Fits the bill
The best thing about the Chelsea hotel is its location to the Highline. It’s very basic, inexpensive, and does the job. Just be aware that they are very narrow stairs and no elevator.

The chain lock on our door was broken and the email stating our room number was poorly described which caused us confusion but after a quick phone call with the hotel we got it figured out. There is no elevator so get ready to carry your stuff up. Overall though it was a good stay, adjustable AC and a safe place to stay for a night.

Small room, great location
Very nice accommodations at the top of a fifth floor walk up. Room and bathroom looked recently updated. Great neighborhood to stay in. No elevator, so worked well for an overnight stay requiring a small backpack. Check-in worked fine, received codes for front door and room the day before.

Room was very small and tight. Their was no elevator to the hotel and we had to go up 5 stairs with our luggage. It’s was inconvenient and exhausting especially if you have to go to your room multiple times a day. Also, we had a shared bathroom which we were not made aware when we booked the room. They should make it more clear/communicate when making reservations. Theirs also no daily housekeeping if you need your room cleaned theirs an additional $35 cleaning fee.

Small, but clean and inviting. My only minor complaint is that the bed looked so much more comfortable than it was. I was pleasantly surprised there was a mini fridge in the room and it was quieter than I expected based on others reviews. Also, the air conditioning was fantastic! Honestly perfect for a one night stay!

Stayed for the first time July 2023. The Chelsea inn offered a quiet respite at the end of busy days filled with meetings and workshops. Stayed on 4th floor on the opposite side of the entrance. The hotel is seperated in two. All amentities worked wifi, TV and A/C. I was aware there were no elevators and the hotel is basically a self serve hotel with online check in and check out and no room service/cleaning. This year July 2024 we stayed on the 2nd floor right above the entrance and on the same side as the reception. While I was grateful for less stairs then the previous year, the noise prevented me from having a good night sleep. I'd wake up several times a night from guests entering and exiting the hotel, the conversations had by staff at reception in the morning, there were guests for several days that had conversations we could hear between 2am to 4am or maybe it was overnight staff with conversations on speaker phone (not sure) and garbage collection on the street which occured Mon through wednesday between 11pm to 2am. The noises were as clear in our room as if we had the windows and doors open. The TVs did not work for most of our stay. We arrived on monday to stay for 1 week and they started working saturday. The wifi was also spotty so we hotspotted from our phones to our laptops. Overall a dissapionting stay compared to our 2023 visit. The hotel has a great location, close to shops, Union Square and has a fridge and microwave and overall cleanliness is good.

Quaint Inn with old NYC vibe.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Chelsea Inn. The room was smaller than pictured but adequate for two. We had a room with a private bath. We checked in at 11pm and it was smooth. The TV had no signal but they fixed it the next morning. No elevator so be prepared to walk and lug baggage up the stairs. A quaint hidden gem of an inn that gives the NYC vibe.

Staff was great.
Both the front desk persons Vilma and Elain were very good and helpful. I remember because they understood my needs as a senior and changed the room from the third floor to second floor and the day of check-out held my baggage until I collected late around 3.30 PM
