We stayed at the Carvi NYC in mid January. It is a very small hotel and the rooms are small, but as long as you and your travel partner get along well, it's no problem at all! The room felt like a very cozy bedroom. Before going I read reviews about the small shower being an issue - it is... More

The Carvi Hotel was a great choice for my first trip to New York City. It was very clean, nicely furnished, reasonably priced, and the staff were wonderful! It is within walking distance of many popular attractions and surrounded by good restaurants. Highly recommend! More

This hotel is nicely furnished, clean, and a very friendly staff. Problem is, the rooms are so small they are non-functional for more than one person. I was there for 4 days and I very nearly ate the room cost and moved hotels. One person no problem, two people and you are cooked. The shower is literally half sized. I'm... More

The location of this hotel was pretty good. Plenty of places to eat close by and a subway station within a couple of blocks. The room was tiny though and not comfortable for two people. I know rooms in NYC are small but this was uncomfortably small in my opinion. You could probably get away with it for one person... More

Somehow, I did not expect much - because I was redirected to this hotel, when travel agent could not confirm my another reservation. However - it was very very good; it was - for now - the largest room I ever had in Manhatten, nice decor, very quiet. More

My husband and I stayed at the Carvi Hotel for four nights in early June 2011. We hadn’t been to NYC for 20 years and had no idea where to stay. As usual in this type of circumstance I turned to Trip Advisor. After much research we chose the Carvi due to the great reviews, good location, and reasonable rates... More

Everyone knows how difficult it is to find a good and not ovepriced hotel in NY. For my first trip to New York in March,2011 Carvi hotel was the best possible choice. The rooms may not be very big, but they are very well equiped, clean and new. They Wi-Fi connection was stable and quick enough. The bed was sooo... More

First night was put in a very small room that one could barely get around the bed. The walls were scuffed and needed paint, the carpet was stained, and the bathroom so small that if you dropped your soap in the shower you would have had to get out of the shower to pick it up. And the air conditioned... More
