We wanted to go to New York for seven days but couldn't believe the high price of hotels. We found the Chelsea lodge on trip advisor though and couldnt believe the low price, great value! The hotel is easy to find and in a good central location, within walking distance to most attractions. The staff are friendly and helpful but... more

I booked the lodge for a friend and I after looking through a lot of places, checking out prices and reviews on this website. Chelsea Lodge had such good reviews and reasonable prices that we went for it. I was a bit nervous about the shower being in the room and the toilet down the hall, but it was absolutely... more

Just got back from a wonderful 4 day trip to NYC and had such a greatl experience staying at the Chelsea Lodge. We went fully aware that the rooms were small, and yes they were, but spotless and charming. It is called a LODGE...and that's exactly what it felt like.Staff was very nice and welcoming.Shared toilets are not a problem... more

My husband and I stayed at the Chelsea Lodge for 2 nights while we were in town to see a concert at Madison Square Garden (Pearl Jam). I booked the hotel for 2 reasons: the price and the location. The price was excellent considering the location.... Okay so the hotel is not in Times Square but it is in a... more

While the price and the location were great - I wasn't so happy with the lodge itself. The room was tiny - only a sink & shower stall, the bathroom was down the hall... not so convienent if you have to go in the middle of the night. It was just my husband & I and we felt very cramped.... more

We found the studio apartment spacious and well equipped with it's small kitchenette.The location is superb, the lodge is in an attractive quiet street which feels very safe, which was very relaxing after a busy day out. We found all the staff very helpful and... more

The hotel has an excellent location. I felt extremely safe and the subway (red and blue lines) is only about a 3 block walk away. The "lodge" itself could use some work. The bed was extremely hard. After a long day/night of walking the last thing you want is a hard bed. There was also a dingy smell to the... more

After reading the excellent reviews we chose the Chelsea Lodge for our stay in New York in April. (we had to book in November though as there was great demand!) From a getting about NYC point of view it was a great base, only 5 mins walk from both the red and blue subway lines (make sure you get a... more
