The Chelsea Pines is a fun boutique hotel seemingly built on the bones of an old-fashioned NYC SRO. This means a solidly-built pre-war building; it also means smallish rooms (at least in the case of my single) and no elevator. The inn more than makes up for these shortcomings in furnishings, service, and amenities. The entire hotel has an Old... More

If you want to feel part of NYC, stay here. It was like staying with friends of friends; nothing was too much trouble but you could feel relaxed and comfortable just going about your business. The staff were brilliant - Anna and Rumel were particularly helpful and friendly. We had a small housekeeping incident which was quickly resolved and some... More

Don't get me wrong.The staff were very friendly.But that doesn't make up for the quality of the hotel. My wife and I stayed for 3 days recently. We are both 60 years old and they put us on the fourth floor and with no lift that left us exhausted. The room (Kim Novak.. All rooms are named after movie stars)... More

Just returned June 7 from spending 10 lovely days at the Chelsea Pines Inn. We can't begin to say enough about everything: all the boxes ticked above deserve a "superior" or "gold medal!" We have rated the "restaurant" because even though it is limited to a superb breakfast and tasty snacks during the day, it doesn't serve lunch (who could... More

I won't do a long review of this wonderful hotel, as I have already reviewed it twice (and you can look at those reviews). But, I will say that my husband and I have begun to look at Chelsea Pines Inn and Jay, Troy, Al, Rumel, and everyone there, as family. It is truly like going back home when we... More

My husband Scott and I stayed at the fabulous Chelsea Pines for 8 nights in May 2013. We were so incredibly fortunate that our very first experience of NY was at Chelsea Pines, as it is a lovely hotel full of the most genuine people. Everything that has already been said on TripAdvisor is true - spotlessly clean, the rooms... More

Both my sister and I had the BEST time at this inn. Warm, caring, thoughtful, friendly, charming, manicured, tasteful, artistic and enchanting are just a few of the words I would use to describe my very comfortable stay in this space. The staff there is fabulous. Class, consideration, and even a loaner umbrella were all made available to us. Breakfast... More

Jay and his staff could not have been more helpful. This hotel ticks all the boxes and is in a great location . Quiet rooms with good aircon and large comfy beds so be problems sleeping . Also great continental breakfasts . Would strongly recommend

I took my wife for her surprise 30th and stayed at Chelsea pine inns. Great location and staff were so helpful. I can see why this hotel is ranked so high. Breakfast is plentiful and enough to fill you up before you go out for the day. I would never stay anywhere else if, or should I say when I... More
