    Staff is really nice and in the lobby you can work and relax in a cozy and comfortable space. But all the good is left downstairs… I’m wondering if the architects who designed the rooms have ever tried to stay in for real. The only available table in the room is so ridiculously small that you almost have to leave your computer and all your stuff on the floor. The night table (a block of glass) will hit your head during the night as its so close to the bed is almost on your pillow. (Yes, you can move the bed and then be so close to the other person on the other twin bed that you will have a king size, very nice when sharing a room with a colleague……………) Let’s talk about the funny idea of not having any closet and just 3 hangers… once you hang your coats you can fight for the third one or leave your tailleur in the suitcase (it will be so perfect for your meeting in the following day…) I’m really disappointed, sleeping in this hotel really made my business trip harder.

    My wife and I stayed here in June for the first five days of a 10 day trip to Ireland. Yes the rooms are small. Yes there's no desk. It's a bed, a TV, a bathroom, and a wire cage to hang clothes up. That said, it's explicitly advertised as such; the work and business area is oriented to the lobby. That's what a boutique hotel is. When you think about it, if you're on vacation, you're only in the room to shower and sleep, not spend all your time. The room worked just fine for us. The room was clean, the TV worked, the bed was comfortable, the hotel staff were polite, friendly, and helpful, and the bathroom had a functioning shower and toilet. The only thing that kept me from giving it 4-5 stars, was it was very pricey, close to $300 a night. Given that they didn't provide breakfast, and the area was a bit sketchy at night, I thought the price could have been lower.

    Having stayed at this hotel twice now, I feel like I can give a balanced review. For me, this is a solidly 3 star hotel. Firstly, the positives: - location is pretty good, within walking distance from most of the city centre. I will caveat this by saying that the area can feel somewhat unsafe when it's dark. The hotel is located down quite a dark lane. - Modern hotel and rooms, rooms are new and modern and have air conditioning (although it doesn't work particularly well, which is surprising in such a new building) Now on to the negatives: - Some of the decisions they made are, quite frankly, ridiculous. The rooms have no kettle, tea and coffee making facilities, storage space, fridge, desk, drinking water. Considering the price point, it's crazy not to have the basics of a hotel room. Local hotels like Clayton and Maldron offer all of these amenities at a similar or lower price point. Staying here for more than a night or two would be a nightmare, since there's literally nowhere to put your things. - Windows cannot be opened at all, which makes the room feel claustrophobic, particularly when the weather is warm. - Shower has extremely low pressure, which is a pet peeve of mine. All in all, if you're looking for a lower priced Marriott property in Dublin, it's more or less down to this or the Aloft. If you're not loyal to Marriott, there are far, far better options in Dublin.

    No expectations going in, I was pleasantly surprised. Comfortable, modern, bar downstairs, nice amenities. Bedroom was small but clean and nice. Wife didn’t think the bed was comfortable, but I thought it was fine. Bathroom in particular was a nice change from most Irish/EU stays. Modern, clean, functioning, hot water, etc. The whole experience was good and I would stay again. People were nice too!

    Fantastic and centrally located boutique hotel by Marriott. They are well staffed, polite, cool and very efficient. Was able to witness their busy period and they handled it with ease. Lots of cute, quirky things including the lobby atmosphere makes it a cool place to hang out waiting for your train (like I’m doing now). The food is good although the continental breakfast leaves a bit to be desired. Everything appears tidy except for the bird bones I spotted on the roof from my top floor room. Not a big deal but seemed too odd not to mention. Really appreciated all the amenities (high quality and full sized toiletries, air con, hair dryer) but can we please get full sockets in the bathroom?! I had to dry and straighten my hair using the end table which wasn’t ideal. This happens in most hotels tho so again, no marks off. Can’t say enough good things, would highly recommend a stay here when in Dublin. 👍🏽

    This hotel isn’t for those who travel all of the time, it lacks A LOT of amenities. There is no refrigerator in the rooms, only two pillows for the bed, limited towels in the bathroom, small rooms and lacks every amenity they most hotels offer. The bed is equivalent to a sofa bed…hard and uncomfortable. The staff at the “front desk” and bar have zero people skills with being friendly. This is the second Moxy I have stayed at and it will definitely be my last!

