MOXY NYC Times Square

Midtown, New York

Virgin rating

The hotel

Quirky, cool and exciting, the Moxy Times Square offers an experience you’ll never forget. Nowhere else in the Big Apple has anything quite like it — an urban amusement park complete with pitch and putt and a carousel, a tattoo parlour, and a topiary garden. Your room is a trendy, modern haven, perfect to head back to after a day of sightseeing. And in the evening, you can head up to the rooftop bar to sip on a cocktail, and admire the twinkling skyline surrounding you, topped off with a view of the iconic Empire State Building.

First of all, Lettie at the front desk is everything people have said and more. The loveliest, most genuinely sweet and friendly person - she started out our stay on such a happy note.

First of all, Lettie at the front desk is everything people have said and more. The loveliest, most genuinely sweet and friendly person - she started out our stay on such a happy note. Lettie was so kind and charming to my little son that he and I both walked away saying how wonderful she was. Actually, every single employee we encountered was outstandingly friendly and courteous. The room itself was small (which is standard for Manhattan) but so efficiently laid out that we didn't feel at all cramped. Decor was cool and fun and modern. We loved the vibe of the whole hotel. And the "Stash"! Aka the closet at the end of the hall where one could conveniently find complimentary toothbrushes, razors, shower caps, deodorant, water, an iron, extra towels and blankets, and probably more that I'm forgetting. So thoughtful and generous! I detest hotels that make me feel like I'm being nickeled and dimed (unfortunately also standard for Manhattan), and the Moxy was the shining example of the opposite. I felt truly like a warmly welcomed guest and we were sad to leave. Will be back for sure! Read less

We are frequent guests at the Moxy and stayed at Moxy Times Square for a week in January 2025 to celebrate my birthday. When we first visited in 2022, we met Giovanny and became friends. Due to the distance between Germany and New York, we lost touch a bit. However, we unexpectedly met again on يناير 22, 2025, and it felt as if no time had passed at all. Since it was my birthday, the Moxy team surprised us with little gifts. What an amazing team! They make us feel like part of the Moxy family. Reuniting with Giovanny was the highlight. We will definitely come back. Thank you for the wonderful time with you. We love Moxy Times Square! Read less

I stayed in 2 different rooms during this visit. I needed a room for 3 ppl the first 2 nights so I booked the bunk bed room. While the room was small, it was great to have the bed space for 3 ppl.

I stayed in 2 different rooms during this visit. I needed a room for 3 ppl the first 2 nights so I booked the bunk bed room. While the room was small, it was great to have the bed space for 3 ppl. For the rest of my stay, I had a queen room. This room was a little larger. I’ve stayed in Moxy brand hotels a lot so used to the coziness of these hotels. In both rooms, thought it was strange there was no chair or stool for the desk and table. Had to ask at least 3 times to get one brought up. I’ve seen a foldable hanging stool in other Moxy. This would be good to have in the room. My first room was on the 5th floor on the 7th street side and was super loud. Once I moved, I was on the 9th floor not facing the street and was much better. Beds are comfortable and shower is nice. Thanks for a nice stay. Will continue to look for these unique hotels in the cities I travel to. Read less
