Moxy NYC Chelsea is a 4-star, design-forward hotel set in Chelsea's Flower District, just steps from the 28 Street subway station and an 8-minute walk from the Empire State Building. Rooms lean industrial-chic, with some configurations offering bunk beds or floor-to-ceiling windows for city views, while suites add separate living rooms for extra space. On-site dining includes a hip cafe, a sophisticated Italian restaurant, and a ground-floor bar, plus a swanky 35th-floor cocktail lounge with panoramic skyline views. Practical amenities include free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour fitness center, meeting space, and free breakfast. The location puts guests within a mile of Bryant Park, Grand Central Terminal, the High Line, Times Square, and Rockefeller Center, with Korea Town's restaurants and karaoke bars a short stroll away. It's a stylish base for exploring Midtown Manhattan on foot or by subway.
Best for
This hotel suits style-conscious couples, solo travelers, and first-time Moxy visitors drawn to its industrial-chic design, rooftop-style cocktail lounge, and lively Flower District setting. It also works well for sightseers, thanks to its short walk to the Empire State Building and easy subway access to Times Square, Grand Central, and Rockefeller Center.
Travel tips
The 28 Street subway station is about a 3-minute walk, making it easy to reach Midtown and other Manhattan attractions without a car. Set aside time for the 35th-floor cocktail lounge, especially around sunset, for panoramic city views, and consider walking the 7 minutes to Korea Town for a wider range of dining options. Rooms run on the smaller, New York-standard side, so pack accordingly and plan to spend more time exploring the neighborhood than lounging in-room.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the attentive service and thoughtful room details, along with the hotel's convenient subway access and abundance of nearby dining options. The panoramic views from upper floors draw particular admiration, though several reviewers note the rooms themselves are small by comfort and ergonomic standards for New York City. Breakfast is mentioned as simple and light rather than extensive. At least one guest highlighted this as a positive first experience with the Moxy brand, suggesting appeal for repeat stays across the chain.
