Times Square Vibey Gem with Location Location!!!

Super vibe-y if you're into that and the location is insanely awesome if you want to be Times Square theatre district and West Midtown. It's right along the E line along 8th Avenue. Couldn't be better. I've stayed here 4 times. Check in takes literally one minute. No wait!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall, really liked the hotel. The staff was very friendly and communicative. The location is very convenient. Close enough to theatres without completely being in the Times Square mix and close to the restaurants on 9th Ave. While the room was nice, it was VERY small with very little space to hang/store clothes and toiletries. I did opt for the cozy room but would still have expected a little bit of space for clothes. Amenities were a little lacking compared to other hotels (e.g., no coffee in rooms or lobby) and the lack of a full shower/door or curtain led to water getting everywhere in the bathroom.

Great location but the rooms are tiny to the point where you are tripping over luggage. Rooftop was not open during our 3 day stay which was extremely disappointing.

Short city break

From the moment we checked in, the customer service has been outstanding. The hotel room was nice clean with a lovely view of the Hudson river. The hotel is easy walking distance to Times Square and loads of restaurants and shops on your door step. We tried the restaurant downstairs and the food was very tasty. Also a lovely view from their roof top bar if you fancy a cocktail. The offer complimentary tea and coffee in the mornings. I would highly recommended this hotel and i would happily come back next time I'm in New York

We had an enjoyable stay at the Civilian. The staff team are friendly and helpful. The decor is beautiful. The hotel itself is in a great location. Walk two blocks to 46 st and you’ll find a street full of restaurants. We enjoyed Dim sum palace and Jasmines Caribbean cuisine. But there are streets and streets of places to discover all within walking distance. We had a cosy queen room on the 24th floor, we couldn’t hear the music etc from the roof top bar, the hotel itself was quit quiet. The cosy queen is cosy (small) and there is very very limited storage space, we lived out of the suitcases, which was a little frustrating, but not really a problem. We had two minor hiccups and the staff team rectified straight away. They use WhatsApp to connect with guests, which is great as you usually get a quick response. The roof top bar (starchild) is fun, I enjoyed sitting in the covered area watching the sunset. I would stay at the Civilian again, but I would opt for a bigger room if sharing with another person and be prepared to pay for a daily clean of the room. They did offer a complimentary clean mid way through stay ( day 3) But this was just changing the sheets and providing clean towels. I would give this hotel 7/10.

A civilian with a squeegee

The front desk staff was exceptional, providing a warm and welcoming experience. The hotel's decor and ambiance were chic and inviting, and the location was ideal. My "cozy" room was pleasantly spacious! The only reason I'm not giving a full five stars is due to an issue with the bathroom design; when showering, the bathroom would flood. There was even a sign and a squeegee provided to help manage the water, but it left my bathroom wet all night, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, I truly enjoyed my stay! Thank you, Civilian!

Great place in excellent location.

Great find in a very central location. The staff are wonderful, very friendly and respond immediately to any queries. Room was clean, chic and well designed for a small trip. No wardrobe and quite small if you have a lot of luggage. Had fabulous brunch with lovely waitress recommending a small portion and then charging so much less. There are several restaurants and a rooftop bar. Felt safe for a solo traveler. Overall quiet for the location. Would definitely stay again.
