Choice Hotels vs Moxy Hotels Franchise Comparison

A group of Southern motel owners got together in 1939 to discuss the state of the lodging industry, hoping to do something to change the negative opinion the public had about motels (FBI director J. Edgar Hoover had warned that motels were used as bases of operations by gangsters). owners set about to create a set of quality standards for motels and agreed to publish the names of establishments that complied with these standards. In 1940, the group officially named itself Quality Courts United Inc. In 1990, Quality became known as Choice Hotels International Inc. The hotels in the chain now include Sleep, Comfort, Quality, Clarion, Rodeway, Econo Lodge and Cambria.

Moxy Hotels, Marriott International’s newest and most anxious affordable brand, serves as a playground that attracts Fun Hunter travelers. With a highly competitive market for hotels in much of the United States and Canada, Moxy Hotels gives owners and franchisees a new pick of the litter to compete in the upper, midscale priced tier in prime urban locations.

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a newly-constructed prototypical Moxy Hotel, excluding the cost of real estate and related costs (building permit, tap, and impact fees), ranges from $10,309,910 to $25,544,600 for a 100 to 150-room Moxy Hotel and from $15,162,110 to  31,230,300 for a 151 to 200-room Moxy Hotel, plus from 100,000 to 200,000 Euros to be paid to a third-party not related to us. This includes approximately $161,000 to $280,590 that must be paid to the franchisor or an affiliate.
