Our stay at Civilian was just what we needed. Incredibly close to Times Square, Broadway shows, and the areas around Manhattan. We have no complaints. The rooms were modest, but large enough to accommodate us for our short stay. We would love to visit again soon!

My new NYC fave...the STAFF! Welcoming, knowledgeable, engaging. Across the entire hotel, from the lobby to the rooftop bar — this property knows how to train "on brand," and I'm here for it. Clean, well-appointed rooms, delicious food and a fantastic bar selection. Highly recommend CIVILIAN.

Great location. Friendly and helpful lobby staff. But, incredibly slow and crowded elevators. Bed placement in room terrible. Virtually impossible to get to other side of bed.

Amazing from check in to check out. Clean room and nice staff. We got there early in the day prior to check in time and we were able to check in. Rooms are small but it’s NYC! Beautifully decorated. Loved the fact there was a garment steamer in our room! Elevators are kinda small and can be slower at times but no big deal. Great distance to everything! Quick walk to Times Square and Broadway areas or subway access. There is a deli market on the corner for when you just need some room snacks. Probably our NYC go-to from now on!

Room was clean, the old style decor but still new is a nice touch. For a NYC hotel this is a great place for the value compared to the other chains. Everywhere in NYC is small but this met my work trip needs perfectly

Check in was smooth, my room was small (which I expected) but it was clean and had everything I needed. It was in walking distance of restaurants and near public transportation so getting around was super easy. I didn't get a chance to eat or try the rooftop area, but I would definitely stay again and give those a try!
