The Chelsea Hotel in New York is a living monument to the city’s artistic and bohemian spirit. Located in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, this iconic hotel, built in the 1880s, has been a creative haven for over a century. Known for its distinct Gothic Revival architecture and wrought iron balconies, it initially served as a cooperative residence for artists before transitioning into a hotel. The Chelsea’s long history is as vibrant and chaotic as the creative lives it hosted.

Famous figures in literature, music, and art have walked its halls. Legendary residents include Dylan Thomas, who spent his final days here, and Leonard Cohen, who immortalized his time at the hotel in the song Chelsea Hotel No. 2. The Rolling Stones, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and Janis Joplin are just a few of the musicians who made the Chelsea their home. Andy Warhol famously shot his film Chelsea Girls here, and writers like Jack Kerouac and Arthur Miller crafted their works within its walls. Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols also lived here, contributing to the hotel’s grittier rock-and-roll history.

Interiors at the Chelsea are steeped in history, and while it has been refurbished in recent years, the charm remains intact. Its quirky rooms, unique design, and connection to the past make every stay special. Guests can explore its art-filled halls, which have inspired countless paintings, photographs, and stories. The hotel also features its historic restaurant, El Quijote, where generations of guests and locals have gathered.

Staying at the Chelsea Hotel is more than just a night’s rest—it’s an immersion into New York City’s artistic soul and a chance to walk in the footsteps of some of the greatest creative minds of the past century

Guided tours within the hotel will help you to get familiar with history of these stays, that is well documented on photographs. Expect lot of artists, bohemian atmosphere and well-stocked bar. Perfect for unique experience in NY!
