Remember, at these low prices, you will not get a 5 star experience, but then again, you wouldn't be reading this if you wanted a 5 star New York Hotel. First, extraordinary location, walk to LOTS of places, including several subway options. Walk to Union Square which is always amazing. Second, I always feel safe in the area and on... More

The enticing aspect of this hotel is the price, it's really hard to find great rates in this area of NYC. I enjoyed my stay here on several occasions and found it to be warm and homey. The area is safe and the building is secure. The location is just perfect, close to everywhere you want to go in Manhattan.... More

My fiance just got back from a trip to NYC with his best friend and his girlfriend. We stayed at the Chelsea Inn because of it's location, which really was good. The hotel is dated but clean. We'd been told when the reservation was made that we'd be in adjoining rooms which was definitely preferable as the two rooms share... More

I stayed for three nights last summer, in a small single room for $99/night. That is unheard of in NYC, unless you are at a youth hostel. My room was small (indeed, a single bed) with a shared bath with another room. I was on the third floor and there isn't an elevator. Overall, I was very pleased with the... More

Excellent location though this inn is a trip down memory lane with facilities and decor that are quite aged if not decrepit. At $150 a nite it is not too bad for Manhattan but there are a couple of things that could be effective learning experiences for the hotel. 1st it is isn't what you would expect- desk cover is...

I stayed for just over a week in a 3rd floor room at the front of the building. The staff were friendly. The room was incredibly warm and the window wouldn't stay open. The decor is awful. The breakfast is okay, but those serving you are not exactly friendly. The only real plus was that I didn't see any cockroaches.... More

I stayed 5 nights at the Chelsea Inn. The staff were magnificant, the rooms were clean and quirky, the location however, is what made it. Near enough to walk to everything, close to the subway, and some fun little diners, shops and iconic places like the empire state building, battery park, alphabet city, the village etc etc. For all their...

I was in NYC twice in 3 weeks for a business trip, stayed both time in here. *Location* It is a really convenient location not far from the Subway (it took me 20 min door to door to be in Century 21). Union square is also not far. There is enough restaurants and market around to satisfy all the needs... More

Compared with other hotels in New York, the price is acceptable and the location is good. We can get to the subway around 3-5 minutes and it is very close to the fifth avenue. The staff is quite friendly, but the reception is not opened for 24 hours and it will close at the night time. There is a time... More
