Fodor's Expert Review Hyatt Place New York Chelsea

Tall and pale, the tower that houses the new Hyatt Place is not particularly easy on the eyes, but when you're marveling at the stunning skyscraper-laden view from an upper-floor room, you won't give a damn what the facade looks like. Rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, blackout shades, complimentary water, coffeemakers, ultracomfy king-size beds, and 50-inch, flat-screen TVs. The in-house eatery and bar doesn't compare to the surrounding restaurant landscape—all the more reason to take advantage of the Chelsea restaurant scene.
