Hotel Professionals Expanding Global Hotel Brands in Poland

The Moxy franchise agreement signed on August 8 between Centrum Praskie Koneser and Global Hospitality Licencing (Marriott International) is the third Moxy franchise introduced into the Polish market with the advisory support of Hotel Professionals. Investors Liebrecht & wooD Group and BBI Development S.A. have also appointed Hotel Professionals as the management company for the new hotel.

Warsaw Moxy Praga’s opening is planned for the 4Q of 2017. Praga’s new hotel will offer 141 rooms and will be the first representative of Marriott International’s unique lifestyle Moxy brand to be present in Poland.

„The investors of Centrum Praskie Koneser have done an incredible job while creating the hotel concept for Praga’s new multi-use complex. The Praga District is currently undergoing a process of rapid revitalization becoming a unique neighborhood with a growing not only tourist but also business potential. The selection of Koneser as the headquarters of Google Campus is a great example. Warsaw Moxy Praga hotel will definitely cover the hotel gap visible on this side of the Vistula River. We are extremely happy that the investors have selected a lifestyle brand which will reflect the local character of this neighborhood. Lifestyle hotels by definition have to evolve adjusting to the changing tastes of travelers. The new generation of hotel guests are both tourist as well as business travelers searching for local experiences, admiring unique architectural solutions while appreciating places where they can meet, mingle and relax for an affordable price. Warsaw Moxy Praga, as well as the entire Centrum Praskie Koneser complex meet all the requirements necessary for achieving success.” – according to Alex Kloszewski, Managing Director at Hotel Professionals.

„Warsaw Moxy Praga is our third hotel project which selected the Moxy hotel brand. We are excited to take part in introducing new globally branded hotel products into Poland, which add a sense of freshness into the market and are a response to the changing needs of a new generation of hotel guests. Global hotel chains see the growing potential of our country and their interest in our market is undeniable. We are currently in the process of selecting a brand for seven investments in different segments and locations across Poland, what is more some of the new projects may introduce brands not yet present in Poland.” – adds Magda Kossowska, Vice President of Board at Hotel Professionals.
