The Hotel Chelsea

Me encanta el Chelsea por todo, quizá lo único que esta vez no fue lindo es que tuvieron un evento con la marca Prada y había demasiada gente en el lobby, en los elevadores, en la calle, a lobby largo de 5 días

A

Exceptional property, amazing gym, great restaurants and lobby bar. Rooms are spacious and bathroom is amazing! Nothing

Simply amazing. The most comfortable bed and sheets. Great complimentary coffee in the room The whole hotel is gorgeous and unique and feels truly special. Was moved to a room with a balcony which was incredible. True luxury. I cannot wait to come back.

Amazing stay. The hotel was well-staffed and beautifully maintained. It lived up to its historic image.

The facilities and staff at the Hotel Chelsea were everything we were hoping for hoping to make the most of a rare vacation. The staff did everything they could to ensure our comfort & satisfaction. Highly recommend if your hotel is an important part of your vacation.

Hotel Chelsea is a wonderful place to stay in the Chelsea neighborhood with a rich history. William gave us a private tour of the property with great stories about it's past, including his personal experiences. We had a minor issue with the hot water which was promptly fixed. A fun, somewhat funky place and we will definitely be back.

Once again the hotel Chelsea was wonderful. The room was beautiful. The linens and towels were high quality. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We are all ready talking about when we will return next year.

Exceptional

We will be staying there again hopefully very soon.

Would recommend to anyone!

Best hotel we’ve ever stayed at and we have stayed at many many hotels in NYC over the last 20 years. Will definitely return as everything was fantastic including all the staff.

Great interiors, beautiful rooms and food

The Hotel Chelsea a gem! Our room was so incredibly cozy. We stayed in a Petite Suite and were absolutely blown away by the decor, the floorplan layout, the balcony doors, the water pressure (best ever), and, of course, the service and hospitality from staff was fantastic too. We enjoyed massages at the spa and dinner & drinks at the Cafe Chelsea, Lobby Bar, Teruko (first time eating sushi!) and via room service. I recommend the Hotel Chelsea if you’re wanting to immerse yourself in true New York culture. Absolutely wonderful on all accounts!

Best hotel in the city.m

It's not cheap,but what do you expect if you want somewhere as good as this? The staff were ultra polite and helpful,even got me onto a front balcony for a Dee Dee Ramone shot. My room was beautifully furnished and decorated,very sympathetic to the building.The artwork on the walls meant I hardly used the lift,it was a joy to walk past it. Go to the in house restaurant,the speciality lobster and steak is a treat.

Convenient Influencers in the gym crowding your personal space

Loved it and will go back! Nina

Coffee in restaurant cold, serice fair

Although I loved the hotel and it is a step back in time which is one of the reasons I had waited for a long time to go there. My Main complaint was I booked a Premier room for a special weekend in New York. On the website It looks like it comes with a balcony and when you get there if you haven’t called and reserved a specific balcony room, you pay the same amount of money but get a room that is not nearly as nice. Felt a lot like a baiting switch. I would not recommend getting the Premier room if you’re not sure you’re getting one.

Excellent around, exceeded my expectations

Beautiful, historic hotel with timeless class and elegance. Room was comfortable and clean, staff was welcoming and dining was above par!

my only complaint is the gym lighting in both the rooms and hallways

Really great art everywhere. Cool mood lighting. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Great neighborhood. Able to walk every place we wanted to see. Loved the marble bathroom with the brass fixtures. Very quiet. Slept so well. Good cable tv. Saw some great movies. Cafe is amazing. Spend the money and go!

P.S. best French fries in the city

Eat at least once at the hotel. But reserve a table. Go for it. In town that night and don’t want to start searching the city for something to do, get tickets to Gotham Comedy club next door, don’t need a coat to use to get there! Then 10 steps back to the Hotel. Very easy.

I totally enjoyed the stay, the parking garage arrangements were well done. The staff was super helpful, the restaurants we visited and room service were great. I loved the art throughout the hotel, the mix of stories about famous celebrities as well as ghost stories really made the place feel special. A lot of nice touches in design. The technology was good too, wifi, tvs capable of connecting to one's phone, it was all good. I hope to return and would highly recommend for a fun time exploring NYC's mid to lower Manhattan.

We were treated like rock royalty and it lived up to every five star expectation.

