The 41 Best Hotel Openings of 2022
Moxy NYC Lower East Side
Moxy’s newest location from the Lightstone Group to sprout in New York is the 303-room Lower East Side outpost. Five F&B concepts by Tao Hospitality Group pay homage to the pleasure gardens and vaudeville theaters that once lined the Bowery. In addition to the greenery-filled Highlight Room on the rooftop, the Michaelis Boyd-designed all-day bar and café the Fix features 3D-printed pinup girls that sway from chandeliers in burlesque poses, while Rockwell Group tapped into ’80s punk culture for Japanese restaurant Sake No Hana, which greets visitors with staircases framed by tapestries that recall kimonos.
