Very good hotel in great neighborhood

Loved how friendly the staff was. They really do their best to make you feel comfortable. The place is kept clean. My only dislike was, how noisy it can be outside! They do provide you with ear plugs. This is my second stay there. The first time, I didn't use the ear plugs. This time around I did and it made quite a difference. But I would certainly stay there again for the convenience to many of the places I need to be when in NYC, and because the staff is nice. I also love the breakfast at Nana's Kitchen.

Ok Place to Stay

The rooms are clean, the location is nice. Overall I enjoyed my stay and felt pretty comfortable. The only complain would be the noise coming in from the street at night. It was a little annoying.

An inexpensive room in NYC that more than serves it purpose

If you are looking for a clean place to lay your tired head after a day in NYC without paying a fortune then the Chelsea Inn is for you. If you are looking for the NY glam experience then stay away from the Chelsea Inn. There are some rooms with private baths and some with semiprivate baths (shared by two rooms in a hall accessible to ONLY those two rooms). Be prepared as there is not an elevator but you've been walking all day so what's a few more steps to a good night's sleep? This Inn is quirky and cool - the building was built around 1890 and has been mildly updated over the years. All of the original moldings are there and as are the original staircases - they lean a little which is to be expected from a building of this age. Good and solid without and squeeks and in the stairs or floors. Of course, I like architecture and older buildings so I find this stuff interesting and fun. As for those who complained about the bar next door making too much noise if you are on the front of the building - it's no worse than any other hotel room I've had in NYC that I paid at least twice this amount for. This is NYC - the city that doesn't sleep so there's always somebody making noise in the streets partying or working (restaurants and retailers stock up in the late and early hours). If you're looking for a high-style NYC hotel with white gloves then stay on 5th Ave near Central Park. If you're looking for the NYC experience with rooms that are like most NYC apts I've been to then stay at the Chelsea.

Very good hotel for the price

Everything was wonderful about this hotel: friendly, helpful staff, clean, great neighborhood. My only negative experiences were: the bed was too soft, and although provided with ear plugs, I did find the street noisy outside, but in spite of all that, I would still stay there again and would recommend it. For the very inexpensive price, I also got a wonderful continental breakfast. Great deal!

Good value

As long as you're OK with a basic hotel room, Chelsea Inn is a great deal for the money. The neighborhood is great and trains are convenient.

Simple but great

Chelsea Inn is a small european style hotel very clean and in a very great neighborhood and location. Several excellent restaurants in the block. One half block to 5th Ave. Safe and clean.

Fabulous

I stayed in this in for fashion week and it was great. Clean and close to everything. I liked the privacy and felt more comfortable than a cold chain hotel.The front desk and night person were very acomidating!!

Better be physically fit

The hotel has 5 floors and no elevator. Unfortunately my room was on the 5th floor and around floor 3 I started to get a little winded.

Most Adorable Hotel Ever!

not only is the location of this hotel perfect, but it completely follows suit with the mood of Chelsea. the beautiful old building and the decor are completely charming, and the bakery downstairs and the cafe nextdoor are perfect additions. the hotels gived complementary breakfast from the bakery (try the muffins, they're life-changing!). i loved my stay there and can't wait to return. highly reccommended!