I stayed in the Grand Suite Chelsea, a corner suite on the ninth floor. The room itself is exceptional. Flooded with natural light, beautifully designed, and generous in scale. That said, the bedroom within the suite is noticeably tight compared to the living areas. It works, but it is something to be aware of. The in-room experience is where the property really distinguishes itself. The minibar is fully stocked, with non alcoholic beverages and snacks offered on a complimentary basis, while alcoholic options are available for purchase. It is a thoughtful and genuinely appreciated touch. And candidly, the rooms here surpass those at Chateau Marmont in every respect. As I have said before, Chateau Marmont is overdue for a refresh. I spent time in the spa as well. It is pleasant and well executed, though not what I would classify as true luxury. Still, a lovely experience. The gym, located in its own space on the top floor, is beautifully done and feels like a hidden asset of the hotel. The lobby bar sets the tone for the evenings. It is a great space for drinks and atmosphere. Service, however, was uneven. While the staff is attentive, it

One of the most unique hotels I’ve stayed in. It felt like a beautiful home. We loved the history of the hotel and the rooms were a great size for NYC. Cool part of the city to wander. We sat outside for a late dinner and it felt like Paris. Friendly knowledgeable staff too.

Beautiful historical hotel

just an exceptional historic building. perfect location nothing

Beautiful, historic hotel, very friendly and attentive staff, also pretty clean and comfortable.

Great room! Accommodating staff that are so gracious. I enjoy the beauty and history of the building and all the great restaurants.

The decor, the vibe, the art, the history. All amazing. Marble and brass and velvet. Elevated yet lived in luxury. Staff super friendly to me and to my dog. Food, restaurants and spa were top notch. N/A

Incredible experience -- bucket list lived up to all the hype - magical accommodations and incredible staff!!! Legendary history, matched by incredibly layered artwork, design, and charm. The cleaning/maid staff was so great - they even brought up cookies and fresh bottles of spring water before bed!! The concierge, Tracy, was really helpful and Oscar, our server in the Café Chelsea, made my daughter's birthday breakfast a great experience.

Room was spotless when we arrived and after every cleaning. Room lights were a bit dim to be helpful at times.

Best hotel in New York

The room itself was beautiful — very clean, well-designed, and felt genuinely luxurious. Everything was comfortable and thoughtfully put together. I didn’t use all of the hotel facilities during my stay, but I was very impressed by the staff, who were consistently friendly and professional. The food and overall service were also excellent. I would definitely stay here again.

Great historic fun comfy kinda place

Great room, excellent care from the room cleaning/freshening staff. Breakfast in the Cafe was surprisingly and disappointingly mediocre for such a quality hotel. Outstanding lobby bar. Would stay again.

Always great!

Very cool historic and iconic hotel Nothing

This is not only a hotel. It is a museum of art and social history. It has the unique atmosphere of elegance and excellence.

.

Steeped in history with its own unique quirky personality in a luxurious setting. No table or chairs in our room. Even Motel 6 manages that.

Excellent place to stay while in NY with a great restaurant and very happening bar.

10/10 stay. Iconic hotel. Still has that boho/punk vibe. The staff is wonderful. The rooms are ideal. Clean, comfortable, spacious. Room service is top notch. Food is excellent. The cafe and bars cannot be beat. I can’t give it higher marks or I would.

Overall the hotel is a really interesting space, not generic luxury at all. The hotel bars, cafes, and restaurants are all really lively and feel great to spend time in. They have a real neighborhood feel. This is a 5 star hotel on a 2 star street. It's a wide street that's pretty noisy and ugly. Not much they can do about it though. To be clear, the location is fantastic for accessibility to other parts of Manhattan, but the block is unpleasant.

Beautiful renovation of an historic property, hip clientele and super friendly and helpful staff. Spacious room, windows that open. Lively and elegant bar scene. Just great atmosphere.

Excellent staff, room was outstanding and was pleasantly surprised by an upgrade. Outstanding location. This hotel met all of my expectations for the price point.

Sauna was great, building is old but beautiful. Rooms were very clean, staff were helpful. It’s very accessible to most shops, wine shop a few doors away, target was 5 minutes away, lots of places to eat and shop, you can walk to Macy’s and time square. I really enjoyed staying at this hotel and would go back.

Great hotel, very clean and comfortable. Would recommend.

Everything about this hotel is amazing. They pay attention to every last detail. Can’t recommend enough.

