Moxy Atlanta Midtown, 13th Street, Atlanta, GA |
Atlanta, GA – Marriott
International (NASDAQ: MAR) and Noble Investment Group (“Noble”) celebrated the
groundbreaking of what will be Marriott’s first-ever combination of an AC and
Moxy under one roof.
The $70 million,
five-story hotel project will rise on a full city block in Midtown Atlanta, one
of America’s most dynamic business districts and a regional epicenter for music
and arts. The hotel is expected to open in the middle of 2018.
“Midtown Atlanta is the
perfect place to debut this visionary, two-in-one lifestyle hotel, which will
become a go-to destination for both business and leisure travelers,” said Tony Capuano, Marriott’s Executive Vice
President and Global Chief Development Officer. “We’re thrilled to be working
with our great partners at Noble to launch these exciting brands in dynamic
markets throughout North America.”
With an entrance on 14th
Street, the 133-room AC Hotel Atlanta Midtown will feature guestrooms and
suites with modern and sophisticated design elements, plush seating and
multifunctional workspaces.

The 155-room Moxy Atlanta
Midtown, which guests will enter on 13th Street, will feature stylish,
tech-enabled bedrooms with optional mobile check-in and check-out; keyless
entry; motion sensor lighting; internet TV in-room; USB outlets; and furiously
fast and free Wi-Fi for ultimate connectivity.
Both hotels will have
distinct hospitality experiences inside and will share a deck-top amenity level
that will contain shared meeting space with outdoor break-out space, health and
fitness and a rooftop pool and bar with outdoor fire pits.
As part of this project,
Noble will also help establish the missing link in an extensive pedestrian
connector. To be called the Arts Walk, the ground-level path will provide direct
access for hotel guests and local residents to walk from 14th Street to the
lively Crescent Avenue entertainment and dining district, to the more than 20
million square feet of corporate office and the world-renowned Woodruff Arts
Center along 15th Street.
The connector will
eventually stretch from the Woodruff Arts Center to high-speed public
transportation at the 10th Street MARTA station.
“We are proud to continue
to expand upon our more than 20-year partnership with Marriott with our
development of the first, dual-branded AC Hotel and Moxy Hotel in the world,”
said Mit Shah, Noble CEO. “Midtown
Atlanta has become one of the best live, work, learn, stay, shop and play
communities in the United States and we are excited to bring these iconic new
lifestyle brands to our hometown."
