Consultations on a proposed Moxy Hotel in Newcastle

01 October 2020

Public consultations have opened on a proposed Moxy Hotel project based at Newcastle Helix.

The new hotel, which is being brought forward by international developer Vastint Hospitality, will feature 200 boutique hotel rooms and will be located immediately south of The Lumen office building.

The site will also feature café and bar uses, along with associated cycle parking.

Avison Young’s Newcastle office has been appointed to provide both project management and planning consultancy services.

Matt Verlander, planning and development director at Avison Young, said: "The scheme represents a further key component of Newcastle Helix on a prominent gateway site to the city.

"We are looking forward to sharing the proposals with the local community and listening to their views on the project."

The consultation window will close on 15 October, following which the project team will review the comments received. A planning application for the project is anticipated to be submitted to the council at the end of October.
