Booking a hotel based on its website it always a leap of faith...will it be any good, what will the staff be like, will it be in a good area etc? When we arrived at the Chelsea Pines Inn I was incredibly happy with the decision we had made. It's in a fabulous location, nice and close to the subway,... more

Four years ago a colleague turned me on to the Chelsea Pines Inn and it immediately became my only choice for lodging in Manhattan. It is in a great section of the city - meat packing / Greenwich Village that is convenient for business or personal needs. The property is charming and is very well maintained. The staff, including Charlie... more

My husband and I LOVED this place. It is quite charming. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They made us feel at home right away. We had booked a standard room which we expected to be small for NYC standards, but it was actually bigger than the room we stayed at during our previous visit to NYC at a... more

Close to several markets, Greenwich, West Village, the new Promenade, the Hudson River, the subway and a number of super restaurants. If the New York hustle and bustle is not for you 24/7 this is your spot with very easy access to it all from a quieter neighbourhood. Thanks to Jay and his colleagues for your suggestions. more

Terrific small hotel with personality. Lots of personal attention. Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are all different. Nice breakfast. Feels like your coming home after a busy city day or evening. Small business center allows free use of computers. Great location within walking distance to the Village and Chelsea. Subway on the corner. more

We've been to NYC several times and stayed in a variety of hotels including some that have very good reviews on Trip Advisor. However, we had never stayed in the Village and this hotel appealed based on the reviews we'd read and the price. We were not disappointed. We booked a standard room, and asked for a high floor with... more

I last reviewed Chelsea Pines 18 months ago after a great stay. I have been back 3 times since, the latest earlier this month, and would not consider anywhere else in New York. Location is ideal, welcome is warm, rooms are character-full and clean and service is attentive. These high standards have been consistent for every visit and staying here... more

I was expecting a lot more based on the hotel's website. The room was pathetically small and cramped, and not exactly a great deal. I think the owners have obviously made an effort to add some charm to the place, but overall I would rather spend a little bit more money to not feel so cramped--with a queen bed, there... more

Me and my wife stayed at Chelsea Pines Inn for a week exploring the NYC. This hotel is probably the best bang for the buck there is in NYC. Great location, excellent staff, small but cosy rooms, service is top notch, great free breakfast, two free computers with i-net, and a nice plump cat :) . Hotel staff helped us... more