    Having read the reviews about the small rooms and the militaristic style of the rooms I still wasnt put off. The rooms I found really nice, well noise insulated and comfy. The location is excellent. Stones throw to O'Connol street. The drink prices are quite high but the service is decent in the bar. The manager in there is good and is really pleasent. However the experience at the reception was absolutely awful. I checked in on the friday which was fine but the girl seemed inexperienced. Me and my friends paid for 3 rooms on arrival. The next day the reception called one of our rooms demanding that we pay for an extra night TWICE in the space of an hour. When we went down to the desk they had realized they lost the credit card slip and they realize the room is paid but werent apologetic about it. When my family checked in on the Saturday (separate name and booking) they were told they booked 5 rooms and needed to pay for 5. The booking email was shown with 4 rooms and we were still told we had to pay for 5. We had to argue with the reception for them to say they wouldnt charge. That check in process was extremely slow as well. When checking out I woudlnt describe the experience as friendly either. I have never left a review about a hotel iv stayed at like this but the reception/check in experience was so dire I had to.

    I stayed at this hotel for my personal travel in a group. I wish I could rate this hotel a bit higher for its brand, services and perceived value for the daily rate being charged. Here is my feedback. Location, access to city life, transportation - 5*. Staff, service, cleanliness -5. Room size, amenities available in room, bed size - 3. Lobby, Bar, breakfast and space - 4. This is located in a very convenient and easily accessible location. Transportation to and from the city is easily available from here. Rooms and whole hotel is kept very clean. This hotel has a different, non-traditional decor; which gives different and modern feel. Here are a few things to consider for the value and keeping up with High standards. Breakfast - start early. Happy Hours would be better and more fun. Rooms - Add 120v US electrical outlet or provide an options outside the bathroom, have a small closet and a safe. Lobby - please make that TV a bit useful instead of that repeated annoying Moxy video.

    Ideal location but very basic. No coffee machine or mini fridge in the rooms which was disappointing. Staff very friendly and helpful, the lobby area was good for a drink/ meet/ watch the sports. We found the bed to be very uncomfortable as well as the pillows, and we didn't have a good night sleep at all. Probably wouldn't return to this hotel to stay but would use the meet up area and bar for a pit stop.

    The team was nice. Isabelle at check in was delightful. The lobby is nice and inviting. The rooms are small but cozy and effective. It's a newer property and things still seem fresh. The breakfast is limited and has eggs, bacon (ham), breads and some meat/cheese options. You check in at the bar area. If you want any of the grab and go items the bartender helps. The check in/welcome drink was a pink gin based cocktail.

    For a Marriott brand I’m a bit disappointed in the quality. The mattress is uncomfortable, no washcloths in the bathroom, and a continental breakfast (which is fine of course but after having breakfast at less expensive hotels for a week this is not impressive.) It is grown up hostel vibes. The positive: I love the fun design and colors. Staff are friendly. I just don’t think the value is here.

    Not bad. Very modern and the rooms lacked a lot of amenities I would expect (no desks or comfy chairs, no lotions or other bathroom sets) but the beds were comfortable enough and THEY HAD AIR CONDITIONING!!!! The bar was cute and the service was good every time we visited. The pizza was actually very good as were the cocktails. Good price for the location but look elsewhere if you're wanting luxury.

    Nice hotel excellent location, walking distance of all shops and food. The rooms while small were comfortable (beds). The downside to this is no rubbish bin outside of the bathroom, no small fridge and minimal space to put your things. If you plan on staying for a few days be aware that you might want a place with more room. The food down at the lobby was excellent. I'd recommend the pizza and the specialty drinks.

