Hated this establishment. It was out dated, dirty and just all around not a good vibe. They are making it so difficult to refund me after I did not even stay at their establishment. I checked in and checked right back out a few minutes later after viewing the dirty room. I do not recommend this place.

Hot water was an issue because “they only have 1 boiler” I heared coughs from another room during night BUT wasn’t anything too bothersome. The tv picture wasn’t sharp. The room with two beds are very small but made it work bc it was ONLY for not even 24hrs. Wasn’t filthy. Location is good for finding food or recreation. Would I go back if needed, yes.

We were able to check in early and get our luggage kept at the front desk before our room was ready. Great, courteous staff and smiling greetings from the Havana Vieja restaurant, which is the entrance to the hotel lobby, to the retro/deco bar and front desk. Room was clean and had comfortable beds... considering we had our adult boys with us sharing 2 double beds for an overnight stay. Beach towels were available and only 3 short blocks to ocean drive. We definitely recommend Hotel Chelsea!

As a returning traveler to Miami for Art Basel and a returning guest at Hotel Chelsea, I would have to rate my stay at the hotel as EXCELLENT! The centralized location can't be beat, the food at the attached restaurant is excellent, and the Management and staff are friendly, welcoming and accommodating! Many thanks to the hotel's Manager Zaira, and the wonderful Luis and the helpful Eric at the front desk! I can't wait to stay at the Hotel Chelsea again and I would highly recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family!!! C. Wilkinson

Cleanliness definitely a 1 star, we called down to the front desk to tell them our sheets were dirty and they told us they would deal with it in the morning. The floors were so sticky our shoes were sticking to the floors. Beds were hard as a rock I’ll never recommend this place to my clients.

While this place is in the center of everything and a few blocks from the beach… it’s a hole. Floors are wildly slanted, soft spots in some areas that make you think maybe you’ll fall through. Elevator is the most terrifying thing. The smell of mildew and mold hit you like a ton of bricks the moment you walk through the doors from the cute restaurant front they have. Let’s start there… walked in and was greeted by a nice gentlemen and the scent of mildew and humidity covered window panes - who then answered a call about blood on the sheets - he reassured me many times it was make up; the staff “takes their jobs very seriously about cleanliness”. I chuckled and thought oh my - what have I signed myself up for? I get my card key and room number. I go up, neither key works, door doesn’t even have power to it. I go down, reassigned room. I go up, filthy. Mysterious smudges on sheets so we head back down. Once again given keys to the room where the door isn’t working and instructions that maybe I was swiping the key wrong… nope. He comes up, nothing. We go back down. Reassigned AGAIN. At this point I should have taken the sign but it was so late getting a room anywhere else would have been impossible. Finally in a room, sheets - passable but refused to sleep in them just on the comforter. The beds are old, uncomfortable and every spring makes the comical boing sound. 3 nights of this hell - looking back the best part was the restaurant out front. 2/10 don’t do it.
