Moxy Louisville Downtown Opens Today, Enhancing the Spirit of Historic Whiskey Row

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Moxy Hotels, Marriott International's experiential brand, has arrived in downtown Louisville and is ready to disrupt the Derby City hotel experience for the young-at-heart traveler. Moxy Louisville Downtown is located on Louisville's Whiskey Row, and the boutique style hotel with the social heart of a hostel offers buzzing social spaces, stylish and affordable guest rooms, co-working spaces, and a 24/7 taco counter. Moxy Louisville Downtown is the 21st Moxy property to open in the U.S. and is a perfect fit for Louisville's authentic personality and burgeoning urban bourbon scene. 

Moxy Louisville Downtown was developed by White Lodging, Poe Companies, and REI Real Estate Services. White Lodging will manage the hotel and restaurants alongside its other eight hotels in Louisville, including the new Hotel Distil, Repeal Oak-Fired Steakhouse and Bitters End, which also opened today.   

Moxy Louisville Downtown offers 110 guest rooms featuring an industrial chic style with in-room features from plush platform beds to a fun-size work surface, peg walls instead of closets, and floor-to-ceiling windows with many rooms featuring outstanding views of the Ohio River. Every bedroom makes a statement with vibrant art pieces, flexible furniture, and thoughtful touches. Always-connected travelers will enjoy mobile check-in and checkout, abundant power and USB outlets, and furiously fast and free Wi-Fi. The playful feel carries into the bathrooms, featuring Muk toiletries, walk-in rain showers, hot pink hair dryers, and large mirrors alongside a spacious vanity area.

"We're excited to bring a new buzzing energy to Whiskey Row, where guests can play and not take themselves too seriously," said Captain/General Manager of Moxy Louisville Downtown, Justin Weeks.

Moxy Louisville Downtown features Bar Moxy on its ground-floor level, a playful bar that also operates as the hotel's front desk – with a complimentary #GotMoxy cocktail upon check-in. Bar Moxy features a curated music program with activations including spinning DJs. The bar will be the place to drink, eat, and socialize where the energy will build throughout the day – for Moxy guests and locals alike.

Located alongside Bar Moxy, Zombie Taco is a 24/7 food truck-inspired concept to serve Louisville's darkest taco desires, from Thick Cut Jalapeno Tacos to mouthwatering breakfast burritos. The made-to-order menu items satisfy cravings whenever they strike. This is the restaurant concept's second location following its successful opening in Chicago in 2018.

Some of the hotel's regular events and specials include My Second Favorite F Word on Fridays, featuring 50% off large-format cocktails from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m.; Taco Tuesday, featuring discounted tacos and drinks from 2 to 10 p.m.; and Adulting Is Hard Happy Hour, offered every weekday from 3 to 6 p.m. featuring $5 draft cocktails and draft beer, and half-priced chips and dip.

Halloween Fun on October 30-31, 2019

On October 30, the Moxy and Zombie Taco – alongside the Kentucky Humane Society – will be hosting a Howl-a-Ween dog parade and costume contest along Washington Street from 5 to 7 p.m. The Humane Society will receive 25% of the proceeds during the event. On October 31 from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., the hotel will host a Heroes + Villains costume party at Bar Moxy, featuring BOOze, a DJ set, and spooky specials.
