Curator’s statement
In December of 2023, I stayed at the Moxy NYC Chelsea hotel and I did a site inspection during my three-night stay. The hotel is centrally located in Chelsea, near Midtown. Many of the rooms have expansive windows with city views, and the rooftop bar has sweeping views of the city and Empire State Building.

Where to stay
Moxy NYC Chelsea
Trendy hotel with bright rooms and an industrial-chic vibe in the heart of Chelsea.
Unlock perks by contacting Alina to book your trip.
The hotel is located in Chelsea’s flower district and it’s an easy walk to Bryant Park and multiple subway lines. Most upper-level rooms have city views over midtown and the expansive windows allow natural light to flow into the room. The room itself is small, although it was considered an upgrade. On the other hand, the bathroom was spacious and sleek. The highlights at the Moxy are the first-floor cafe & bakery and the top-floor rooftop bar with sweeping views of the city and Empire State Building.
Need to know
I recommend the Moxy NYC Chelsea hotel if you are looking for an alternative to Times Square hotels but you still want the proximity to Midtown. If you enjoy an evening drink in a swank rooftop bar with expansive city views, the Moxy is a perfect choice.
