Cheshire Blue Posted August 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Looks like we will stay here the night before our cruise next month having drove down from NW during the day. Park the car overnight and then on to Cruise terminal to park with AB Parking ? for the duration of the cruise Anyone have any tips / experience of the Moxy / parking. Anywhere to eat (within walking distance that evening) ? Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John Bull Posted August 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Haven't stayed at the Moxy, but I understand it's a quirky Marriott brand. Designed for younger folk, gets pretty decent reviews. No carpark, its adjacent to the multi-storey carpark for the big West Quay Mall. If arrangements at Moxy are the same as for the adjoining Premier Inn West Quay, you can get a reduced-fee overnite multi-storey ticket Excellent location, 100 yards from the West Quay entertainment & dining complex - a line of restaurants facing the old city wall. Most (all?) of those restaurants are cloned national & international brands, if you want something more individual it's a 10-minute walk to the waterfront - Dancing Man dining/pub/micro-brewery, or the Duke of Wellington dining/pub 100 yards behind it on Bugle St., or Kuti's Indian opposite it, or Ennio's (Italian) or La Regata (Spanish) restaurants a few yards further along the waterfront. We've eaten at all of them except Kuti's ('er-indoors doesn't do Indian), Ennos & La Regata are a bit more expensive but equivalent value-for-money. The Bargate through the city wall at the other end of West Quay Mall links the old & new parts of the city centre. JB 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not as young as we used to be - happy to do quirky for one night 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho_proudfoot Posted August 23, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 23, 2022 We stayed at the Moxy ( as it then was changed hands I gather) at Edinburgh Airport a couple of years ago. Yes quirky but with some nice features ( soft blue lighting around the bed when it senses your feet ) Great for overnight bathroom visits........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
