I really enjoyed the beds, welcome drink, and convenience at Moxy Houston. However, there's areas of needed improvement. The water coming out of the shower is scalding, the stash closet was locked, staff are a tad apathetic & checked-out, and the ATM & slushie machine were broken? That's quite a few problems. However, they're fixable. I think management needs to sit down and reevaluate, morale is low and it's showing. Currently, the hotel has a ALOT going for it. A trendy, cozy bar with a chill bartender, a beautiful mezzanine level perfect for lounging, and pristine rooms. My bathroom was especially gorgeous and roomy. Towels were consistently provided, as were other amenities like shampoo. The room's bed was comfy, pillows felt fluffy. I loved the amount of clothing hanger space provided. My only complaint about the room, is that it need an extra mini-table. I ended up placing my luggage bag on the nightstand! I'd definitely return to Houston's Moxy as I felt safe and comfortable. As a traveler in my 20s it's essential I feel good. Therefore I would still recommend this location! It's near a lot of good restaurants & bars too! A metro station is directly in front of the hotel, it's super accessible and convenient to stay here. If you're okay with loud music till midnight or so and a lively atmosphere, you'll enjoy! Moxy Houston has a DJ in the lobby on select nights! Note: YOU MUST check out the adorable cow at the entrance of the hotel. It's picture worthy! I loved the quirky decor of this hotel! read more

Stayed one night at Moxy hotel, located in the heart of downtown, Houston - Texas. It's about a 20 minute uber ride from the airport, a few blocks walking distance from the financial district - where you can spot the tallest building in Texas, close to theaters, pubs, coffee spots, and restaurants. Enjoyed the hotel room cleanliness, comfortable bed, nice bathroom with the most perfect shower head, nice street view, and cute little restaurant/pub in the hotel's lobby. Felt very restful and safe. The staff were friendly and helpful. And I appreciate the token I used for a complementary drink. Highly recommend staying at this chilled hotel when in Houston. read more

We stayed here for the Korean Fest at Discovery Park. About a 12 min walk. I will say I have stayed at a lot of hotels in my day, but the staff here was top notch from check-in to check-out. Super friendly, nice, courteous to everyone; I would 100% stay here again. read more

My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at the Moxy Houston Downtown. First, the service was phenomenal. The staff were extremely friendly as soon as we checked in. They answered all of our questions regarding parking and provided recommendations of places to go. Secondly, the location was perfect. It's in the heart of downtown Houston. You can walk to bars, stores, restaurants, parks, and trains. You basically do not need to drive or use ride share once you arrive. The rooms were clean and we had a great view of downtown. There is even a bar on the ground floor, which is convenient if you want to grab a drink within the hotel. The first floor also has TVs, a mechanical bull and a gift shop if it interests you. Overall, an amazing experience and we will definitely return here for our next trip to Houston. read more

Ok I wanna start with addressing negative comments I've read regarding noise. Folks, you have got to research hotel neighborhoods before booking! It's imperative. The hotel is located in the heart of a downtown entertainment section on Main Street. It's literally in the middle of 3-4 clubs which don't even open until 8-9 pm. That is where the loud music and noise comes from & not the hotel. How is the hotel to blame? Secondly, I've read reviews that are negative regarding the hotel lobby bar being loud and a party spot and not for kids. Again, research. With that said, we were in the bar & lounge area at different times. Times when folks were having a meal or drink, couples, groups, and families! Part of the lounge is like a living area with a tv and space for parents to chill with their kids. The small but roomy bar has several seating areas as well. The entire space is welcoming and cozy without being cramped. They do get crowds from the clubs next door but it's nothing crazy. Quite frankly, I don't know how anyone would hear noise from the hotel bar/restaurant over the thumping and pumping from before mentioned clubs. We were fully aware of what we were getting into when we booked. Guess what? It's really not that bad at all. Especially since the rooms come with sound machines and we used noise canceling AirPods if it got too loud (which it really didn't). This was on a weekend too. If you don't want to be surrounded by nightlife, due diligence is your friend. About the rest of the hotel- I'm a huge fan of the minimalist, boho chic hotel. I love that there aren't dressers and other furniture to clutter up the rooms. Tons of wall hooks work perfectly for hanging all clothing. I mean who really uses the dressers anyway? Lots of fun and cute little things in the room. For instance, if you want a bedtime story, just pick up the phone. Once you do you'll get a recorded story narrated by Chloe Fineman (such a huge fan)! Bed is super comfy with space for two people to stretch out. Extremely clean room & bathroom. Bathroom is subway tile with higher end shampoo, conditioner, body wash, etc. Hairdryer and steamer in room as well (perfect for a shirt I needed to de-wrinkle). Check-in is at the front of the bar as soon as you walk in and it's easy/breezy. Employees are super friendly and nice. We used our free drink tokens for mocktails and they were fab. I would 100% stay here again. read more

