The Spotlight on citizenM New York Times Square

Smart, Stylish Stays Steps from the Stage

Modern, tech-savvy, and just a block from the bright lights of Times Square, citizenM New York Times Square puts you in the heart of Manhattan’s entertainment district. With bold design, smart rooms, and a social vibe, it's a great base for music lovers looking to pair their concert nights with city sights by day. You’re within walking distance of Central Park, Columbus Circle, and iconic landmarks like Rockefeller Center and the Empire State Building.

Why Concert-goers love it

You can’t get much closer to the action—this hotel is a literal minute's walk to Times Square, and some of NYC’s biggest venues are just blocks away. The rooms are designed for comfort and quiet, despite the buzz outside. After a late show, the 24/7 food and drink service has you covered, and the express check-in means no waiting around when you arrive. Tech-savvy guests love the in-room iPad that controls everything from lights to temperature to TV—with free Chromecast for streaming your favorite music content.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want to stay central and close to the nightlife
  • Solo travelers catching that once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples planning a weekend escape with music and city views
  • Fans who need a quiet, comfy space to recover post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want style without splurging

Food and Drink Options

You’ll find 24/7 food and beverage service on-site—including barista coffee and freshly made cocktails any time of day or night. The breakfast buffet is a hit with late risers, offering everything from local favorites to vegan-friendly options. While there's no traditional restaurant, there are plenty of walkable dining spots nearby to hit before or after the show.

Nightlife Options

The hotel’s exclusive rooftop bar is a destination on its own, with skyline views perfect for a nightcap. The location puts you within steps of Broadway theaters, buzzing rooftop lounges, and hidden speakeasies. Prefer to keep it chill? The living room-style lobby is a great place to unwind with a drink among contemporary art and like-minded travelers.

What People Say

Guests rave about the unbeatable location, the stylish and functional rooms, and how quiet the hotel feels despite being so central. The easy check-in, fast Wi-Fi, and smart tech features make the stay feel seamless. Many mention the rooftop bar as a hidden gem and appreciate the friendly, efficient staff.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are cozy—some might say compact—so those traveling with lots of luggage should pack smart. There’s no traditional restaurant or room service menu, but the 24/7 food area does the trick for most. If you're expecting a bellhop or concierge desk, the self-service vibe may take a minute to get used to.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want modern comfort, a killer location, and late-night convenience, citizenM New York Times Square hits all the right notes.

Mary F, Newburyport, visiting Richard Rodgers Theatre Fri, 19 February 2016

Had a great 2 day, 1 night stay at CitizenM in NYC with my daughter. Location was perfect. Hotel staff was excellent. Room, although small for some people, was perfect for us. My daughter loved the rain shower that changed colors. The breakfast we added for an additional charge was good. The decor was fun and funky!

Liked: Big bed; fun, youthful; perfect location!
Disliked: Small room.

Denise B, Kingston Mon, 19 January 2015

Had a great stay; nice staff, always willing to help. They let us check in early which was a great thing because I had a broken foot and was on crutches and needed to put my luggage down. The hotel was right across the street from our show. So I went across the street with no problems. Hotel is in a perfect spot for what we needed - show, food and sleep. It was perfect and comfortable, very clean with free wifi.

Liked: Yes.

Location is everything when it...

Liked: Location is hard to beat - right in the center of Broadway's theater district, with subway stations all around and practically all major Broadway musicals within 1-7 minutes' walk. Hotel is chic, breakfast is good though repetitive, but the main downside was the room, which outside of Hong Kong and Japan was the smallest I've ever been in, with the bed arranged strangely, pressed against the wall and accessible only from one side. Also, one lift was out of service, and the remaining two were simply not enough to cater for the traffic, causing overly long waiting times.
Disliked: Room size, elevator service
