Condé Nast Traveler's 2025 Readers' Choice Awards Celebrate the World's Best in Hospitality, With Moxy NYC Hotels Placing Four Hotels in the Top 25

NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Condé Nast Traveler today announced the results of its annual Readers' Choice Awards, with Lightstone's Moxy Williamsburg, Moxy Lower East Side, Moxy Chelsea, and Moxy East Village named among Top Hotels in New York City – making Moxy the most awarded brand on the list. This marks the fifth consecutive year that Lightstone's Moxy Hotels have been recognized.

Condé Nast Traveler received more than 757,000 survey responses from readers across the United States rating their travel experiences across the globe to offer a comprehensive look at the places they eagerly anticipate revisiting. The Readers' Choice Awards, with their unparalleled legacy as the travel industry's longest-running and most prestigious accolades from our readers, remain the ultimate symbol and acknowledgment of excellence within the travel sector. The full list of winners can be found here.

"We are thrilled to have four of our Moxy Hotels awarded among New York City's top hotels," shared Mitchell Hochberg, President of Lightstone. "Through these properties, we have reimagined the traditional hospitality model to reflect the needs of today's travelers– style, comfort, and genuine hospitality at an affordable price."

Lightstone's Moxy Hotels act as hubs of their respective neighborhoods for guests and locals alike, collectively offering elevated and unique programming; socially activated, versatile public spaces (inclusive of meeting and event spaces); cleverly designed rooms; and multiple restaurant and bar options from leading food and beverage groups like TAO and Bar Lab Hospitality. Moxy Chelsea reimagines the urban jungle, blending botanically-inspired design with Italian romance – the Flower District's new secret garden. Moxy East Village connects to the neighborhood where rock 'n' roll, renegade art, LGBTQ+ activism, and generations of immigrants all merged to give birth to American counterculture. Moxy Lower East Side integrates with the neighborhood's history as a crossroads of entertainment and culture, and was rated by Rolling Stone as the top hotel for Music Fans in the country. Most recent to the portfolio is Moxy Williamsburg, a community hub whose easygoing spirit fits seamlessly into its trendsetting neighborhood, offering pickleball, a unique event space, and epic NYC views.

The 2025 Readers' Choice Awards are published on Condé Nast Traveler's website at www.Cntraveler.com/rca and celebrated in the November issue.