    Unfortunately this hotel just misses the mark, despite the “hype” and coolness it tries to portray. It’s a decent hotel that would deserve 3-4 stars if it was priced accordingly. You expect better from a Marriott Bonvoy hotel.. What is great: + Trendy atmosphere, bar area is nicely decorated, computers available + Check-in was quick and easy, no issues. + Great location + Rooms are modern, sound-proof walls Negatives: - Rooms are so minimalistic. There’s literally not a desk in the room (the glass cutout can’t be considered a desk, it’s doesn’t cover the length of a laptop) - No normal chair, no trash can (there’s a box or smth that looks like it, but..) - No cleaning of the rooms. Seriously? 4 nights and no one cleaned. Ridiculous. They don’t even tell you that.. And don’t mention the COVID excuse, that doesn’t justify it - No wardrobe or anything. Just a couple of hangers on some wall installation - Kitchen is awful and so overpriced. There’s maybe 3-4 “dishes” available: chicken wings, nachos, a flatbread. That’s it.

    The reception is lovely very well decorated but an elevator broke on our first night the chrome cast did not work and when we called the receptionist all we were told was it’s broken as if we didn’t already know that. We also had to deal with a very rude receptionist who gave us a lot of attitude and was very unnecessary rude when on the second night the front door broke and we’re were spoke to about using the wrong door even though it was the only door to use. I really wouldn’t recommend this place if your here for a relaxed atmosphere but if you only using the hotel to sleep in then the firm bed with only one pillow each is also not worth staying in stay away trust me

    Really liked this hotel and would have happily given it the full 5 stars but for a couple of crucial details. I was excited for my first Moxy experience as a Titanium member and frequenter of many Marriott brands, the concept seemed excellent. And it absolutely lived up to that. Let me be clear to folks unfamiliar with Moxy; the concept is something of a hotel/hostel crossover. You won’t get full service or the frills of your standard Marriott, what you will get is a very thoughtfully designed social/bar area and a slimmed down room offering. The staff were fantastic and I thought the bar area was excellent. Quite appreciated the DART mural. The location is also superb - and really if it’s your first time in Dublin then the less time spent in your room the better. You’re walking distance to virtually everything worth going to. Now, the not so good: if you’re a hotel then your bread and butter needs to be the bed and bedding. And it’s borderline horrendous. I echo comments on the firmness of the mattress, you’d be as well sleeping on the floor. Additionally the pillows are some of the worst I’ve encountered, even dating back to my Southeast Asia backpacking days. In summary, I wanted to love this place but honestly could only in good conscience like it. Sort out the basics Moxy and you’ll be my go-to in Dublin.

    The Moxy is not what I would say is a good hotel, there is little to no storage in the rooms. The rooms are very nice don’t get me wrong, but there wasn’t even a trash can in my room, so I ended up with a pile of trash until I found a bag. The breakfast is a joke and should not be bought unless it is a Sunday morning and most other things are closed. Now my biggest complaint was with the staff and management. I had a experience with a staff member I would not wish on anyone, where he tried to touch me without my permission. I told Management about this incident, I was promised action and nothing came. The worst part is the staff member came to work the next day and was clearly told to avoid me, which I appreciated, but my stay was three nights. He could have been given an extra day off and he should have be fired or had hours taken away. Honestly, it ruined my stay and I would discourage most people from coming to this hotel again.

    On the second day of our stay we noticed a smell like rotten eggs in our room, coming from the drain. After notifying the staff we were moved to a different to which smelled fine. However, on the next day there was again coming a very unpleasant smell from the drains in the bathroom. Since we only had one night left we decided to stay in the room since we didn't feel like moving again. There was no closet, no main bin, no safe, no fridge, no water in our room and the windows couldn't be opened. For our three night stay the room wasn't cleaned once, we didn't get new towels or toilet paper. Also there was only one very flat pillow in the bed. Breakfast was alright but nothing special. Staff was very friendly and helpful, the location was quite convenient (although the streets around the hotel seemed rather medium safe), the lobby was furnished stylishly and there was a free welcome drink.

