MOXY, MANCHESTER
EMMAUS were involved from site acquisition where there was a pre-existing planning consent for an office development on the site.
Moxy Manchester involved transforming a former hat factory in the city's vibrant Spinningfields district.
Turning an office consent into a hotel wasn’t straightforward. With its large open-floor plans, wall-to-wall glazing, and unsuited stair and lift cores, there were inherent challenges in translating this one into a boutique lifestyle hotel. The building is also on a tight city centre site includes the façade retention of a listed building (the historic Invicta House).
The final result is a stunning building home to 146 bedrooms as well as a bar. The specification complies with the Marriott standards and we were employed by the hotel developer.
