Moxy Hotels, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel brands, has just announced the opening of Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong, marking the brand’s debut in Thailand. We have just detailed the best cheapest Marriott hotels in Bangkok, and this hotel takes one of the top positions.
While Moxy isn’t a luxury brand, and their rooms are compact, these hotels are all relatively new, and their rooms are modern. More importantly, the hotel’s communal areas are fun, vibrant, and stylish, making this brand a great budget base for travelers.
Nestled within Ratchaprasong, the bustling hub of commerce and retail in central Bangkok, this expansive 504-room hotel stands as the flagship Moxy in the Asia Pacific. It finds itself amidst a vibrant tapestry of premier shopping destinations, chic eateries, and vibrant nightlife spots, all conveniently located near 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 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. At the 9th-floor welcome area and bar, guests can enjoy a relaxed check-in experience amidst urban design elements infused with vibrant colors inspired by the renowned Scala Cinema and graffiti walls depicting the “yak” – majestic figures from Thai mythology.
The Library & Plug-In area beckons guests to unwind, work on their laptops, or engage in a game of pool in the communal lounge. It serves as a gathering spot for adventurers. These luminous and interconnected spaces cater perfectly to digital nomads seeking inspiration amidst the city’s energy, serving as a hub where creativity flourishes and innovative ideas are born.
The hotel’s 504 stylish guest rooms seamlessly blend functionality with contemporary flair, featuring unique accents like elephant head coat pegs. Designed with versatility in mind, the rooms boast modular furniture and inventive features such as peg walls, allowing guests to customize their space according to their preferences. Tech-savvy amenities include motion-activated LED lighting, keyless entry, 55-inch flat-screen TVs, and Wi-Fi access.
For on-the-go refreshments, Moxy Grab + Go offers a selection of snacks and beverages 24/7, ensuring freshness and variety. Meanwhile, the vibrant Moxy Bar & Restaurant, bathed in natural light and offering views of the Bangkok skyline, serves as a lively venue for daily breakfast, light lunches, and energizing dinners. Combining Eastern and Western influences with locally sourced ingredients, it promises a culinary journey for the senses. Additionally, guests can look forward to the opening of the hotel’s chic rooftop bar, promising unforgettable evenings with sunset cocktails and panoramic views of the cityscape.
Catering to business needs, the hotel offers a 34 m² meeting room flooded with natural light and equipped with a flat-screen TV. For those seeking to rejuvenate, the gym features Moxy’s signature pink boxing bag, all while overlooking the captivating 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.”