    The location is excellent, except the light rail is next to it and make little noise. The front desk and bar staffs are nice and friendly, the hardware in the room is standard, but the complaint I have are the pump of the hair conditioner bottle is broken, and the clean towels in the bathroom both have colored stains. Hope they could be checked carefully before placing in use.

  • 5/5 N P. 2 years ago on Google
    Best hospitality experience!! Perfect Hotel, located at the city centre and 5 min by foot from bus station (Dublin-Belfast). The room was very spacious and so quite. Also very new and very clean. But the best about this experience was the staff. Everyone was so helpful and so friendly!! They made us a great birthday dinner at hotel and we enjoyed it so much!! Thank you guys for everything! See you soon!!

  • 5/5 Marianne C. 5 months ago on Google
    We didn’t stay at Moxy, but we were stranded and locked out of our hotel due to the Dublin Riots happening in front out our hotel. The hotel next to ours was set on fire. With nowhere safe to go, the lovely security guard let us, and many other stranded people wait it out in their lobby. Warm and safe. Cannot thank the staff enough for being so understanding. We sat there watching them work hard to accommodate everyone stranded and those staying. Next time I come to Dublin, I will be staying here! Thanks from an Australian family!

  • 5/5 Sophie P. 2 years ago on Google
    Our stay was excellent. We stayed here as a belated bday present for my boyfriend and the hotel crew went above and beyond to make it special. They put balloons in our room and also gave us some free drink coupons too. Decor was amazing, the fragrance when you walk into the lobby is delightful and the location is a short walk to everything.Will be back and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Dublin. Thank you!

  • 3/5 Steve L. 6 months ago on Google
    Barely a 3 star hotel. The good: Service from the young staff is fine, location is convenient and walkable to most points of interest in Dublin. The bad: The rooms themselves are a let down. Paper thin walls, you can hear everything. Quality of the bathroom furnishings are poor. Turn on the tap and it fluctuates between warm and cold. Flushing the toilet and water doesn't stop flowing into the bowl. The minimalism of the room makes it feel a bit "empty". I didn't find the room cheap either so I'm not sure what's going on in Dublin.

  • 4/5 Robyn E. 6 months ago on Google
    This is a really lovely place to stay when in Dublin, I would rate it ideal for lively people who are looking for a space close to the city and train/bus lines. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms and bathrooms are clean and sufficiently sized. We had an issue with the aircon in our room on the first night and the staff were very helpful about the situation and it was resolved speedily. Thank you.

  • 5/5 Marwah A. 5 months ago on Google
    I've stayed at a few Moxy hotels around the world, and the one in Dublin is pretty much the same as the others. The rooms are small and basic and clean. I like that the soaps and shampoos do not come in the small one time use plastic bottles. They're provided in big wall mounted bottles. The check-in process was quick and efficient. My sister asked for a top floor room and was given one. My only complaint is that the prices are a bit high for a simple and basic hotel. I guess the location plays a big role in the prices. The location is great. You're within walking distance to many locations.

    Fab hotel Amazing location, easy to walk to everywhere Staff were all friendly Food was great, breakfast was fine. Enough continental choice and all fresh. Pizza was fab at the bar. Drinks were good and usual Dublin prices. Rooms were compact but clean and modern. Thanks for the balloons for our friends birthday

  • 5/5 Dave J. 5 months ago on Google
    Great little hotel. Fantastic location and easy to get to from the airport. You know what you are getting when staying here. Clean modern rooms. Front desk staff were amazing. We arrived at 6am after a long overnight flight and they were able to check us in super early to get a couple hours of rest before venturing out. I always stay here when visiting

  • 5/5 Nick P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic hotel by Marriott here in downtown Dublin The beds are great and the room size is very good. The only downside to keep in mind is, The shower stall is kind of narrow for a tall American like me. It's doable, it's just tight But beyond that I highly recommend staying here

  • 4/5 Philippa Pham H. 1 year ago on Google
    Very well located and a fun vibe. There’s a pub across the street called Pipers Corner with legit traditional Irish music sessions, according to our Irish musician pal. The rooms don’t have any storage space or a closet. You hang your clothes on a wire rack mounted on the wall, which I don’t mind but a few more hangers In The room would be helpful. There are no horizontal surfaces to put things on so that’s annoying. For 175 euros a night, I am pleased with my stay.

