Moxy East Village is comprised of a series of floors, each representative of a certain narrative related to the neighborhood’s essence. For example, the lobby best reflects the industrial nature of the area, nevertheless, most of the hotel’s public spaces also pay homage to the music and art scene of New York, especially in reference to the ’70s and ’80s.

In the bar area, one can be marveled by vintage light fixtures, jewel-toned banquettes and pastoral wallcovering that give a nod to the bucolic past of New York.

In addition, contemporary and traditional elements come together beautifully, such a counter with a classical side made with blocks of solid wood and a more modern side made of veneered multilayer wood. Guests also have the opportunity to make their own art and graffiti through an interactive iPad.