Gorgeous hotel, fabulous, friendly staff, delicious restaurants on site and great location.

Hotel Chelsea is one of my favorite hotels on the East Coast! I love the vibe there, it’s so warm and relaxed, and the staff are amazing. I went up during the snow Mageddon in February 2026 and stayed for a couple of nights in New York City, it is perfectly situated and as a solo traveler, I felt very safe. I have stayed here a few times now and hope to be back again. If you get snowed in, it has everything you need, great bar scene restaurant and a nice spa. Highly recommend.!

The hotel and room were beautiful. No complaints at all about the facilities. However the self serve parking is 3 blocks away. Not exactly convenient.

Terrific stay, room and staff! One of our best stays at any hotel anywhere! The Lobby Bar staff was exceptional too!

There is no better place to stay in Manhattan.

Very classy and fantastic service!

I love my Room I felt i was living a movie Ross very Kind and great service

Amazing room, lovely bar, beautiful shower

Amazing

For the price point and rating, service is uniformly terrible by snobby, dismissive staff with the exception of kind and attentive housekeeping. Spa staff and restaurant were consistently the worst offenders. The premise is beautiful. Such a shame.

Exceptional, thank you for the personal touches.

Unique and arty

The staff is always very welcoming. The hotel is beautiful and the location is perfect.

The Chelsea is one of the greatest hotels in NYC.

Jaj

An overall great experience.

Beautiful hoyel and I definitely want to come back. From the bedroom to the bathroom and amenities, everything was wonderful. Thisbis also one of the most beautiful hotels I've stayed in.

Great

Beautiful hotel, great location, and amazing staff. This is my new favorite hotel in Manhattan!

Clean room. Great staff.

Nostalgic, chic, great location, comfortable updated rooms. Highly recommend. Nevermind, don’t book so I can get a room! j/k

There’s a lot to love about the Hotel Chelsea: the spacious room, the comfortable bed, the in room nespresso machine, the location near the Whitney, Highline, Chelsea market, art galleries and public transit, the responsive staff (prior to check in, we requested a toaster be brought up to our room and it was there when we checked in) The price point is higher than similar properties but understandable given the hotel’s illustrious history!

Gorgeous historic hotel!

We stayed for our 1st wedding anniversary, and the entire stay was the best hotel experience I have ever had. From the first contact with the hotel, the service was just outstanding. On arrival, we were blown away by the interiors - beautifully restored and retaining the colourful history of the infamous hotel. The lobby cocktail bar was wonderful and we were there every night - the martinis are strong and surroundings glamorous. The bedroom was super comfortable and full of character, excellent bathroom. We are already planning a return trip!

My favorite hotel in New York

Charming old converted apartment building with rich history. Very quaint, but quirky if you don’t know what you’re getting into. The lobby is actually off putting, it almost looked like a low end 1 star hotel. When you get to the front desk, you start to see the charm. Good restaurants in the building. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Our room was tiny, but I think that was just what was available on short notice during the holiday season. The gym was also tiny, but it was also charming. In the converted attic with views of the neighborhood.

All amenities are great. Loved the spa! Highly recommend Donald for a massage.

Absolutely gorgeous hotel and wonderful room. Comfortable bed, all the amenities you could ask for. Rooftop fitness center is exquisite

Hotel Chelsea has several exceptional venues for eating/drinking. The Cafe b’fast omelette was the real thing. Dinner in the Cafe was also brilliant, …great food, good wine list and crisp service. The Lounge was buzzing for happy hour, …upscale but cozy with exceptional cocktails and great energy.

Clean Room, Great Staff, Beautiful and stunning property.

Beautiful restored hotel - nice sheets on bed, lovely bathroom

Everything is always perfect!

Cons: This is for the Petite Chelsea room. The room is small, but expected size for NY. It got no light because the only window was facing other buildings. The lighting in the room is very dim, which is part of the hotel vibe. But when combined with no natural light, it’s very dark and depressing in the room. Would not stay in one of these rooms due to that. Did walk by a bigger street facing room that had the door open and that seemed better. Room seemed clean, but it was hard to see anything close up due to the dimness to really tell. Shower was ok, couldn’t get very hot water the first day, was fine on my second day. Had shampoo with a metal cap that needed to be removed, but bathroom is so dark even with the lights on i couldn’t figure out how to open it. lol tl;dr - nice property if you like the old new york vibe, nice staff, depressing and dark room

Excellent service, the dining, the front desk, the cleaning and the gentleman at the main door were all excellent! Very convenient transportation as the hotel is between the blue and red subway lines. The hotel amenities were top notch. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Excellent hotel

Beautiful hotel and rooms. Excellent service all around. Will definitely return.

