Cheap hotels in Chelsea, New York
Bordered by the West Village to the south and the Garment District to the north, Chelsea boasts a staggering concentration of art galleries. In addition, it's home to the Dia Center for the Arts and the Joyce Theater—a Mecca for modern dance lovers.
For much of the 1990s and early 2000s, Chelsea was the epicenter of New York's gay scene, although these days much of that scene has moved uptown to Hell's Kitchen. Today Chelsea is simply a comfortable, upscale residential area, characterized by long streets lined with century-old brownstones.
Hotels in Chelsea are somewhat limited, but several small independent properties and guesthouses do offer a chance to sleep in a more residential, yet very central, part of town. The Chelsea Inn and Leo House are two of our favorite budget options with rooms right in the heart of the neighborhood.
