Marriott International is stepping up Asia expansion of its Moxy brand with two hotels in Japan.
Moxy Tokyo Kinshicho and Moxy Osaka Honmachi are due to open in late 2017.
Moxy Tokyo has an industrial design featuring 205 rooms located in the historic district of Kinshicho.
Moxy Osaka Honmachi has 155 high tech rooms and like the Tokyo hotel, is an office building conversion.
"The next generation of travellers craves adventure, and until now affordable hotel options lacked personality and verve," said Mike Fulkerson, vice president, brand and marketing, Marriott International Asia Pacific.
"We are excited to introduce Asia to the Moxy brand, which offers a vibrant and fun hotel experience at a great price."
The Moxy brand makes its Asia debut in Bandung in the third quarter of 2017.
The Moxy brand made its global debut in Milan in 2014 and currently consists of nine hotel operating in the US, Germany, Austria and the UK.
Moxy brand amenities include social spaces such as high-energy lounges, and 24/7 self-service grab-and-go food and drinks.