Spacious well appointed room. Quiet. Clean. Great walkable location. Service was great!

Wonderful staff , from front desk to room cleaning. Great restaurants with brilliant food.

Beautiful hotel made for a perfect trip. The restaurant choices and lobby bar were all amazing. Loved all the art hung around the hotel made it great to explore the corridors.

We love the whole experience- our favorite staycation spot

character, the permanent residents you meet on the elevator

Lighting in room could be better. Room was small-but that might have been room selection. Seems like most rooms are larger

A beautiful historic building which has been remodeled recently. The Decore

clean room

Loved everything about this. The rooms. The lobby. The restaurants and lobby bar. We were delighted to stay here!

My new favorite hotel.

Staff from the front to the middle and the back, all very personable and attentive. I’ve stayed at many great hotels in the city, Chelsea is Special. ❣️

Everything. I felt almost like I was the only one in the hotel once I entered our room, and part of a well-run establishment when I left my room. It was a truly pleasurable experience. nothing really except the nozzle in the shower was a bit hard to maneuver. tough life.

For the price, I would have loved for there to be free breakfast, but there were so many complimentary drinks and snacks in our room.

Excellent customer service

We had a great time there!

Absolutely perfect, on spec night away with my partner and dog. I’m almost holding back on a good review to keep it a secret. So…you’re welcome!

Incredible hotel! New favorite in New York!

The bed was extremely comfortable, the room was very quiet, and the bathroom was gorgeous!!

We loved the charm and artsy vibe of this hotel. Luxurious little details. Great location.

Lovely spacious and spotless room Great vibe

The room was very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

I just love staying at The Horel

It's not that difficult to get a fancy hotel suite in New York. The trick is to make one feel like home - and that what sets Hotel Chelsea apart. Had a most enjoyable stay!

Was a wonderful place to stay.

The staff is amazing. They are among the best at any hotel in which I have ever stayed.

Clean room. Very comfortable! Loved it!

Expensive but wonderful hotel. Amazing old school New York vibe and energy. Great location, and top notch amenities and staff. Would stay again 100%.

Friendly and helpful staff

Favourite hotel in NYC

excellent beautiful place and welcoming staff. really feels like a 5 star hotel and i can't wait to return!

Great room service menu. Beautiful room. And very pleasant and efficient service.

Amazing staff and beautiful artsy rooms!

The charm and authenticity is a standout. The front desk is personable. Though didn’t seem clear on emails I received on upgrades after I registered online. Felt there was a lack of thorough training.

An excellent staff with great service skills

loved the artwork and the place is hip

Great location. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great bar and lounge area. Bed and pillows super comfy and additional touches from the Hotel i.e. drinks in the room, snacks and map of the area, plug adapter, phone charger so many small touches that made this Hotel a 5/5 for us! Highly recommend and will definitely stay there again.

Loved this hotel, classic New York charm and great service. Location was fabulous as it is very walkable. Dining options and the spa on site were a treat! Highly recommend for a classic and historical stay in New York City!

Best hotel experience EVER. It was my second time to stay and the hotel and staff are above and beyond AMAZING!!!

We had a great stay at the Hotel Chelsea. The hotel is super charming and they gave us a complimentary upgrade and a bottle of wine on account of us celebrating our anniversary. It was definitely a splurge for us, but worth it!

Room and furnishings are eclectic and well designed, good products. Bathroom needs magnifying mirror and better light

Towels were hung right by the toilet

Clean room, wonderful location and great spa.

The vibe, scenery and bars at the hotel are great. The gym/spa are small but very nice. - There was a tenant living in the room across the hall (older lady) that would cook every day/afternoon and open the door to the hallway so her appartment could clear out, the whole hallway and our room would smell of her cooking which wasn't great. - as we checked in into our paid 'upgraded/king bed/high floor' room it smelled like an ashtray. We requested another room as it was not pleasant. - They moved us to a room in the 1st floor, super noisy, impossible to rest and sleep as all the noise from the busy 23rd street and cleaning crews, trashcans, etc. - don't get a balcony room unless you smoke, it's totally useless.

room size was just ok

Beautiful historic hotel that's been tastefully renovated and styled. Amazing rooms, lovely staff and an ideal location for exploring Manhattan

The hotel is the coolest with great dining options, but above all is the stuff.

