Pro's: Everything you could want is under one roof, minus the casino but the Tropicana is next door so that's fine. They have 2 restaurants, a bar, a club, 2 pools and a spa. PS:The steakhouse was great!!! The jacuzzis were nice. Right on the beach. Valet parking. Con's: climate control was poor. always cold wherever we went. You need... More

I checked in at the The Chelsea Hotel with 7 other friends on January 12, 2012 in two Luxe Water Queen rooms. We had purchased the Living Social deal and we were looking forward to a one night getaway. The decor of the place was interesting, somewhat retro, though decidedly less glamorous than the website had depicted it to be,... More

Dear YW, Thank you for your lenghty review of your recent stay and I apologize it was marred by your loss of your camera after your check-out of the hotel. I am very familiar with this situation. Please be assured that, in addition to the initial steps that you reference in your letter, our management team interviewed other staff members,... More

My boyfriend and I spent a night there. It's right next to Tropicana and the boardwalk. The room was standard but clean and with a balcony. It seemed like the better rooms were in the front and the cheaper rooms were in the back, so there is a social discrimination in that sense. Valet parking is available but a bit... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at The Chelsea Hotel in Atlantic City on February 4th 2012. We had an excellent time. The hotel was very "young" (we are 22), which is what I was looking for--- everyone seemed to be our age. It was clean, retro yet modern, and the staff was friendly.We stayed in a Luxe King Room.

We visited the Chelsea with a Living Social deal, so the price was great. The regular room rate was more than we would have paid for the accommodations. The location of the hotel is great - on the boardwalk and close to the Tropicana. The rooms were nicely furnished and clean, but the walls were far from sound proof. We... More

We just wanted a one night stay to walk around AC and check out the casinos. The hotel was clean, the staff was very friendly, valet parking was very convenient and the location is great. It is a close to the casinos but also far enough away to make it a more intimate stay. I would stay here again. More

My husband and I visited The Chelsea the weekend of 2/3/12, and I must say we were treated absolutely wonderful. The entertainment, the food, the room service, and the atmosphere was all great.

I have stayed at the Chelsea with my children (13yr to 20yrs), spouse, MIL and friends. My stays were always in the Luxe tower, I am a... More

Was there this weekend and was not impressed. The lobby is nice and the rooms sufficient. It was SO crowded with young kids who had purchased Living Social deals that it was ridiculous. The line to check in was over an hour and when you go to the desk you were told you could "precheck" in and they would call... More
