Moxy Houston Downtown

We chose this place out of a lot of different options. To sum it up, it was pretty noisy but they have white noise machines that mostly help, but not everything- like the trolley horns. The room was very clean but very small if you're getting a room with only a queen bed. We received a welcome drink at check in which was pretty unique and cool. The service made the whole experience a lot better; they even refrigerated our leftovers since we didn't have a fridge in our room!The third-party Valet service is another thing though. We had a reservation at 6pm at a steakhouse nearby, so we texted the number to have them get our car. We proceeded to walk down shortly after and stand next to them waiting for our car. About 15 minutes ago by and still nothing, so I went up to them and asked what was going on and they hadn't even received our text, making us late to our dinner reservation. I would be more upset if I had to pay to move my reservation or if it was a weekend and they had no other times available, but that did not happen thankfully. What I am upset about is that it was $50 for this valet service, to which I'm hoping to get a refund or discount for. Anyways, it was a nice stay, I just wish circumstances had gone better with the valet.

I chose this hotel because the amenities include "free 24-hour offsite parking". However, this is not true.

The parking is awful and cost about 50 a day with in and out privileges

The place itself was great. Nice little bar inside and has snacks and coffee. Walking distance to so many place to eat and drink. The down side was construction in the front and valet parking is $50. There is a parking lot across the street to use that you can pay for 12 hours at a time for $16. Not bad during the day but may wanna avoid in the late evening. We had no issues with it though.

Good hotel. Good location. Only issue is construction going on in the area making it a bit difficult to find and access hotel parking services.

Love the lobby/bar area. Room very clean. There is music in bar area that we could hear faintly on 11th floor room, but didn’t bother us

Love this property! Comfortable rooms with lots of amentities (free drink at the bar for each adult), great service, and a great location. Plus it's got lots of character which make for a very memorable experience. Within walking distance of lots of bars and restaurants. We live in the Houston suburbs but have made a habit of staying Downtown from time to time to have some fun and this is one of our favorite places to stay. I will say that Main Street is undergoing some improvements in advance of the 2026 World Cup...so the street it's on is under lots of construction as of Fall 2025 (and probably will be for several months). We noticed this during our recent stay in late August. It wasn't an issue during past stays. If you go while there's lots of construction, it's still a great hotel and it's still close to everything...it's just that Main St. is a work in progress and take that into consideration (and make plans to come back again).

The location was great for the Rodeo. The building was unique and beautiful. There is no self parking just valet $55.

Property was in the middle of downtown with all the restaurants and clubs, location was very convenient. Parking sucked…55$/night to park. The rooms were clean and the bar downstairs was nice.

Well first of all there was construction going on right in front of our hotel so when we got there I couldn’t park in the front and unload. I had to park across a parking lot just to get down and check in. Once checked in we did the parking garage which is around the block.Total for the entire weekend spent $65. There is some discount code/QR that the hotel uses for parking garage but they told us about this too late. We had to walk with all our luggage back to hotel. This was a huge inconvenience.I booked a city view room and they gave us 2nd floor, not over looking the entire city. We had the pleasure of hearing the metro bus and all the club music and noise all night till 2am. So we didn’t get a good nights rest at all. I will say the hotel is beautiful, the bar area and hangout is nice. They have cool areas to take photos, have a drink, and play board games. We attended the Astros game and we walked it, a good 12-13min walk. If you’re looking for party vibes this is definitely the hotel to stay at. It doesn’t have all the amenities in the room like fridge or microwave, we took our own ice chest and went downstairs by bar to heat our food up. Not sure if they sell food or not but they didn’t tell us about that, when we would call the front office no one would answer. We had to walk downstairs to get extra toilet paper and trash bag to clean the room. They also didn’t allow a late check out, only needed till noon. They said no need to be a Marriott member.

I loved how convient it was to downtown. because we were very close to all of the activites and resturants that I wanted to explore. So overall the stay was great, but when we arrived there were ants all over the sinks in the kicthen and bathroom, they were there upon arrival, but they were not a hassle may just need a exterminator to eliminate the problem in the future.

Staff was excellent, and everything was so pretty and most importantly clean.

Cleanliness needs to be worked on.

The place was very cool, trendy. Exactly what we needed to walk to the music hall for a concert. Unfortunately, the Male staff was a little salty. Seemed inconvenienced by making coffee or asking questions about the area. Otherwise it was a great day would’ve preferred a mini fridge in the room and a coffee maker Wanted to give this place a 5out of 5 but the customer service could’ve been better. Also found some hairs in the bottom of the shower that weren’t mine on arrival.

The room was pretty dirty and very worn down

Easy check in with friendly staff. Large room was very comfortable and clean. Lounge areas in main floor and 2nd floor very nice. Only a 10 minute walk to all the cultural centers, theatre district and the aquarium. I recommend the express coach bus from the airport.

