Hotel Equities (HE), a best-in-class hospitality operator, today announces it has been selected to operate the forthcoming dual-branded Moxy Vancouver Downtown and Element Vancouver Downtown. The 30-story tower is owned and developed by Paul Y. Construction (B.C.) Ltd. and is set to open in Summer 2028. Located in the heart of Vancouver’s entertainment district, the project will feature 280 guest rooms under the Moxy brand and 112 rooms under the Element by Westin brand, introducing two of Marriott’s most dynamic lifestyle brands to the city.
The Moxy and Element brands will cater to distinct but complementary guest segments: Moxy with its playful, experiential design and social atmosphere, and Element with its focus on longer-stay travelers seeking balance, sustainability, and well-being. Together, the hotels will enhance Vancouver’s thriving hospitality landscape and support the city’s continued growth as a global destination.
Hotel Equities is providing ownership with development advisory services throughout pre-development and construction, ensuring a seamless path to opening and long-term operational success. HE’s Canadian-based operations team will further provide dedicated resources to maximize performance and value creation across all phases of the hotel’s lifecycle.
With its central location near BC Place, Rogers Arena, Vancouver Convention Centre, and the city’s vibrant dining, arts, and shopping districts, the hotel is perfectly positioned to serve both leisure and business travelers. As the second Moxy hotel and third Element by Westin to join the portfolio, HE now operates seven hotels in British Columbia and thirty-three throughout
Canada, further strengthening its presence in the region.
