Moxy Asheville Celebrates Hotel Grand Opening with Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony

The Moxy Asheville, North Carolina’s premier Moxy flagship, has officially opened its doors and is now welcoming reservations. The six-story, 115-room hotel marked its grand opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, featuring speeches from project partners and local officials.

Situated in a prime spot on Biltmore Avenue, Moxy Asheville offers a fresh and lively alternative to traditional downtown accommodations.

Guests are welcomed with a complimentary cocktail, mocktail, or coffee at Bar Moxy—an iconic feature of the Moxy brand that promises a fun and playful start to their stay.

Moxy Asheville’s communal areas and guest rooms are designed to be unique and inviting, encouraging guests to unwind and mingle.

The hotel’s vibrant lobby, featuring modern furnishings, flexible workspaces, and a cutting-edge video wall, fosters creativity and social interaction.

Additionally, the lobby houses a grab-and-go market, offering a selection of healthy continental breakfast items and convenient items for guests on the go.

"Our team is thrilled to welcome this exciting new property to the portfolio," said J.B. McKibbon, president of McKibbon Equities. "Asheville has solidified itself as a must-visit destination in the south and as we expand our footprint in North Carolina we couldn't be prouder to share the beloved Moxy brand with this community and its visitors."

Embodying Asheville's creative and eclectic spirit, Moxy Asheville and Wildwood Still showcase the work of nearly 20 local and regional artists.

Highlights include North Carolina's tallest mural by Scott Allred of Bruschcan Studios, adorning the hotel’s exterior, and a 120-gallon custom moonshine still from Ace Custom Copper, which serves as a striking entrance feature to the rooftop bar and restaurant.