The room needed a good sweeping when we got there. The toilet seat was loose, the door wouldn’t lock, and the walls are extremely thin. You can hear everything in the hallway and if you happen to have an adjoining room, you can hear every word your neighbors are saying. I woke up every time someone closed their hotel door despite playing white noise. There was some party at the bar next door that was incredibly loud late into the night. The staff were nice and it’s within walking distance of a lot of things. Check in and out was fast and easy. It’s a nice hotel if you’re in your younger twenties, but I wouldn’t stay here again because I need sleep.

Very clean and staff was attentive

Great location nice restaurant and lobby, clean rooms

I like how attentive the housekeeping staff are to the details in the room. The room was really clean. The walls at the property are very thin, I could hear the entire conversations of the guests in the room next to me. There was also someone jumping all night in the room above me. The music from the club is actually a cool vibe. The primary con is the rude front desk staff & the gaslighting that contributes to their rudeness.

Room was kinda small for the price compared to other hotels but the location if you are wanting to go to bars on main st the location is perfect. I did get charged $10 2 days after my stay and I don’t know for what. Water bottle in the room

The hotel is nice and the check-in was fantastic. Chic spot in the heart of downtown, but little did I realize, that also means there will be loud music playing through 3am. The walls at this hotel are paper thin so you heard everything happening in the rooms around you.

The bed was very uncomfortable

Night club next to property. Very loud. Very thin walls.

The stay was nice but it definitely wasn’t quiet. We heard the tram horns all night long and the walls are thin so we heard others tvs. Great location, couldn’t get any better, nice lounge area, VERY tiny room, bathroom was oddly laid out but amazing shower.

The hotel itself was alright. However, I was placed in one of the rooms facing out toward the train and in the evenings that’s all I could hear, along with people walking on the street yelling. I had to sleep every night with my noise canceling headphones. Not sure if it was just my timeline specifically but the bar/restaurant next door plays incredibly loud music on the weekends. And the music didn’t stop until after 11pm even on a Sunday. Normally that wouldn’t bother me aside from I was on a work trip and needed to sleep. But, staff was alright and the room was average.

Construction around the hotel made it very difficult to access and no on site parking is available. It is also very loud all night due to its proximity to the downtown bars. The room itself was decent and did its job.

Good things: Staff was wonderful. Kind, attentive and efficient. The king size bed was wonderful; very comfortable! The A/C was the quietest I have ever had. There were blackout shades on both windows! The stand up shower had good water pressure and the water was hot. Ok things: The rooms are small, but appointed w/ the necessities. My room was clean and had all i needed. The bathroom had a nightlight that was a rather bright (LED) and shown directly on the left side of the bed. Had to close the bathroom door which may not be the best for some guests. There was no place/stand to put your luggage on; so bed or floor. The bathroom doesn't have much counter space. The not great: The windows are older and the area has a lot of clubs, lots of music can be heard until late. (bring ear plugs and its all good) Lastly, I had a room w/ an adjoining door to another room. I could hear EVERYthing, the normal voice convos, TV, bathroom visits, other. (again ear plugs) Also, since there was no bottom door seal, any odor (like smoke) created on that side of door permeated my room. To each their own but this could be dangerous/cause problems for others.

front desk staff not available at checkin. Turns out they were busy in the back watching tiktok rather than in the front. During checkout had to wait 10 minutes for someone to show up to check us out and settle account. I walked around looking for staff, no-one was around. Room needed TLC

Do not stay here if you are into nice staff, valet that works, parking overall. Don't get me wrong, it’s a cool hotel the rooms with the city view are cool. I’ve stayed in hotels all over the country. I would never stay here again. It’s a very cool idea. Close to a ton of bars so maybe that’s the whole point. But as an avid trip taker this hotel was over rated. Bed was comfy tho. AC worked great. If I had known when I booked it where it was and what it was around I wouldn’t have wasted my time. But yeah staff overall very low iq to cool for school and just cocky. That was the worst part of this place.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My stay was wonderful! The hotel was beautiful and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Everything about the experience made me feel welcome and comfortable. I would definitely book here again and highly recommend it to others

Brian was awesome, friendly and funny. He suggested restaurants and places to check them out during my stay in Houston. It was so generous of him to bring me Texas Pecan Coffee, that i was actually asking him about where could i get it early in the day (He made my day ^_^). Perfect location, as it is in the middle of everything. Would definitely stay here when i come to visit Houston again. P.S. Brian make the best signature Latte in Houston City that y'll should try it out.

We couldn't have asked for any better of a stay. Mu wife attended a conference and I worked from the comfort of the mezzanine. Brian was AWESOME. There's nothing better than an entertaining and enthusiastic guy to greet you at the front desk. We tried two of his dining recommendations and a really cool art show and all was on point!

Our stay was great other than our vehicle being damaged between the time it was taken and brought back by the valet. Very cool hotel and friendly staff. Didn't notice the damage until we got on the road back home and heard the right front tire rubbing during a sharp turn. Stopped to look and it was very obviously wrecked. Bumper dented in, headlight pushed in, and small area of body damage. Called and was told they would have to get with the head of valet. It's been two hours and still no call. Btw, we live out of state so going back will be very difficult to do. Trying to add photos but unable for some reason.

