Friendly and helpful young staff although they seemed short-staffed. Check-in is at the bar so they were busy with checking in guests and taking food and drinks orders. My room had a comfortable big bed, bathroom was clean and modern, the shower floor was quite slippery. Nice hair dryer available. I had a large suitcase and had to improvise with a footstool and a small folding luggage rack to open it. There were 4 clothes hangers but had I wanted more I'm sure they would have given me some had I asked. I mention these things because if you are looking for a closet and bureau to unpack your clothes there's none. However, the room was large and comfortable, it was quiet, Wi-Fi was easily accessible, television had a few channels but I wasn't there to watch TV. LED motion-activated lights came on under the bed. Breakfast was good with warm options, breads and sweet rolls, croissants, cold cuts and cheeses, jams, small pancakes and waffles, toppings, and coffee machines. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would stay again.

It's crucial to know what the Moxy is, and what it isn't. If you want a standard front-desk/concierge experience, with a lobby and porters, keep looking. If you want a dresser to store your clothes in, keep looking. If you want a room service menu and service, keep looking. If you want a bathtub, keep looking. If you want a mini-fridge or microwave in your room, keep looking. If you want a coffeemaker, keep looking. (There is a water cooker and instant coffee, however.) If you want a staffed restaurant, keep looking. If you want a pool, keep looking. However, if you want a hassle-free stay in a small, clean room with very little storage but also with a nice shower, plenty of linens, and super convenient for taxi, bus, walking, and Uber availability - this is a great choice. The staff are mostly what this Boomer would call kids. But these "kids" are efficient, friendly, and willing to go the extra mile. My stay was fantastic, and if I'm in the city again, I'll likely choose the Moxy.

The place is super clean and tidy. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Very close to POI like The Royal Mile. Easy access to buses. Downside is the parking. Tip for travellers checking in @ Moxy, drop your things off first to the hotel then go park at their designated car park. It’s about 10 mins walk.

I was excited about this hotel, but it was a huge disappointment. It’s all style with little substance. The breakfast buffet was overcrowded every morning, with items missing daily—plates, cutlery, bread, milk, and juice. Saturday was a disaster, with people sitting all over the dining and reception areas. The single juice machine and two coffee machines caused constant queues, and the food, when stocked, was just okay. The water for tea was lukewarm on two mornings, which is unacceptable. The rooms look good in photos but are poorly designed. There’s no space to store clothes or luggage—just an open rail. The bathrooms are tiny and impractical, with no place to hang wet towels. Room turndown service was the worst we’ve encountered. One day, it wasn’t done by 3 pm, and we had to ask the receptionist to ensure it was done when we went out. The next day, the room still wasn’t ready by 4 pm, and we got a knock at 6 pm—way too late. This hotel is a titanic fail. It’s designed for style, not practicality, and simply isn’t equipped for the number of guests. Save yourself the frustration and book somewhere else.
