The Holiday Inn Chelsea
By Adam Hamway
 I stayed at a Holiday Inn in Chelsea last night and it was a great
experience! Located on 26th Street between 6th and 7th Avenue in New York
City I found my stay to be very enjoyable. I was surprised to find out
how close it was to so many New York City attractions. The hotel is a 5
minute walk from Madison Square Garden (MSG), a 10 minute walk to Time
Square where I could go and catch a Broadway show (which I did), a 2
minute walk to where Martha Stewart Living is taped and a 2 minute walk to
some great bars and restaurants.
 When you walk into the hotel you will notice the warm dйcor and the
really friendly staff. The receptionist told me, before I asked, what
time breakfast starts in the morning, when the business center opened and
closed, and when room service ended for the night. They also mentioned
they had free wireless internet, so I could plan my day in the comfort of
my own room.
 Even though there are no suites available at the Holiday Inn in
Chelsea,
the rooms are just the right size to serve its purpose; a place to sleep.
The room had one of the most comfortable beds I ever slept in and the
pillows had ribbons wrapped around them telling me which one was soft and
which one was firm, so I could choose the one right for me! And every
room has a 32' flat screen television, which is very cool.
 In the bathroom, the shower had a curved shower rod for extra space
and
some really nice soaps. The bath towels were extra large and soft (I've
been to some places where the towels are too small, thin and scratch your
skin. Don't ask). There were even extra towels in the room so I didn't
have to call the front desk.
Now lets say you are looking for a cocktail and do not want to
venture
out on the street. What I suggest you do is stay at the Holiday Inn and
grab a drink from Mike the bartender who is a very friendly fellow. And
if you are hungry you could dine in their beautiful sunroom.
The prices
are comparable to any restaurant or bar in Manhattan.
The price of a room at the Holiday Inn varies on what time of the
year
you travel to New York City. Prices tend to be the cheapest in
Mid-December through February and cost more from September to
Mid-December, so plan accordingly.
