Hyatt Place New York / Chelsea is a 4-star hotel in the Chelsea neighborhood at 140 W 24th St, set among lively bars and shops. It’s a relaxed, modern base with a practical Midtown Manhattan location—about a 3-minute walk to a subway station, roughly 10 minutes on foot to Madison Square Garden, and around a 14-minute walk to the Empire State Building (853 m). Rooms are described as unfussy and include flat-screen TVs, Wi‑Fi, minifridges, and coffeemakers; some add skyline views and/or sofabeds. On-site, there’s an understated restaurant with a bar, plus a 24-hour fitness center and a rooftop terrace. Breakfast is available, and the hotel’s position makes it convenient for sights such as The High Line (985 m), Bryant Park (1,398 m), Times Square (1,689 m), and Grand Central Terminal (1,778 m).
Best for
This hotel is best for travelers who want a Chelsea address with easy access to major Midtown landmarks and transit, including Madison Square Garden, the Empire State Building, Times Square, and Grand Central Terminal. It also suits guests who value in-room conveniences (minifridge, coffeemaker, Wi‑Fi) and on-site basics like a bar/restaurant, 24-hour fitness center, rooftop terrace, and breakfast availability.
Travel tips
Because the hotel is a short walk from a subway station, it’s well positioned for getting to destinations farther afield such as the 9/11 Memorial & Museum (3,977 m), Brooklyn Bridge (4,251 m), and Central Park (4,891 m). Reviews mention elevator congestion and breakfast-area crowding at peak times; planning an earlier or later breakfast window can help. For walkable itineraries, The High Line (985 m) and the Whitney Museum of American Art (1,343 m) make a good pairing from Chelsea.