Room was decorated boutique style and reminiscent of NYC for us. The subway tile in the bathroom and the views certainly added to that vibe. Handy storage places also fun. The market portion was nice. The not so great... Blaring DJ left us no place to sit with our pizza. The next day we would find out there was a mezzanine. Wish we had some intro at check in. Welcome drink was terrible. They sold it as a liquor with tonic and strawberry puree, but actually no puree. More of a Truly with extra vodka. They showed food on Website, but nothing visible at hotel. The TV was loosely hanging on wall so my other half tightened that and the sink so we could use both. Room for improvement. read more

Stayed here for a week for dreamcon event and out of the 7 days 5 of them had water so hot it was unusable. When I went to the front desk they said it's been happening for a week already. Roaches were spotted in the room, aside from it being on a busy night life street, filled with homelessness it's a convenient stay at best with no comfort. read more

We recently stayed at the Moxy Hotel while I was traveling for work. My husband and our baby joined me on the trip, and I was initially a bit concerned about staying here since the hotel is smaller and I wasn't sure it would have the amenities needed when traveling with a baby. It also happened to be the only place available at the time. What truly made our stay five-stars was the staff. The rooms are small and it can be a little noisy, but the team more than made up for it with their kindness and willingness to help. I especially want to commend Jamesha, who went above and beyond during our stay. I was stressed trying to figure out how I would warm my baby's milk, and she immediately stepped in to help. She creatively used the Nespresso machine to provide warm milk for my baby. The rest of the staff was able to accommodate with the request following this idea. That small act of care meant so much. Being a working mom on the road can be stressful, and there are many things that feel out of your control. Jamesha showed genuine understanding and kindness, and it truly made a difference for our family. Because of her and the staff's hospitality, our stay turned into a wonderful experience. read more

I came to the grand opening of Moxy Houston Downtown! It is newly opened as of December 2023 and located in the historic building that used to be a bank. If you are familiar with the Moxy brand, you know they offer a boutique, fun, and unique experience. Moxy Houston Downtown has elements of Space City, bank themes, and if you look closely, hints of University of Houston and Rice University. Conveniently located in Downtown Houston on Main Street in front of a Metro Rail stop which is great if you want to utilize public transport for your stay! There are also plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance. The rooms utilize space in a fun and functional way. There is even a bunk option which is a playful choice for travel with kids or those youthful at heart. Now, even if you don't stay, they have a great bar with happy hour specials. read more

Stayed 2 nights here. Ok so, if you're looking for a 5star, this is NOT it.... BUT if you're looking for somewhere quick to stay and not expecting too much, here's your property. The rooms are clean and small but doable. There's no storage for clothes but they have hangers tabs on the wall lol. Warning... check-in is on the side of the bar. Check in was smooth. They provide you with a token for a free drink during your stay. Employees all were personable. Brian is funny, you'll enjoy him. Hotel location is perfect downtown. If/when I do another quick Houston trip, I'll visit again. read more

