Moxy Sydney Airport has been named 'Best Airport Hotel' in Spice Magazine's annual Hot 100 Hotels and Venues, recognising the brand's fresh take on the traditional airport hotel experience.
Moxy Sydney Airport has redefined what an airport hotel can be—an approach that has clearly resonated with both guests and the travel industry.
For seamless airport pick up and drop offs, guests can take advantage of pre-booked convenient airport transfers via Sydney Super Shuttle, operating from 4:45am to 10:50pm, helping to remove the stress from travel logistics.
From the moment guests arrive, the experience sets itself apart, beginning with a signature welcome cocktail at check-in. Designed with modern travellers in mind, the hotel blends style, comfort and functionality to create a space where guests can truly unwind before take-off.
The hotel features award-winning design, a vibrant lobby with communal lounge areas, and thoughtfully designed workspaces equipped with power points and USB ports. A playful atmosphere encourages guests to relax and connect, with amenities such as Skee-Ball, table tennis and a variety of games.
Moxy's ethos is all about play and living life to the fullest, so it's fitting that the hotel has lined up regular weekly entertainment for guests to enjoy. If you happen to arrive on a Tuesday, you can join the 'Moxy Quiz Night' and maybe meet a few new friends. Prefer to unwind instead? Thursdays bring 'DJ Nights', while at the end of a long week, guests can sit back with a drink and discover emerging musical talent at the live 'Moxy Play Live' sessions.
Guests can enjoy craft cocktails and dining at Bar Moxy, alongside stylish rooms offering runway or city views, with double- and triple-glazed windows ensuring a peaceful night's sleep even in the heart of the airport precinct. Accommodation options cater to a wide range of travellers—from solo guests to families and groups—with flexible configurations including quad bunk rooms, loft rooms, and interconnecting options combining queen and bunk or loft layouts. Runway-view rooms have proven especially popular with aviation enthusiasts and families alike, offering both comfort and a unique airport experience.
Sustainability is also a key focus, with features such as water refill stations on every floor to reduce single-use plastics and allows guests to fill their own water bottles before they head to the airport.
We are delighted to receive this award, which reflects that what our team is delivering truly resonates with guests. Our goal is to create a space where locals and travellers can connect, unwind, and enjoy every moment—because the fun doesn't stop just because you're near the airport,” said Aidee Medina, Marketing Manager, Moxy Sydney Airport.
For those who need to start the day with a Barista made coffee, Little Baxter opens at 5am till 2pm to pick up that pre-flight coffee!
Other food and beverage offerings include;
- MOXY Kitchen for breakfast (6am–10am) and dinner (5pm–9pm)
- Bar Moxy for cocktails, craft beer and wine (11am–11pm)
- Moxy Pick Up, a 24/7 retail space offering snacks, drinks and travel essentials
Located just minutes from Sydney Airport, the hotel is positioned within Mascot, one of Sydney's fastest-evolving precincts. The area offers a growing selection of walkable dining options and a vibrant food and drink scene, giving guests a sense of being close to the action.
With its blend of thoughtful design, social energy and practical amenities, Moxy Sydney Airport continues to set a new standard for airport hotels—proving that the journey can be just as enjoyable as the destination.