The intricacy of the rooms and hospitality of the staff was exceptional.

Wonderful staff, amazing food, great amenities

No complaints. Bottled water and macaroons with turndown service.

The renovated areas still feel historic, the bohemian history and legendary residents haunt the halls. A couples trip to see nine inch nails and visit the city. We quickly felt atvhome by the hospitality of the lobby bar and the historic original bar tenders. The room was cozy, the bed was huge and comfortable the shower was great. Its a great hotel. Quality food and cocktails friendly staff. I will be staying again.

All staff are kind and welcoming. Great stay

Absolutely love it, this is truly the best hotel in New York, we have an amazing room and the restaurant downstairs and the whole thing is just fantastic

Coming back here asap

The following morning, I walked past the front desk where two guest service agents were present. Neither of them acknowledged me with a greeting. The only person who wished me “good morning” was the doorman as I exited and re-entered the property. Later that day, when I returned and stood near the elevator, the same two guest service agents again did not acknowledge me. When I placed my bag in storage upon my return, the guest service agent initially attempted to find a doorman to assist, but when none was available, she personally handled the task. I appreciated her effort, but I believe it highlights an inconsistency in the level of service the hotel strives to provide.

Inimical style and character in decor. Bathrooms are sublime. Staff friendly and accommodating.

This is an excellent hotel. The rooms, staff, dining options & ambiance of the public spaces were fabulous. The hotel, which is loaded with a fascinating history, is like an art gallery. I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like it in a hotel format before. The rooms themselves are also unique and full of character. It felt as though you were in your own apartment. There was nothing generic about this experience. The hotel is also made up of rooms that are available for guests of the hotel, combined with rooms that are occupied by permanent residents who you are quite likely to encounter during your stay. Many of them are very interesting & accomplished people. This added another unique twist to the experience. I would highly recommend this hotel.

The incredible history of this hotel is what made us want to stay here. The updates and renovations have been done so well, the restaurants are incredible and the staff were - to a one - the friendliest and most helpful we’ve worked with outside of a Disney property. We’d go back to the city just to stay here again.

The Hotel Chelsea delivers in style, elegance, quality of accommodations, and service; it is a premier hotel in a world class city and you can’t beat the style and comfort/cool level. Historical, modern, punk, elegant, irreverent, classy; high dialectics. Can’t go wrong. Home away from home.

Fabulously whimsical, sensual decor, every doorknob an light fixtures, luxurious bedd

Details!!!

Fantastic property, they don’t miss the details.

This place is one of the best in NYC NOW. Has a rich history, but is fantastic in all the important ways. Rooms are clean and have a great vibe. 2 fantastic dining options on the property and the hotel bar is great for after dinner meetings. Can’t say enough about it. Was here for 4 nights and will make this my NYC HQ!

The place to stay in NYC NOW. Yes, rich history blah blah blah. Great rooms! Clean! Spacious. Great staff! Cool small gym on the roof. Both dining options on the property are fantastic and the hotel bar is incredible for after dinner meetings. My new HQ for NYC

Loved the iconic Hotel Chelsea! It is beautiful, classy but also laid back and comfortable. We arrived around 11am expecting to store our luggage for a few hours. To our surprise they had our room ready, and even upgraded us! Everything was perfect and it is now our favorite place to stay in NY!

It was great

Every finish was meticulous. The most beautiful hotel ever.

The history behind the hotel is so cool. William, the bellhop was so knowledgeable. I wish there was a formal tour as part of the check in service and that William had a whole staff under him to help lift up the historical aspect of the hotel. I could have spent much more time talking and wish I didn't feel like I was interrupting him from doing his job. Its so important to preserve the history of New York and all the art, music and poetry that happened in this hotel. It seemed like he has a passion to do this and I feel you should give him the platform to do it!!!! William made my stay there exceptional!

Nice old New York hotel, well maintained and upgraded. Iconic.

Location was great, staff was very helpful and super nice! Appreciated the chance to stay in this hotel with such a unique history. The room was beautiful. All in all a great experience!

