About Moxy Glasgow SEC by Marriott

Concerts, exhibitions and conference dates at the nearby arena make Finnieston Street a handy base, and Moxy Glasgow SEC by Marriott puts guests within easy reach of the venue and the River Clyde waterfront beyond it. Finnieston itself has become known for its bars and restaurants, and there's a pub, eatery and golf course all within reach of the hotel, so there's plenty to fill an evening before or after whatever's on at the SEC.

The hotel has 243 rooms spread across nine floors, each with an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning and free WiFi; family and accessible rooms are also available. Rooms run on the compact side, but they're kept clean and comfortable, with showers that guests consistently rate as strong. A restaurant and bar cover food and drink on site, breakfast gets good marks, and there's a snack bar and packed lunches for those heading out early. A small gym, laundry service and business and meeting facilities round out the practical side.

Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, useful for anyone navigating an unfamiliar city on event days. Parking isn't available on site but can be arranged nearby for a fee, and pets are welcome for those travelling with an animal in tow.

I stayed at Moxy Glasgow for about a week during the Commonwealth Games 2026 as an athlete and the staff were lovely. I knew Moxy is a no-frills hotel designed for shorter stays, so I wasn’t expecting extras like a pillow menu. The only issue I had was that the standard pillows were a little too high for my small frame, which made sleeping comfortably a challenge. Ellie was absolutely wonderful. Instead of simply saying there wasn’t an alternative, she came up with such a thoughtful solution. She noticed the decorative pillows in the lobby were much thinner and offered to put one into a pillowcase for me to try. It was such a simple but incredibly kind and creative idea…and it worked perfectly! It’s gestures like these that make a stay memorable. Thank you, Ellie - it made all the difference to my stay!

The room is clean, big enough. My room's view was the deck of the parkinglot. Fine to stay if you are to visit a gig or event in the nearby buildings. But for an holiday the hotel area is not nice. Breakfast is good: continental with plenty healthy stuff to choose.

Stayed here for 14 days during Commonwealth Games! 5 min walk to Hydro. Staff were utmost friendly and helpful during meal services. Food served were delectable! Great music in the background to keep the fun vibes of Moxy. Rooms have light sensors. The moment you step on the floor at night, the cove lights on the floor lights up, really cool! Plenty of power sockets. Instead of the usual wardrobe, the room provides 3 hooks and some hangars. Daily room service is available. Pink serviettes will forever remind me of Moxy! People make Glasgow, People make Moxy! Cheers,

The Moxy is a stylish and reasonably priced hotel in the perfect location for events at the Hydro and SECC. A friend and I stayed in a twin room (£103) and parked our car in the multi storey car park next door (£12 for 24 hours if you validate your parking at hotel reception). The rooms are compact by design, but they are clean and well equipped with everything you should need for a night on the town. This includes coat hooks (no wardrobe), a kettle with tea and instant coffee, a full length mirror, a well-lit bathroom mirror, plenty of plug sockets, TV, air conditioning, a window that opens (although it can be noisy outside) and comfy beds. Do note that there is no fridge, safe or workspace, however. Check out is at 12pm - which I very much appreciate after a big night. It was pleasantly busy in the bar / reception area. We were there for a concert, so the artist’s music was playing and we met a few fellow excited fans. There is a purple pool table and a photobooth, plus each guest is offered a complimentary welcome cocktail: peach iced tea served with or without gin. Now that’s my cup of tea ! The hotel seems to be pet friendly, as there is a station with water and treats next to the bar. It only takes a couple of minutes to walk to the nearby venues, Finnieston or Argyll Street - the latter of which is home to a selection of bars and restaurants. Overall, we both enjoyed our stay here and think it did add some pizazz to our concert experience!
