Chelsea Hotel Guide

Take a trip to Chelsea, New York, and immerse yourself in the fascinating art scene of this neighborhood. First developed in the 1750s, the area was initially devoted to industry, and some of the original warehouses still remain. Developing as a residential space in the early 1800s, Chelsea became a haven for the gay community in the 1970s, and is now a truly cosmopolitan section of Manhattan. Staying at one of the hotels in Chelsea lets you explore this intriguing neighborhood.

Visiting Chelsea

Locals say the best way to get to Chelsea is to fly into Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). Travel from EWR on the AirTrain, going via Newark Penn Station and toward the World Trade Center; the entire journey takes just over an hour. Cheap car rentals in Chelsea are plentiful, so if you're using Chelsea as your base, this a good option. Choose from a variety of Chelsea hotels and book in for your stay, unless you prefer one of the cheap hotels in New York City. Get an extraordinary overview of Chelsea from the High Line, an abandoned elevated railway line that has been turned into a public park. Stroll along the walkways, sit and enjoy views of the city, and take exits to ground level at Gansevoort Street or West 14th to 28th Streets. Take a taste tour at Chelsea Market, where a whole city block that contained a biscuit factory is now a giant food hall. Get your fill of dance, drama, and comedy at the Joyce Theater and the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, where you'll see international and local artists perform. As well as offering cheap hotels near Chelsea, this neighborhood is regarded as the center of the art world of NYC.

Hyatt Grand Central New York

4 out of 5

Travelocity Verified Review

"Spent 4 nights at Hyatt Grand Central. It is conveniently located and sits right next door to Grand Central Terminal. If you plan to use public transit, this hotel is the one for you. You can walk to the shops on 5th Ave, St Patrick’s Cathedral, Rockefeller Plaza, and even Central Park if your feet allow you to. About the hotel itself…. Well I have to say, it’s an old hotel and seems like all the updating was done in the lobby, cause it’s a really nice lobby. The rooms itself are old. Mine smelled a little like mildew even after I sprayed Lysol. The bathroom really small especially the sink. Some of the wall paper peeling off on top of the doorway in the bathroom because of all the condensation from the steam when you shower. The reading lights by the bed were not working and falling apart. But again you’re there to sleep and shower only. And from what I hear, all the hotels are old there. The only thing this hotel has going is the location."