It's a different world at Hotel Chelsea. The attention to detail is obvious, from design to amenities. The staff has mastered the most difficult part of hospitality which is always to give the right answer while striking the right tone. Things are taken care of effortlessly and with pride.

Having the restaurant downstairs is terrific. The rooms are a little dark. Rooms are huge. Bathtub situation is over the top- huge soaking tubs. Bed is super comfortable. Loved my stay. Arrived with a 911 technology emergency and the staff handled everything. Great location for high line and galleries on 23rd.

Excellent dining options, great rooms with comfortable beds and superb customer service

Loved the charm of the hotel and the rooms were super cute. The front desk staff left a lot to be desired. After checking in, there was never an instance where they even said hello when arriving back or even passing by to leave. Usually stay at the Dominick in soho and will likely return there. It was a cute place but the hospitality fell flat in that regard.

Amazing stay at an iconic hotel.

Favorite hotel to stay in NYC. I enjoy staying in the Chelsea neighborhood so this is the perfect hotel. The rooms are stunning. The Lobby Bar and Cafe Chelsea are both incredible options for drinks/food. Staying here feels like coming home.

Unique, historic, comfortable

Above expectations in every possible way. I was absolutely blown away by all, and I mean all aspects of this amazing vernerated establishment. From start to finish of my husband's and I's 7-night stay, in celebration of our anniversary, in a Chelsea Suite in July 2025, left me saying 'Wow, I am truly sad to be leaving such a wonderful place, but I am so excited at the prospect of returning!' Service from the doormen, front desk, and housekeeping was top-notch - with attention to detail that sets it apart from other five-star hotels that we've stayed at in North America. So many of the amenities were lux and much appreciated - complimentary wine and handwritten note in acknowledgement of our anniversary, turndown water and treats, wide range of toiletries, lush bathrobes and branded slippers, wonderfully soft bedding/linens/towels, and all the provisions necessary for using the dishwasher, washing machine, and cooking in the gas-range kitchen equipped with high-end cookware, utensils dishware, and full-size fridge/freezer. The furniture and all the finishing in the suite were so luxurious with a feel of timelessness, and the view of the city skyline including One World Trade was spectacular at any time of day. The surrounding area was super convenient for groceries and eating-out to fit a variety of budgets and tastes, as well as easy access to several subway and bus lines, and a major transit hub, NY Penn station. Like I said, above expectations! Can't wait to return soon.

The Hotel Chelsea is sublime, with its rich history and well appointed decor. I was extremely well taken care of by the wonderful staff. It is now my new favorite place to stay in NYC.

This is a beautiful property. Lots of detail in the decor and amenities. Staff were exceptional.

Would highly recommend. The service, the aesthetic, the history. Can’t wait to go back!!

I love Hotel Chelsea! I travel for work and brought my teens (so much cultural history to pique their attention). It's so chic and historic, yet modern with a real soul. Highly recommended. Even the curated neighborhood guide is worth the price of the stay!

Great historical hotel . The new Restaurants are fantastic.

Amazing hotel, great rooms, staff and history!

What a great hotel!! The location is perfect and the rooms are fabulous. The staff is so warm and friendly. Dominic brought all 7 of our suitcases up without a cart in one try which was amazing to see and his personality was so warm and welcoming Joanna at the from. Desk has super powers finding us Reservations and always a beautiful smile on her face. I loved our stay and we will come back to this place again.

Looking forward to coming back …

Wonderful hotel with an amazing history.

We love staying at the Chelsea when we come into the city. We have stayed elsewhere and regretted it! Chelsea is our go to hotel in NYC!

Went for a show and a weekend to comfort my daughter after our dog died. It was well beyond expectations in terms of service and ambience and surroundings. It’s like a museum- the art si beautifully placed and curated and whoever designed the refurbishing is a genius.

The Hotel Chelsea provides a relaxed luxury experience that feels like a home away from home (only better.) Every staff member (especially front desk staff - hugely accommodating) was warm and friendly. The property itself is iconic - like staying in a museum, and I cannot recommend the bar enough. Will be back soon.

