ATLANTA & DALLAS–Peachtree Group (“Peachtree”) celebrated the groundbreaking of a new 19-story, dual-branded hotel development featuring the award-winning Marriott brands, AC Hotel and Moxy Hotel, in the heart of Uptown Dallas. The development will bring 264 upscale rooms, modern amenities and unique lifestyle offerings to the bustling McKinney Avenue corridor. The much-anticipated project promises to elevate the city’s hospitality scene and is expected to open in Summer 2026.
The property will offer an unmatched 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 market.
“Most hotels in Uptown cater to the upper-upscale and luxury segments, leaving the submarket lacking in upscale hotel options to meet the needs of a substantial portion of Uptown’s demand,” said Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO of Peachtree. “Uptown represents one of the highest income and most desirable submarkets within the Dallas market. The dual-branded hotel will be situated in a premier location within the neighborhood, half a block from much of the area’s restaurants, bars and entertainment and easily accessible to numerous corporate demand drivers.”
With its modern design, state-of-the-art amenities and prime location in Uptown Dallas, the hotels are set to become a preferred destination for both business and leisure travelers. Positioned against the vibrant Dallas urban landscape, this dual-branded development will redefine upscale hotel accommodations, attracting visitors and fostering community engagement.
The signature Moxy Bar and Restaurant will greet guests at street level, setting the tone for a fun and energetic atmosphere. An exclusive highlight of the property will be the custom-branded bar and lounge located on the 8th floor, to feature an elevated amenity deck with an outdoor terrace, water features and breathtaking views of Dallas.
“The elevated amenity deck and custom-branded bar will create a unique destination within Uptown Dallas, driving demand from both hotel guests and locals alike,” Friedman said. “This dual-branded property is designed to offer a dynamic experience that will stand out in the city’s competitive hospitality market.”
Further enhancing the guest experience, the property will include a state-of-the-art fitness center, perfect for active travelers. The property also will boast a 261-stall onsite parking garage, conveniently accommodating hotel guests and visitors to McKinney Avenue’s nearby restaurants and nightlife venues.
