(TAN): Marriott Bonvoy’s Moxy Hotels has opened Moxy Sydney Airport, marking the brand’s debut in Australia. True to the brand’s experiential voice, the hotel reinvents the traditional hotel stay with vibrant guest experiences and lively, sociable service.
Located in Mascot, a suburb in the Inner-South of Sydney, the new 301-bedroom hotel is 10 minutes from Sydney International Airport via Moxy’s pink airport shuttle bus, which greets guests as they arrive. The hotel is easily accessible from Sydney’s bustling CBD and iconic sites, while the local neighbourhood offers an exciting mix of great shopping and delicious dining right on the hotel’s doorstep.

“We are thrilled to continue to grow our global portfolio and introduce the energetic Moxy brand to Australia with the opening of Moxy Sydney Airport,” said Matthew Boettcher, VP and global brand leader of Moxy Hotels. “Sydney is a city of iconic attractions and urban excitement, making it the perfect destination for a spirited brand like Moxy. We look forward to welcoming our fun-hunters to this world-class city and experience Moxy’s young-at-heart spirit and disruptive hotel experience.”
The lobby of Moxy Sydney Airport embodies an open, airy feel reminiscent of converted warehouses, with exposed ceilings, wrought iron beams, and natural elements, honouring Mascot’s historical factory structures. Functioning as both a work and social space, the lobby revolves around the hotel bar, where guests check in while enjoying a complimentary “Get Moxy” signature cocktail. The lobby also houses the Living Room, a relaxed communal area featuring eclectic and nostalgic pieces, such as a 1970s photobooth and vintage lounge chairs.
The industrial-chic bedrooms combine functionality with edgy details, maximizing space with modular furniture including foldable workspace desks and chairs. Smart features like motion-activated LED lights, keyless entry, 55-inch flat-screen TVs, and complimentary Wi-Fi enhance the experience. Artwork by Evi O adorns the bedroom walls, depicting Mascot’s history through an abstract lens. Various room options cater to different needs, including king, queen, twin, and quad bunk configurations. Guests can stay active in the 24/7 gym or explore the area with Moxy bikes.
