Recent Hotel Chelsea Review: "My stay at the Hotel Chelsea exceeded my expectations. The staff was friendly and knowlegdable. The rooms were beautiful, glamorous and comfortable. (I was there with a group and we had 3 rooms between us.) The lobby and stairwell were full of beautiful art, paintings and sculpture, and lovely furnishings, marble floors and woodwork.
My room, 105, had a fireplace with a large gilded mirror above it, high ceilings, window seats, its own foyer with a marble topped table, wood floors, a pretty carpet, stylish curtains and bedspread. The bathroom had new looking mosaic sage green tile and white fixtures. Everything was clean and nice.
(The only thing that wasn't tip top was the woodwork, which was layered with paint and sometimes a little bit chipped or grimy around the doorknobs. Minor issue for me!)
It fronted on 23rd St and we had a balcony to go out on and admire the street view.
Another party of our group had room 325. They had French doors out to their balcony which was right next to the big hotel sign. One of the door had a stained glass panel at the top. Everything in their room was also clean. Curtains, rods and bedspreads seemed new and fashionable in both rooms.
All 3 rms also had tiled kitchenettes and large closets. The hotel hallways were paved with marble!
The friendly doorman, when told that we'd come to NY to see Eddie Izzard perform (British actor/comedian), informed us Eddie lived in Rm 325 when he was there with his standup act, and also filming Velvet Goldmine in 1998. That was a big thrill for us.
The stairwell, which is 10 floors, was probably the best part of the hotel. Take the elevator up to the top where there is a skylight and walk down. Bring your camera. The railings are wrought iron and there are beautiful paintings on all the walls, and many more on the hallway walls as well. Amazing!
The location of the Chelsea is great too, convenient to all parts of Manhattan. We took the nearby subway or walked to get around town.
I'd go b"

| A short guide to Chelsea - East and West Villages |

Washington Square, surrounded by NYU, divides the Villages. On one side, Greenwich and West villages lure writers and artists with its bohemian ethos, best experienced at a coffeehouse or jazz bar. The other side—the ethnically mixed East Village—is known for live music. For its string of nightclubs, Chelsea’s West 27th Street is known as Club Row. Chelsea is also the city’s main gay neighborhood.