We dined in the cafe every morning and the food was wonderful but service was spotty. All three mornings our service began well and slowly tapered off until at the end we had to search for someone to give us our final bill. We visited the lobby bar several times and service was very good most of the time. One evening, after seeing a show we went to the lobby bar for drinks and some food. After being seated, our server proceeded to take care of everyone around us and completely ignore us. Twice I had to find someone else to help with things like napkins, water…basics. The room was lovely and quite comfortable, but the pillows are not. My neck was so unhappy by the end of the stay that I bought a vacuum bag set so I’ll never have to travel without my own pillow again! In spite of these few negatives, we had a lovely time and would absolutely return here.

Hotel is amazing. Kept the amazing charm and history yet totally updated it. Very warm and comfortable. Balcony was a nice feature .

Exquisite, memorable, must return

It was a fantastic experience, traveled with my 4 month old baby and they were extremely happy and friendly, everything about our stay was positive and I would highly recommend to anyone visiting, lovely, chic, comfortable and historic! Great stay thank you to all the staff!

My favorite hotel in NYC, it’s a vibe, celebs everywhere and super friendly staff, suites are amazing!!!

Beautiful hotel, great amenities at the spa. A very nice place to stay.

Everything from the amazing staff, the history, and the beautiful architecture, made this stay so special. I have already booked my next stay for my daughter’s birthday in October.

Beautifully restored iconic property centrally located in Chelsea.

Just had a long 3 day weekend at HC and we enjoyed it. We had the grand Chelsea king room which made it more similar to a normal hotel room elsewhere. The balcony was nice. The room had a lot of charm and style. The hotel bar was nice, but expensive even for nyc. Very walkable to flatiron / 5th avenue shopping. Would stay here again.

This is my favorite hotel in New York. The rooms are gorgeous, the bar has great drinks, it's convenient to the subway among endless other places. This past trip was the first time I've returned to the same hotel in New York and it did not disappoint. Such a special place.

5 million stars. Absolutely gorgeous and all the staff I encountered were absolutely fabulous.

Beautiful 2-bedroom hotel suite! Gorgeous property. I can’t wait to return.

It was amazing

Incredible. Great bed and sheets and the architect and art are incredible. A complete treat and experience

Just Beautiful Amazing Experience

An amazing property with great personality

super exceptionally clean comfortable hotel with fabulous food every amenity and the best service for the price and area - a top choice

Iconic. Gorgeous. A must do!

Wonderful, spacious suite. Perfect or family gatherings for birthday and graduation, as well as just chillin'

Definitely staying here again when in NYC.

This is our fourth time staying at the Hotel Chelsea and they once again blew our socks off. The room was the most beautiful space I have ever been in. Complete with an Olympic size tub where you can watch TV in. The hotel is so good its makes it hard to leave. We look forward to ending everyday in their beautiful Lobby Bar for the most perfect nightcap and attentive staff.

Top of the line service and facilities.

.

My go to when in NYC

I’ve always wanted to stay here; and rounded out my honeymoon with an overnight at the Chelsea! The service was STELLAR, we were given an upgrade for the occasion, a handwritten card, and a little gift from the hotel. In addition- my husband left his bag in a taxi (not an uber) which seemed like a needle in a haystack to try to track down. The front desk crew gave us swift assistance and tips and we were able to track down the driver (and backpack)! The room was CHOICE, wonderful attention to detail, super lush and comfortable, and the bath was heavenly. I would stay here all the time if I could afford it! I mainly took a video of the room which unfortunately can’t upload, but sharing a couple stills I took here.

This was such a unique property! The lobby and bar are a must!

A wonderfully eclectic hotel with phenomenal history and architecture. The service is great and all the personnel there were exceedingly friendly and helpful.

Cutest hotel ever!!

Awesome historical hotel!

Incredible hotel! Everything about it was perfection -- the design, the staff, the food, the location. Can't wait to stay here again!

SIMPLY YHE BEST

The best

One of the best hotel experiences we’ve ever had.

Excellent service! Bar is very cool.

Everything about our stay here was perfect! Can’t wait to go back!

Great staff and beautiful hotel with rich history. Our room was taking awhile to be ready so the front desk offered us an upgrade :)

Love the food. Great team and ai live the history. My 4th stay in a year!

This is our second time staying at this hotel. Loved our room, we were upgraded as we checked in. Dining options are wonderful. The bar is fun, delicious drinks and great people watching. Looking forward to our next stay.

Great looking historic property. I loved the well - maintained room. I really loved the French restaurant in the main floor - which was delicious and comfortable.