Reading the reviews before our stay, we worried about noise. But, there was nothing to worry about. The Moxy is in a fun downtown neighborhood. The Metro rail runs in front of the hotel, and lots of fun bars & restaurants nearby. The only glitch we had, was the elevator broke bc 11 huge guys overloaded it. Idiots. But the manager, Brandon, was terrific. We hung out in the Lobby Bar & had a great time. All the staff were super friendly, the rooms were extremely clean, and check in/out were easy. Would definitely stay here again.

The Staff was elite… From the morning front desk clerks to the night was on the money with assistance. Was able to point me in the right direction when I needed and was straight forward with anything they couldn’t help me with but didn’t hesitate to help me figure things out. First time in Houston and I must say I’d love to stay again when I come back. Location was also right in the middle of all the adult fun!!! CLUBS, BARS and RESTAURANTS!!!! Transportation Only a few steps away to wherever you need to go if you don’t want to do Uber or Lyft… Highly Recommended…

I was told that late check out is only offered certified customers, never heard of that before at a hotel, toilet was clogged up and did not work had to go to the basement to use the bathroom

This hotel is a club. At 3:30am the walls were still shaking and the music could be heard word for word from the 7th floor. I called Expedia whose representative called the front desk. The hotel manager laughed and said “Well this is the Moxy” then hung up on us. Now, I have stayed at the Moxy in Nashville, NYC and NOLA. We love a great vibe and bar. Especially on a weekend out. THIS WAS NOT THAT! This was in bearable still at almost 4am. Their biggest argument was that there was a noise cancellation device in the room and would offer ear plugs. The noise cancellation device couldn’t be heard over the vibrating of the bass from the DJ below. Will never ever stay at this location again. Now onto Expedia customer support. I stayed on the phone with a manager for 1 hour and 45 minutes before I was finally issued a credit. I travel monthly for pleasure and have only ever called one other time years ago. I believe customer loyalty should be considered when issuing valid credits especially considering the manager was having to almost yell just so I could hear him over the music blaring through the paper thin walls and windows. Horrible all around except for the bartenders.

We came here to go see an Astros game. Great location, excellent room and staff, loud outside in downtown Houston on a Friday night.

Enjoyed my stay at Moxy. I would stay again. It can be a little noisey around the weekends due to the proximity to night life. Great walkable location for MBL and NBA games. My only complaint was the blackout blind would only lower to half way. Thankfully i was so exhausted each day from exploring i could still sleep.

Obviously in a very busy nightlife area, however was very quiet on a Friday night when we checked in which was good. Close to the Downtown Houston Aquarium and a place called the POST Houston, which was in walking distance. Staff was really friendly, checkin was a bar but in a cute way, and gave us drink tokens.

Love the fact it’s right in the entertainment part of downtown

I booked this hotel due to proximity to Minute Maid Park. Boy was that a mistake. We ended up leaving at 1 in the morning due to unrelenting yelling, profanity, blaring music and overall unsafe feeling. The homeless population heckeling my daughter and I walking to and from the hotel was also a real treat.

Great staff, super easy to use valet and was super quick to check in. Was our first time in Houston, there are a lot of clubs and bars next to the Hotel and we could hear all the music thru all the walls all night. Lots of homeless people around as well. Some of them were kind of aggressive. Area outside of the property also smelled like piss. 4/5 because the factors that were in control by the property were pretty good its just the things out of their control that make it kind of sketchy.

Very nice location! Perfect for anyone who looking for things to do within a close proximity to the hotel. Restaurants and lounges all within walking distance.

Nice location in the city, close to the baseball stadium.

The hotel itself was great and the location was convenient. The beds are not comfortable and the rooms are rather small. However the smell of urine reaps the area due to the huge presence of homeless people walking and sleeping on the sidewalks. I wish there were more options close by to eat. The nightlife on the strip is awesome just needs more happy hour times. Overall I enjoyed the stay.

Cute, renovated, historic hotel. Check in was as the bar. They give you complimentary drinks when you check in. The down stairs is a bar with a Dj, board games and a bull. I can imagine if you’re on the lower levels the noise can be a problem.

Location was great; service was great. The main drawbacks are no ice bucket in room and no room coffee service. Even in lobby there was no complimentary coffee available. These aren’t huge problems, but noticeable. I was able to get ice at lobby desk, but why bother staff for something so routine?

The lady who greeted us was kind and welcoming. She had 10/10 customer service. The free cocktail was a plus.

The check in area was an also a bar! A total plus to start my vacay! We also got a free drink token just to check in!! Awesome place with awesome service!

What a cool place! It has smaller rooms but nice showers and great beds...and Happy Hour!

Extremely small rooms. No in room coffee Nor refrigerator. Noisy train station outside. Had to use the white Noise machine (which they did have In there) to sleep. Staff and lobby over the top excellent

Love the lobby/bar area. Room very clean. There is music in bar area that we could hear faintly on 11th floor room, but didn’t bother us

Very nice bar. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful.

Great stay! Atmosphere is beautiful. They give you welcome drink when you check in as well
