Marriott launched the Moxy brand in 2013, with the first hotel opening in Milan the following year.

The brand currently has around 70 properties across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, with recent openings including a Southampton property by the West Quay Shopping Centre near the city’s marina, and Moxy Osaka Shin Umeda.

Commenting on the opening said Jennie Toh, vice president, brand, Asia Pacific, Marriott International, said:

“Across the Asia Pacific region and the world, the strong growth of our playful Moxy brand is proof that its brand philosophy resonates with millennial and next-gen guests, who seek a hotel stay at an affordable price point, saving on space and splurging on experiences.

“We are excited to be bringing the Moxy brand to Taiwan with the opening of Moxy Taichung, and to welcome travellers to the Moxy experience in this dynamic, future-forward city.”
