Stayed 4 nights in a Parlour Suite, having seen a recommendation in the UK Sunday Telegraph. The location was very convenient for the subway, nearby shops and restaurants and a few blocks away from 5th Avenue and the Empire State Building. The suite took the form of a spacious room, adjacent to the street, which had been sub-divided to include... More

A nice place in the heart of Chelsea. The hotel is in a nice three floors building in a quiet street. The rooms are very small and do not have toilet but only the sink and the shower. I agree with the reviews talking about a non satisfying sleep quality of the room: the bed is not particularly big and... More

We have mixed reviews about our stay at Chelsea Lodge. I knew what to expect but my partner was very underwhelmed when we arrived and saw our room It was tiny with a double bed, no toilet (as I already knew) and a shower in our room. During the night we were both very hot and uncomfortable, there was no... More

We stayed 4 nights in Chelsea Lodge during winter. Reservations were made through their website, 5 months in advance. Location: Nondescript brownstone building in a tree-lined neighborhood, with a local NY feel to staying here. There are no signs for the lodge so just trust that you got the right address - "318" is on the right side of the... More

We stayed here for 4 nights whilst visiting NYC for the first time. Yes, the rooms are small. Yes, the toilets are shared. But it didn't matter. We were out exploring the city all day and night, simply returning here to sleep and shower in the morning. The location in Chelsea is brilliant - close to Chelsea Market and The... More

I was in NYC for just 4 nights, and wanted something cheap but with a good location within Manhattan. After a thourough research here and in guide books I found out about Chelsea Lodge. I got the room with no WC, just shower and basin. The room was small, as I already expected. Wsuitcases, one big and another mid sized,... More

Chelsea Lodge is located within walking distance of Penn Station, which is one of the main reasons I chose it. A good pick indeed, as I was able to get out and about to everything I wanted to see with ease. The rooms are small, so I don't think you would want to stay longer than a few nights, but... More

Stayed 3 nights and although it was conveniently located and we loved the location the bed was as hard as a rock and the shared toilet stank of urine and I had to clean it myself a few times. We stayed on the ground floor. Wouldn't recommend it. More

I stayed at the Chealsea Lodge last October 2010 and enjoyed my stay. The lodge has plently of character and it is clear that alot of thought has gone into the vintage style of decoration. As a single female from England travelling alone to meet friends in New York I felt safe in the area. I found the room to... More