This was a 50th birthday gift for me & it far exceeded my wildest dreams. The designers not only nailed the aesthetic, they honored its personality down to the very last details. I have never stayed anywhere where every single employee from the front desk, to the housekeepers, the servers & one of my new favorite humans, Sadie, the hostess at El Quijote LOVED their job & were visibly & palpably honored to be there. It was a joy to experience. My other new favorite human, however is one of your doormen, William Benton who is much more a hotel ambassador, docent & I would even say greatest value add within the Chelsea. One of the very reasons I booked my stay was b/c I'd been made aware of his tours and it was not only the highlight of my stay, but the highlight of my week long trip in the Big Apple. William's knowledge of and passion for the Chelsea was breathtaking. There was no question I had he couldn't answer, no stones left unturned. As someone who's studied this hotel from afar for years, I was mind blown at all I DIDN'T know but gleaned. Because of William, we were able to see every floor roof to lobby & become acquainted with the soul of this space. There is no better person imaginable to guide that tour & as someone who intends to return year after year & refer numerous friends as well, my great hope would be that the Chelsea makes keeping William & this sacred tour a priority. Publicizing the tour a bit would be a huge draw to future guests & locals alike.

Perfect

Excellent service, very cool, artsy, luxury vibe but with a little grit. We stayed in a suite which had incredible amenities and space, like. luxury apartment. But, the sofa was dingy and a little gross, and we had to pay extra for a cot because it was not a sofa bed. The kitchen and bath had phenomenal fixtures and appliances. The balcony was a wonderful surprise. It was a little noisy outside at times, but it’s new york so nothing unexpected. Service was super friendly. Parking was a little far away and required arguing with the attendant to get the deal the hotel coupon indicated. This is a 5-star review in many ways, but with a few nits that travelers may want to be aware of that took it down to 4 stars for my review.

Best hotel in NYC

loved the room and hotel. classic old new york. the area of chelsea has deteriorated a bit and felt a little unsafe at night with some unstable people. i have lived in chelsea in the past and it was a lot more than i used to experience

We will return. Art and nostalgia.

The Hotel Chelsea is fantastic. The renovations have brought an icon of art and creativity to everyone. The staff are excellent and attentive and the restaurant and cafe are worth a few visits. Highly recommended.

Unique property very cool and bohemian. My new favorite hotel in NYC! Service is outstanding. Highly recommend!

The rooms are like small apartments!

Hotel has a storied past and it’s lovely it’s come back to life under such great renovation. The lobby is vibey and warm, the rooms incredibly spacious, beautifully furnished with luxuriously comfy beds, the bars and restaurants cozy and stylish. The bathrooms are pretty cool but way too damn dark. Forget seeing your m-up. Lamps, ceiling fixtures and fabrics all great, some sweet attn to detail. Art super questionable if not downright ugly. Now here’s my honest rundown: the place is upscale, poshly done and very hip. The lobby and central stairwell are dark and a little claustrophobic and the area around the hotel not very picturesque. So if you’re super hip and must be with the painfully hip people of Chelsea you’ll love this hotel - the nicest of the hip joints in the hood and with truly crazy fantastic beds and wonderful staff. If however like me you like luxurious interiors, bright lobby and upscale neighborhood head to Park Lane or at least Midtown. After 3 days at the Chelsea I was desperate to get out and catch my breath somewhere more fab.

Gorgeous, comfortable hotel. The restaurant is very delicious. New go to in NYC.

The Hotel Chelsea was fantastic. Cool old building with lots of history. Rooms keep the charm of a historic hotel, but upgraded and updated to provide the comfortable conveniences a luxury hotel should offer. Our room was incredibly quiet. You would never know you were in NYC. We'll be back.

Probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in. It’s stunning and has been renovated sensitively, preserving many of the original features. Plus it’s steeped in so much cultural history! Nearly cried when I had to leave!

Wonderful hotel with beautiful interiors and fascinating history two very good restaurants excellent location short walk to two subway lines and easy walk to Penn Station

We loved the hotel. We were having trouble with the toilet. So we let them know. 2 hours later we returned to our room with no water and a toilet laying on the ground. It was supposed to be a staycation for my daughter. We ended up just spending the day at her house so we could use water and take showers. They did credit me $50 on a $500 room and changed rooms for me when I got back that night, but I was by myself and left early in the morning. Was kind of disappointed I spent that kind of money and really didn't get to enjoy it with my daughter.