I wish I could give this place a zero. If you want to stay in a place that you wouldn't even stay in in college for community. I've had nothing but issues since I checked in here and now on my last night here I cannot sleep because the toilet above me keeps flushing every 40 seconds. I'm told by Marcus at the front desk. There's nothing he can do because he's the only one working here tonight. He suggested I wear earphones so I don't hear it. So don't forget to pack yours if you plan on staying at the Moxie. They have some moxie to even think that they can consider this a hotel. read more

Very welcoming place, dog friendly. Loved the atmosphere and the whole vibe. The only thing I did not like is that the rooms were small and there was no microwave or fridge. But there is a bar downstairs, which they give you free tokens for a drink and a restaurant next door and multiple other places to eat in the surrounding read more

Pictures are fake. This place is a joke. It's not a fun, lively atmosphere it's an empty place full of rude employees that hate their jobs. I was there on a Saturday night, it should have been exciting and busy. Completely opposite. Room was not clean either read more

Worse night sleep ever! This is NOT a hotel... it's a club/bar with beds! Music scream at full volume till 2am. Rattling the windows! Do NOT bring kids here... it literally turns into a night club around 9pm and is not appropriate to walk through the lobby with kids. Horrible towels, not soap to wash your hands with, no ice, no coffee in room, bathroom door wouldn't close, zero room for your luggage! Will Never be back!! read more

We stayed here 4 nights for a National cheer competition. Our stay was fine until the last night. We were told there were no towels available in the entire hotel and to wait til morning! The person he spoke to was bery rude about it! Are you kidding me? There were about a dozen of us staying here and nobody could get towels! Also the rooms are so small they feel like prison cells! There is no front desk. You check in at the bar! Not your usual hotel! Pretty weird for a Marriott! read more

Moxy is downtown Houston is close to lots of food options. The surrounding noise can be a challenge but that's the Moxy brand- a lil hip hop and certain flare. I had a smoke smelled room but the customer service is 5 star! Especially Gigi at the front. I saw this young lady make drinks, check guest in, prepare food, and provide the best customer service I've ever seen. You are extremely fortunate to have her! read more

The Moxy downtown Houston was everything that we needed. Room was on the smaller side but it was just me and my beautiful fiancée. Room was clean and shower is huge. It's in downtown so lots of walkable options. We were there for the World Baseball Classic and it was a 10 min walk to stadium. When you check in you get complimentary drink along with a big bowl of gold fish when you check in too that you can help yourself too. The staff were super nice, friendly, and helpful. Was a little nervous about the noise from what I was reading however didn't even hear any noise or music once. I'd say only downside is no microwave or fridge however if you are only staying for a night or 2 it's not a big deal at all. Overall I enjoyed my stay here at the Moxy and would book again. read more

Such a cute hipster hotel located in the heart of downtown Houston! I got in late on a Wednesday and the bartender was gracious enough to let me order a drink with a minute to spare. You're gifted a Moxy chip upon arrival for a free cocktail (restrictions apply). The rooms have sound machines and ear plugs to accommodate for the tram that runs downtown. It's also next to a club, like stumbling distance.... HA! They have little stash bins on each floor that has any toiletries you may have forgotten. This place has KILLER breakfast options, and a decent selection for coffee beverages. (THEY HAVE A ESPRESSO MACHINE) Only reason they're getting docked a star is because the morning manager? (the male with glasses) was A LOT to handle so early in the morning... *I'll take one of whatever he has before each shift! read more

Everything was great until we realized (after we left the state on our way home) that the valet staff WRECKED our truck and didn't tell us anything about it! We took a sharp turn and heard the tire rubbing really hard on something, got our and see the front bumper pushed completely in by the tire headlight pushed in, and a small hole in the body above it. Called the hotel and they said they needed to get with the head of valet and they would call us back. Six hours now and nothing yet! Furious is an understatement! read more

