Moliving is the world’s first nomadic hospitality solution. Moliving’s hotels can pop up anytime and anywhere, providing a true luxury experience to its guests with minimal impact to the environment. Being at the forefront of eco-responsibility, Moliving is the first hotel group to have created its own proprietary mobile rooms that are designed with Sustainability, Durability, Modularity and Luxury in mind. They are built to be fully self-sufficient with the use of solar power, gray water recycling technology and integrated holding tanks. They can alternately be installed on the grid in a matter of minutes. Moliving Hotels utilizes their mobile inventory to void seasonal downfalls: during high seasons hotels operate normally but during the low seasons, Moliving reduces its inventory (moves to another site in demand) to avoid unnecessary operational costs. A Moliving Hotel always operates at a peak occupancy.
Moliving is democratizing the hospitality industry by functioning as a joint venture partner to landowners. Landowners provide the land and some minor permanent infrastructure and in turn, Moliving provides the whole operations as well as the mobile hotel inventory. Moliving hotels can be constructed in months versus years, at a fraction of the cost of traditional hotels.
- If you are providing written answers for your submission, you must provide an answer to this second question: Outline the organization's achievements since the beginning of 2020 that you wish to bring to the judges' attention (up to 250 words):

Moliving was launched in July 2021. Moliving’s team has been working tirelessly to revolutionize and democratize hotel development and the hospitality experience. In 2020 we signed our first JV with a prestigious Luxembourg based family office: Arizona Investissements that has acquired the perfect piece of land for Moliving’s flagship, Moliving at Hurley House.
In July 2021 we officially unveiled the first Moliving prototype: the world’s first truly mobile and sustainable 5-star hotel room. At Moliving, our goal is to protect the environment by implementing sustainable alternatives to harmful practices. Our rooms are built out of Green Steel and various other recycled materials. They are designed and built-in house in local factories to minimize our carbon footprint. But most importantly, our units are truly “green” and have the possibility to be operated in a fully self-sufficient manner. Moliving units provide a true luxury experience with minimal impact to the environment.
Today, we are well on the way to achieving our goal of democratizing the hospitality space:
- In making developments more accessible
- Allowing our guests to discover our planet in a unique, sophisticated, and sustainable manner.
Since launching in 2020, Moliving has garnered significant media attention in various top-tier publications including The New York Times, Robb Report, Forbes, Elite Traveler, Dezeen, Dwell, The Real Deal, Wallpaper*, Time Out, Business Insider and many more.
- If you are providing written answers for your submission, you must provide an answer to this third question: Explain why the achievements you have highlighted are unique or significant. If possible compare the achievements to the performance of other players in your industry and/or to the organization's past performance (up to 250 words):

Moliving is uniquely positioned between the glamping and luxury spaces, and to this day, no one has managed to provide an upscale product and experience while proving true flexibility and a sustainable result. The Moliving units are not only mobile, but also feature a system that protects the land by allowing them to be removed with no impact or damage to the ground below. Moliving helps developers and landowners create more profitable hotels as well. This is what truly sets Moliving apart.
By focusing on seasonal and traditionally hard to develop markets, Moliving offers future hoteliers and landowners the opportunity to build hotels in months versus years, at a fraction of the cost of a traditional hotel. With mobility in mind, Moliving can predict seasonal demand and adjust room inventory to match demand in real time. Moliving is the first hotel group that can efficiently achieve and maintain peak occupancy and ADRs on a year-round basis.
