Condé Nast Traveler has announced the results of its annual Readers’ Choice Awards with Lightstone’s Moxy Hotels awarded as top hotels in New York City and Miami. Moxy East Village, Moxy Times Square, and Moxy Chelsea were recognized as the 14th, 15th, and 16th best hotels in the city, respectively. Moxy South Beach was named the 9th best hotel in Miami. This represents the third consecutive year that Moxy Chelsea and Moxy Times Square have been recognized among the top 20 hotels in New York City.
More than 240,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers submitted responses rating their travel experiences across the globe to provide a full snapshot of the top places they enjoyed this year and can’t wait to return to next. The Readers’ Choice Awards are the longest-running and most prestigious recognition of excellence in the travel industry and the full list of winners can be found here.
“We are honored to be recognized by Condé Nast Traveler’s discerning readers who share an appreciation for Moxy’s comprehensive guest experiences, vibrant design, and unmatched service,” shared Mitchell Hochberg, President of Lightstone. “We are particularly honored to be the only brand and owner to have all of our New York City hotels within the city’s top 20 list.”
The collection of Moxy hotels developed by Lightstone is embraced by true explorers who seek a different, authentic experience each time they travel. Guests can trust that each property will reflect the lifestyle and culture of its location while still offering the most dynamic public spaces and amenities at an affordable price. The pioneer was Moxy Times Square in 2017, followed in 2019 by Moxy Chelsea, the Flower District’s refined yet playful “secret garden,” and Moxy East Village, whose design reflected the neighborhood’s historically rebellious spirit. 2021 brought Moxy South Beach, the brand’s first resort-style hotel while Moxy Lower East Side will debut in November 2022. Moxy Downtown Los Angeles and AC Hotel Downtown Los Angeles as well as New York’s Moxy Williamsburg are all slated to open in the coming months.
The 2022 Readers’ Choice Awards are published on Condé Nast Traveler’s website at cntraveler.com/rca and celebrated in the November issue.