  • 3/5 Darren H. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful hotel in a great location with very friendly staff. Unfortunately, the "signature scent" perfume that they continually blast in the lobby and throughout the hotel was very bothersome and caused sinus problems. I feel sorry for the staff who have to work in that toxic environment all day. Also, the heater didn't work well and would shut off in the middle of the night. If you don't mind those things, overall, this place is a great place to stay, is very hip, and has one of the coolest lobbies I've seen.

  • 5/5 Tressie F. 2 years ago on Google
    A wonderful place to stay. The Moxy in Dublin is affordable, centrally located, friendly and convenient. Conceived as a more casual offshoot of the Marriott hotel chain, Moxy aims for a younger business-casual demographic but during our week-long stay we observed travelers of all sorts and ages coming and going. A short walk from downtown Dublin, with a very accommodating staff (see Demetrius at the front desk and he will help you whatever your endeavor), clean, amply-sized rooms, and new amenities, the Moxy is going to be our go-to for lodging in Dublin.

  • 5/5 Brad K. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, clean facilities, GREAT location. Breakfast was good and the bar was open until 23:30. I would definitely stay again. However the beds are pretty stiff an rather uncomfortable so be prepared.

  • 4/5 Patrick S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great Hotel. Location is perfect for exploring Dublin Centre. Rooms are good. No kettles though. Breakfast…. It’s simple and ok. No hot option and it’s all a bit fiddly. If breakfast isn’t included I’d go out for breakfast. Would 100% stay again

  • 4/5 Jordan L. 1 year ago on Google
    Overall, decent hotel. Great location, walking distance from everything. Warning that the beds are hard as a rock so a bit tough to get decent sleep. Definitely avoid the breakfast which is 12 Euro per person and not good. Rooms were clean and are large for Europe.

  • 4/5 Darrin K. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice, new, very clean, and great location. As a business traveler, the desk in the rooms is a bit too small for working, but otherwise the room is ample size and the bed is comfortable. One of the more affordable options in Dublin and part of the Marriott reward program. But be forewarned, they don't turn the coffee machine on before 8:00 am!

  • 5/5 Wiktoria S. 2 years ago on Google
    I stayed here for 2 nights with my boyfriend and we were so glad we chose this hotel as a place to stay. We loved how it was decorated and just the modernity of it! It was so close to everything. The welcome drink was really nice, the bed was comfy and there are very spacious storage lockers for your baggage whether you’re waiting to check in or checking out and wanna keep your bags to collect them before you leave. I really can’t fault this place. We were sad to leave and we will definitely be back :)

  • 5/5 O N. 2 years ago on Google
    We stayed in the Moxy Dublin. The reception was friendly and welcoming. We had to print off a few items and they were able to assist us with our printing needs. We received a coupon for a complimentary drink. The lounge area was clean and met the government guidelines. Our room was cozy. The bed basically makes up most of the room. The lamps and tv screen are all well placed. The outdoor noise is muffled. The bathroom is amazing. Definitely a hotel for travelers, couples, or those for city trips/ staycations. #marriot #staycation #citytrip #clean

    Great hotel in good location, rooms are super swish and hotel staff very friendly. Only thing I couldn't get to work was the Chromecast on the TV!

  • 5/5 Joanne H. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely spot, perfect for a city break. The room was spotless and the rooms were very quiet. All the staff were very helpful, the cheeky complimentary cocktail at check-in helped 😉😁

  • 5/5 Ryan P. 2 years ago on Google
    The Moxy! Clean, complimentary and brilliant! We will definitely be staying here again. Rooms was fantastic, bar was even better. Perfect place to go back to after a day of travel
