The Spotlight on CIVILIAN Hotel

Smart, Stylish, and Steps from the Stage

Modern and artfully designed, the CIVILIAN Hotel is a sleek 4-star property in Midtown Manhattan that blends comfort with culture. Located on West 48th Street in the heart of New York City’s Theater District, it’s within walking distance of major entertainment landmarks like Times Square, Broadway Theatre, and Radio City Music Hall. With a rooftop terrace, on-site restaurant, and chic interiors, it’s an energetic yet refined base for your next concert night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans love the central location—you're just minutes from some of NYC’s most iconic stages. After a show, you can walk back safely, avoiding crowded subways or pricey rideshares. The 24-hour front desk makes late-night arrivals smooth, and while the vibe is lively, the rooms are well-insulated for a peaceful night’s sleep.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends wanting to be near the action
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list show
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of it
  • Fans seeking a quieter recovery space post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want style

Food and Drink Options

The hotel features its own restaurant and bar, perfect for a pre-show dinner or post-gig nightcap. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the continental and buffet breakfast options are ideal for a late morning start after a big night. Plus, you're steps from dozens of late-night eateries in the Theater District.

Nightlife Options

The CIVILIAN Hotel puts you within walking distance of buzzing bars and lounges, including Broadway haunts and hidden speakeasies. While it doesn’t host live music on-site, the rooftop and lobby bar offer a stylish setting to start or end your night with a cocktail and skyline views.

What People Say

Reviews on Booking.com and TripAdvisor praise the hotel’s unique design, clean and comfortable rooms, and exceptional location. Travelers consistently highlight the friendly staff and modern vibe as key reasons they’d return.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that rooms are compact—expected in NYC—but well laid out. Others noted elevator wait times during peak hours, so allow a few extra minutes if you're heading out for a show.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting style, location, and ease, CIVILIAN Hotel hits all the right notes in Midtown Manhattan.

Great location for solo traveller

Liked: The location was great, very close to all the sights.

My favourite hotel in NYC

Liked: My favourite hotel I have stayed in NYC, amazing Hell’s Kitchen location - walkable/subway to everywhere, we got in late so walked to the stardust diner and were local to shows. As a theatre lover this was such a fun hotel to stay in and a gorgeous rooftop - will be staying here when I return to New York
Disliked: NA

Nice, small, functional, great location.

Liked: Fantastic location, in the heart of Hells Kitchen, Manhattan. A wonderful place to base yourself for a few days. We had a few deliveries too, and the reception staff were helpful in receiving those.
Disliked: The room is pokey, having to pay extra for cleaning your room.
