This Hampton Inn is a nice, clean place to stay in Chelsea, with very helpful front desk staff, decent size rooms, reasonable rates, and a solid breakfast included (waffles, eggs, sausage, cereal, etc.). It's not a luxury hotel, but it's an excellent option if you're looking for a quiet, comfortable and helpful home base from which to explore Manhattan. If you're driving in, be aware of added parking expense - but that's true of pretty much all Manhattan hotels.
