Communal lounge area
In the mood for a fun, sophisticated getaway without having to go very far? The new Moxy Omaha Downtown is making quite a splash on the local scene as the city’s latest staycation hotspot.
Open since October 2023, the boutique Marriott-branded property has quickly established itself as a hotel of choice for adventurous travelers looking to make the most of their time in downtown Omaha. Even before guests walk through the door, the Moxy makes a distinctive impression all its own.
“We are the only Moxy in the entire state of Nebraska,” said Michelle Schultz, NCG Hospitality’s corporate director of digital sales and marketing. “There’s no standard lobby here; Bar Moxy is a fun and trendy bar that also doubles as the front reception desk and check-in area. Guests check in with the bartender for your room key and receive a complimentary cocktail (or mocktail) at the same time.”
Bar Moxy
The Moxy boasts prime “location, location, location” in close proximity to many of Omaha’s most popular downtown attractions, making it the perfect overnight spot for visitors who want to explore and experience the city’s buzziest restaurants, art galleries, nightlife venues, bars and shopping destinations.
“We’re within walking distance of the Gene Leahy Mall and the Old Market,” Schultz said. “Nearby, the CHI Health Center hosts live entertainment, sporting events, conventions, meetings and weddings, and Charles Schwab Field is home to the Division I Creighton University Bluejays men’s baseball team.”
Back at home base, Bar Moxy stays open until 2 a.m. pouring from a nicely vetted selection of wine, hometown brews and handcrafted cocktails for the ideal nightcap, flowing into a classy communal lounge area that feels more like a chic living room with soft seating, tire swings, shuffleboard and other games. When morning rolls around, the space transforms into breakfast central with coffee and made-to-order menu items, and food service continues throughout the day and evening with delicious sandwiches, small plates and flatbreads.
A grab-and-go mini market stays open 24/7 to accommodate cravings with assorted snacks and beverages, and a modern full-circuit fitness center gives guests the chance to burn off excess energy any time of the day or night.
Guest room, 1 Queen
The property’s 113 well-appointed guest rooms make the most of their compact footprint with attractive amenities like free high-speed Wi-Fi connections, 55-inch flat screen HD televisions and sassy contemporary décor in keeping with the whole Moxy vibe. And feel free to bring your four-legged friend along; all accommodations here are pet-friendly. The hotel even offers a “Paws N Pamper” pet package to spoil your pooch with a collapsible water bowl, waste bags and his or her very own tennis ball to play with.
“Moxy caters to fun seekers, the young at heart, concertgoers and those who live in the moment,” Schultz said. “The hotel staff is dedicated to making our guests’ stays memorable and entertaining, whether they’re in town for a concert, a girls’ getaway or a business trip.”
