A new 19-story, dual-branded hotel development featuring Marriott brands AC Hotel and Moxy Hotel is expected to open in summer 2026 in the heart of Uptown Dallas. The Peachtree Group project will bring 264 upscale hotel rooms; modern amenities; and unique food, beverage and retail venues to the bustling McKinney Avenue corridor. The much-anticipated project promises to elevate the city’s hospitality scene.

When completed, the dual-branded property will offer a blend of comfort, style and convenience, featuring 110 rooms for the AC Hotel and 154 rooms for the Moxy Hotel, providing guests with distinct yet complementary experiences that will be positioned competitively with the premium hotels in the Uptown district.

“Most hotels in Uptown cater to the upper-upscale and luxury segments, leaving many leisure and business visitors to this area of Dallas lacking in upscale hotel options,” said Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO, Peachtree Group. “Uptown represents one of the highest incomes and most desirable submarkets within the Dallas market. This dual-branded project will be situated in a premier location within the neighborhood, half a block from much of the area’s restaurants, bars and entertainment.”

The signature Moxy Bar and Restaurant will be on street level, setting the tone for a fun and energetic ambiance. A highlight of the property will be the custom-branded bar and lounge located on the eighth floor, which will feature an elevated amenity deck with an outdoor terrace, water features and great views of Dallas.

“These two Moxy spaces will create a unique destination within Uptown Dallas, attracting attention from both hotel guests and locals,” added Friedman.

Further enhancing the guest experience at this dual-branded property will be a state-of-the-art fitness center and a 261-stall on-site parking garage. Both brands will offer an unmatched blend of comfort, style and convenience.

As Dallas’ most walkable live-work-play community, Uptown boasts a host of new apartments, trendy bars, hot restaurants and much of the best shopping in town. Singles in their 20s often dominate the social scene along McKinney Avenue, but it is mostly professionals older than the age of 30 who have settled into the townhomes along the tree-lined roads farther north, closer to Knox Street.

Hotel Van Zandt Review

One step onto Austin’s Rainey Street and you’ll feel like you’ve joined the cool kids at the best playground in the city. Just behind the cottage bars, pint-sized skyscrapers soar. One of them, Hotel Van Zandt, the Rainey district's pièce de resistance, beckons with a song-like spirit —apropos because the independently owned property, rife with music motifs, was named after beloved singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt. Sixteen stories high, the hotel embodies Austin’s lust for music, manifesting with a vinyl corner; trumpet chandeliers; myriad musical references; replica vintage posters in frames; and its own live music venue, which doubles as its acclaimed restaurant, Geraldine’s. Don’t miss the mesmerizing installation of colorful origami-like birds composed from vinyl records that flitter from an old phonograph.
