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.
