Moxy Hotels has officially opened its doors in Kathmandu, marking the brand's debut in Nepal. Situated in the bustling Durbarmarg district, Moxy Kathmandu is just 15 minutes from Tribhuvan International Airport, providing easy access to the city's cultural and entertainment hotspots, including the UNESCO-listed Durbar Square and the lively Thamel markets.
The hotel aims to redefine hospitality with its distinctive approach, combining local design elements with flexible social spaces. "Moxy’s bold, playful spirit is perfectly suited for a city like Kathmandu," said Kiran Andicot, Senior Vice President, South Asia, Marriott International. The hotel features 101 guestrooms designed to maximise space and functionality, complete with smart features like motion-activated LED lights and modular furniture.
Guests are welcomed with a complimentary cocktail at the Moxy Bar, which doubles as the check-in counter. The open lobby, adorned with Nepali-inspired modern artwork, encourages interaction and creativity. The hotel also offers a Play Zone for games like air hockey and board games, enhancing its vibrant social atmosphere.
Dining at Moxy Kathmandu is an experience in itself. LA HACIENDA – Barra y Cocina Latina, located on Level 11, offers a culinary journey through Latin America, curated by Chef Martin Hernandez Lopez. For a more relaxed setting, CARIÑO – Terraza Latina provides an open-air terrace with city skyline views.
Subarna Thapa, Captain of Moxy Kathmandu, expressed excitement about the hotel's unique offering: "We’re bringing a hotel experience that’s bold, social, and full of personality." With its dynamic spirit and immersive design, Moxy Kathmandu is set to become a lifestyle destination for both international travellers and locals.
