Trevi's handles comforting Italian inside, while Trevi's Terrazza leans into al fresco evenings with fire pits and sangria. Croc's keeps poolside cravings covered, and Eagles Edge blends golf, beer, and All-American eats with Toptracer tech on deck. Early tee times and midday refuels meet at Piper's Grille, while Broadway Deli handles to-go snacks, sandwiches, and hand-scooped gelato. Cap it all off at the Lobby Bar or just make that call to the concierge for room service. | | | | |  | | CIVILIAN Hotel | | New York, NY | | At CIVILIAN Hotel, the Theater District's backstage buzz carries into every bite and pour.

Atop it all, Starchild Rooftop offers skyline views and a retractable roof, pulling in locals and theatergoers alike.
