Modern comfort steps from NYC's music scene

Motto by Hilton New York City Chelsea offers a stylish, urban retreat right in the heart of Manhattan. With its sleek design, cozy yet high-tech rooms, and thoughtful amenities, this hotel blends modern minimalism with comfort. Located on West 24th Street, you're surrounded by some of the city's most iconic concert venues, nightlife, and transit options. Whether you're catching a show or just soaking in the city, this is a great base to do it all.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're within walking or subway distance of major venues like Madison Square Garden and the Gramercy Theatre. The hotel’s express check-in and check-out makes arriving late or heading home early a breeze. Rooms are equipped with blackout curtains and soundproofing, perfect for sleeping in after a loud night out. Plus, free Wi-Fi and a helpful concierge make planning your evening simple and stress-free.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a stylish crash pad near the action
• Solo travelers catching a bucket-list artist and wanting a safe, central stay
• Couples spending a music-filled weekend in the city
• Fans who value a peaceful, clean space to recover post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on quality

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up at the on-site café each morning with fresh coffee—ideal after a late night. The hotel also features an in-house restaurant and bar, so you can grab a bite or unwind with a drink without leaving the building. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the location puts you steps away from Chelsea’s late-night dining spots and trendy eateries.

Nightlife Options

Enjoy a low-key evening at the hotel’s own bar, or step outside to explore Chelsea’s lively bar scene. You’ll find cocktail lounges, rooftop bars, and local pubs all within a short walk. Prefer live music? You’re close to a range of intimate venues and bigger arenas alike.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, well-designed rooms, calling them “efficient, modern, and surprisingly quiet.” Many highlight the excellent location for both sightseeing and attending events. The staff earns high marks for being friendly and helpful, especially when it comes to local recommendations.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are on the compact side—typical for NYC—but they’re smartly laid out. Some guests mention limited storage space, so packing light is a plus. If you're driving, parking is available but can be pricey, as expected in Manhattan.

The Bottom Line

Motto by Hilton New York City Chelsea is a smart, comfortable pick for concert-goers who want style, convenience, and a solid night’s sleep just steps from NYC’s top music venues.
