Hotel Chelsea

15 Best Luxury and Boutique Hotels in New York City - AFAR

"A storied cultural institution reimagined for a new generation, this historic property has housed writers, artists, and musicians for more than a century and now offers 155 guestrooms from studios to two-bedroom suites with full kitchens. Individual rooms vary widely—some with wrought-iron balconies, fireplaces, or stained-glass details—while unifying touches like an inlaid monogram and Marshall-style Bluetooth speakers nod to its creative past. Public life centers on a Gilded Age–inspired lobby bar with classic hotel cocktails, alongside revived dining staples including a long-standing Spanish restaurant and a French-American café serving traditional favorites." - Jennifer Flowers
