NEW ORLEANS—Noble Investment Group is set to open Moxy New Orleans tomorrow, located near the French Quarter on O’Keefe Ave. The news of the hotel’s development was first reported in Hotel Business in February.
“We’re excited to show New Orleans what the Moxy attitude and experience is all about,” said Moxy New Orleans Captain Kenny Jacques. “Moxy, just like the city of New Orleans, is fun, spirited and has its own bold approach to hospitality. We have had a blast adding cultural touches inspired by The Big Easy into our programming—music, art, cocktails and additional surprises. We couldn’t have asked for a better city and a more vibrant culture for one of the first Moxy locations in the United States.”
Moxy New Orleans is a bold, surprising design for the socially extroverted, energetic consumer. According to Noble, the hotel’s style features an industrial-chic look and aesthetic of polished concrete floors, exposed concrete columns and open ceilings, and includes the communal NOW public space and smart, flexible bedroom.
Moxy New Orleans features 108 tech-enabled rooms featuring mobile check-in and checkout; keyless entry; motion-sensor lighting; internet TV in-room featuring Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Pandora and Crackle; numerous power and USB outlets; and free WiFi.
The communal areas feature plug-ins for personal devices, a library zone and the Moxy Digital Guestbook for streaming videos and pictures via Instagram. The NOW public space at Moxy New Orleans features tabletop and game tables. The Moxy ‘B&F’ (beverage & food) strategy includes a 24/7 self-service concept.
