introduces a new era of playful, social hospitality to the
captivating capital city.
Situated
in Ratchaprasong, the dynamic commercial and retail district of downtown
Bangkok, the 504-room hotel – the largest Moxy in Asia Pacific – is surrounded
by an eclectic mix of world-class shopping, stylish restaurants, and lively
bars with easy access to the BTS skytrain and Chit Lom Station.
“The
opening of Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong brings Moxy’s fun style of hospitality to
Bangkok, one of the world’s most fun-filled cities,” said Matthew Boettcher,
Vice President of Distinctive Select Brand Portfolio, Marriott International.
“The draw of the Moxy brand is its ability to create a playful experience
that’s inspired by the surrounding city, and Bangkok is a perfect fit for our
brand entry into the country.”
Rising
from the bustling curbside of Ratchadamri Road, Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong
shines its distinctive pink glow on the downtown skyline. Guests can enjoy a
casual check-in at the 9th-floor welcome area and bar where urban design is
brought to life with splashes of color inspired by the legendary Scala Cinema,
and walls of graffiti depicting the “yak” – giant figures often depicted in
Thai mythology. The Library & Plug-In area invites guests to sit back,
chill out and work on their laptops, or shoot some pool in the communal lounge.
Whether traveling solo or with friends, this space is where fun-hunters come
together, share stories, and exchange experiences. The bright and fully
connected spaces are perfect for digital nomads who want to switch on and be
inspired by the buzz of the city – making it a spot where inspiration is
unleashed, and new ideas are hatched.
The
504 sleek guest rooms combine functionality and flexibility with edgy detail,
evident through clever touches such as elephant heads as coat pegs. Cleverly
designed to maximize space, guestrooms feature modular furniture and smart
features like peg walls that offer the flexibility to adapt the room to the
unique needs of each guest. Tech-savvy touches include motion-activated LED
lights, keyless entry, 55-inch flat-screen TVs and Wi-Fi.
Moxy
Grab + Go offers 24/7 snacks and drinks that are selected daily ensuring
freshness and variety, while the bright, open-plan Moxy Bar & Restaurant
extends outdoors overlooking the Bangkok skyline. A lively spot to refuel with
daily breakfast, light lunches, and energizing evening meals, Moxy Bar &
Restaurant is a fusion of East meets West featuring locally sourced
ingredients. Soon-to-open is the hotel’s chic rooftop bar uplifting evenings
with sunset cocktails or parties that overlook the glittering cityscape.
Facilitating
meetings and private events is a 34-sqm meeting room with ample natural light
and equipped with a flat-screen TV. For guests looking to reenergize, the gym
features Moxy's signature pink boxing bag while overlooking the Bangkok
skyline.
“We
can’t wait to welcome the world to Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong,” comments
Porntita Bheungnoi, Captain at Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong. “This sleek urban
hotel will give free-thinking travelers everything they want. With spirited
service from our Moxy Crew, this vibrant hotel will become the new place for
guests to stay and play in the heart of Bangkok.”
