There is no place more challenging in Australia to secure new hotel footholds than Sydney CBD, so this signing is remarkable.
Marriott International has announced the signing of the agreement for Moxy Sydney Pitt Street, scheduled to open in August 2025.
This signing comes only months following the opening of the landmark 301-room Moxy Sydney Airport, the first hotel for the spirited and experiential brand in Australia.