Moxy was very chique and had a cool vibe. The hotel is located in the middle of several great bars and restaurants. Brandon was very helpful in recommending spots to check out. The only real complaint I have is the nightclub next door blares music til about 2-2:30am. We were on the 7th floor but could feel the base and hear every single word to the songs. There was also construction taking place out front and we got woke up by jackhammers each morning at 7am. Noise was the biggest issue but the service and hotel room itself was great. Valet was also very accommodating and not an issue. I would stay here again, but request a room away from all the noise. We took the metro right out front to NRG too and it was extremely convenient! read more

Parking absolutely sucks Hugely expensive extremely slow and not very reliable Rooms very tiny Thursday through Sunday a DJ is playing next door till 1100 PM so loud you can't hear yourself think. NOT FOR THE BUSINESS TRAVELERS read more

The picture of this hotel is absolutely beautiful and the cost was a bit high so I thought it would be a larger sleeping area but I was wrong. First of all while in Houston finding a place to park was incredibly daunting! We got in front of the hotel and asked where to park and the gentleman said that he was valet so that was great but then someone comes out with the very high valet prices but I had already jumped out of the car sand committed myself and our car to be parked by these very expensive valets. So getting past that we continue to "check in", very tacky sign by the way for this beautiful establishment, and this gentleman checked us in and we were given 2 poker chips good for 2 drinks, nice touch. We went upstairs to our room and when we walked in I was surprised at how nice the bathroom looked and then reality, the room was ridiculously small , no fridge, no closet, no ice, no space. If you don't care about where you sleep then you're good. My bed didn't even have a fitted sheet on it was a top sheet tucked under mattress. But you see I care about the size of my room, if you don't care then you would love it! There was a steamer, that was a pleasant surprise. All in all the service was nice but I probably won't go back. The lobby was absolutely beautiful read more

Love this hotel. The lobby has great bar and the music they play is a vibe! Fri-Sun there is a loud bar next-door that plays until 11 PM. I called the front desk and they immediately moved me to a quieter room. The location is perfect. I'll definitely stay again. read more

Although the decor is modern, i did not enjoy my stay at Moxy. My room had no windows, i felt very claustrophobic. There was no pool, no room service, very old and small hotel. Many homeless people around the property, no parking. They stay was almost 600 dollars for 2 nights, I will not be back. read more

Disorganized front staff, they tried to charge me twice while I told them several times that my company had already prepaid everything prior to the stay. Staff is also dressed unprofessionally. Location is ok. The hotel is facing a busy street and right down the hotel is a tramway stop. Since the soundproofing is terrible, you'll hear everything as if you were outside. Definitely don't recommend staying there. read more

bad customer service rude Mexican and rude black guy in the counter. at night full of home less people looks like a shelter outside parking is a hassle valet is slow and has you wait 30 minutes for car do not recommend to no one please save the night and go somewhere else where read more

NOISE! NOISE! and more NOISE! As a Bonvoy lifetime Titanium member, I was extremely disappointed. The place has a trendy new cool vibe. Customer service was good. BUT the noise level is over the top and they know it. They provide ear plugs bedside, a white noise machine to help drown out all the outside nightclubs noise, right below the rooms. The rooms are tiny, and the windows are not noise reducing quality. The nite life last past 1am, so don't plan a quality night's sleep. If you're a Marriott lover recommend staying down the street elsewhere read more

Super nice hotel! Had a great experience. Super nice rooms and cute bar and everything. We forgot an item after our check out and we were from San Antonio the front desk was super helpful with finding it to get it to shipped to us. We had to create the shipping label ourselves and email it to them (which wasn't a problem at all) but Nina was nice enough to drop the package off to get shipped to us! 5 stars all the way and would stay here again! read more

Horrible hotel. Stayed on the third floor and heard music from the lobby until 2:00 am on both nights. After checking out saw two charges on my bill for same stay. Was told by management that it showed two reservations. I advised them I only stayed in one room but the hotel refused to give back my money for a room I did mot stay in. Waiting on corporate to make a decision. read more

Juan and Nina took very good care of me and my family. I love this place just on the fact that I know they're approachable enough to come and ask for assistance. Also I can't forget about the people in the front who help us parking our vehicle and getting our stuff out of the vehicle read more
