Chambers Hotel

I had a really terrific stay at the Chambers Hotel this past week. I routinely travel to NYC and chose Chambers this time because of its location, and really more on a lark as it was listed on
. My good fortune — the rooms were terrific and generously sized for NYC. The shower was phenomenal with great bath products (these little things matter when you travel a lot for business). The hotel was quiet and understated but classy and comfortable and of real substance and quality. Wi-​Fi was free (!!) and the staff was extremely friendly and courteous. When I had to get a cab to the airport at 4:30am, one of the guys from the front desk ran out all the way down to 6^th Avenue to hail one since they knew they wouldn’t be coming down the side streets at that hour. That’s service.
I look forward to staying there next time I’m in NYC.

I spent 2 nights at Chambers in May. The location is perfect for a morning run in Central park, it is only 2 blocks away.
The rooms are great but what is really amazing is the shower, it’s like being in a bath standing still.
However the breakfast service is the slowest I have ever experienced, it takes forever (at least 20 minutes to get something).

The Chambers is a discreet and stylish oasis in a perfect location. The south facing rooms are light filled and gave high ceilings. Highly recommend it.

I’ve spent numerous nights in NYC, often on friend’s couches (or floors), but a number of times with established, well known hotel brands (Hilton, Starwoods, etc…), and I can tell you this, Chambers Hotel outshines all of my previous stays without question.
The rooms are clean, very comfortable and modernly appointed; the bathrooms are spacious enough and feature a terrific rain shower head; however, the value in the Chambers Hotel goes well beyond the accommodations. The service and the staff is quite possibly the best I’ve ever been treated to in Manhattan. Specifically, the concierge who went well out of his way to make us feel welcome each morning (and late evening) and truly made the weekend memorable.
Of course you have hundreds of hotels to choose from in New York, but I’ve found my new favorite, and one I will surely patronize the next chance I get.

The hotel is in a great location, and has unique features like an actual key for the room, Saratoga bottled waters, free wifi, and the fact that they welcome pets but with no fee; plus, they gave our dog a bed, bowls with greenies and bottle water! We also got a corner room with offered us more windows and they did a good job getting the flowers and champagne that my husband ordered in our room while we were away.
There are some minor issues: the king size bed isn’t really king size, the ceiling is bare with pipes, and cracks, the ac/​heat seems to never stop running, and the bed doesn’t have a frame. It leaves the room slightly unpleasant… but nonetheless those are minor compared to the positives! Plus, room service from Chef David Chang’s ma peche downstairs is a really unique option!

This is going to my new no-​so secret secret. Great location, fun vibe, welcoming lobby with a fireplace and a great bar. The room is big enough, the bathroom was luxe, and the staff was accommodating and friendly. The price is right too — under $ 400 for NYC midtown boutique is a deal.

Really trendy and chic boutique hotel.
The rooms were clean and big by NYC standards. All the amenities were great.
The location is just perfect !!! Super close to Shopping/​Central Park/​MOMA and most other attractions are only a quick cab ride away. Choosing this hotel for our stay in NYC was probably the best decision of our whole trip.
Last but not the least, staff is very friendly, helpful and polite.
A hidden gem indeed!!!

I loved this place. The staff here is amazing; super friendly. The shower may well be the best I’ve ever had… ever. The lounge area on the 2^nd floor was a nice work space. The only real let down was that wifi in the room was pretty unreliable.

Super friendly staff. The front desk is very helpful, polite, and friendly. They go out of their way to make sure your stay is as wonderful as possible.
They are very knowledgeable about the area and what activity or restaurants are good.
Décor is clean modern and overall lovely.

This will be the first hotel I call next time I go to Manhattan. You get a lot of value considering its fabulous location. It’s a nice, clean hotel, and the people were friendly and helpful.

The shower, the shower, the shower, the service. These are the reasons you should stay here. The beds are comfortable, the staff helpful, but I want nothing to do with it, all about the shower.
Also, milk bar room service, and ma peche happy hour.

Chambers hotel is a hidden gem. My husband and I stood here in January 2014. Our room was spectacular and very comfy. Reception was extremely helpful and friendly. Everything was very neat, clean, detailed, charming and artistic. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Very basic hotel but very expensive the room doesn’t even have mini bar or coffee machine the bathroom very small i wouldn’t recommend it to friends and family.

Where do I start??? What a hidden gem!
BEST hotel I have ever stayed in! The location is beyond perfect! Short blocks from all shopping/​central park/​times square. Now the service is impeccable… We had the pleasure of being taken care of by Jose, Ty and Beth! They were so awesome and truly treated us like royalty! I cannot say enough wonderful things! The rooms are super roomy for NYC… and the best part are the showers! I kid you not… just the showers alone is worth the stay! BEST trip I’ve had. Thank you Chamber for being so amazing to us! :))))

I’ve stayed here twice and while I do like it, I’m not completely smitten. Whenever I go to NY for business, I usually stay at another nearby hotel that I absolutely love. I think it’s the best kept secret ever and so no, I’m not going to give out the name. I’m selfish like that.
Pros:
— The shower. Yes, this might be the absolute best thing about this hotel. I have a love affair with their showerhead. Not that kind of love affair, get your mind outta the gutter.
— The staff. They’re all kind of young and trendy. But they’re all super nice.
— The interior/​décor. I dig it all. The whole artsy feel of the rooms. The colorful murals on the walls. The velvet couches. Meow.
— Room was clean. Maybe a little worn down in some areas but nothing too major.
— Ma Peche is located in this hotel. Go get your world rocked by their pork buns.
Cons:
— The rooms are small. Not tiny, but small. Not bad for NYC standards but not great for what they charge. I usually pay considerably less for tons more space at my «secret hotel.»
— Both times I’ve stayed here, my views have been less than desirable and directly facing another building. I’m not sure how my co-​worker lucked out but he booked the same room I did and got a terrace. Good for him, sad face for me.
— My most recent stay, my air conditioner vent was all rattly and made it a little difficult to get to sleep.
Tip: Don’t be afraid to drink the blue bottled Saratoga water in your room. They’re free!

Delightful little hotel. Rooms have unique character, clean, great rate, great location, no card keys but actual hard keys. (Which in my growing digital experience is becoming a novelty.) Minimalistic in its design. Incredible shower pressure. (I do enjoy a great sunflower head open shower deluge experience.) my typical stay is the Marriott so you can imagine my surprise at finding this little gem in the rough. However there’s really nothing rough about this hotel. room service is great, the attached restaurant is quick to serve, and tasty. Beds are clean, high count linens, and mattresses are ever so refreshing. Each floor has a slight variation in hallway theme helping even the most inhibriated find their way home for the eve. Highly recommended!

I’m almost tempted not to review this place because it seems to be somewhat of a secret and I don’t want to let the secret out. Stayed here with my boyfriend last weekend and I was so impressed! We got a great deal on Jetsetter and based on the price and what I’ve paid for NYC hotels in the past, I had just about no expectations. The people that work here are just amazing. I always expect a snobby attitude in NYC, especially when not paying extravagant prices. The staff gets to know you when you walk in and makes sure you’re treated well up until you leave.
I was expecting the usual tiny hotel room but was very pleasantly surprised. Nice size closet, big windows, high ceilings. It’s not just a bed and nothing else, it’s actually a decent sized hotel room. It has a modern warehouse vibe that I love, large flat screen tv’s, very nice showers. And the glass bottles of water they give out are so classy!
We were rushing in and out all weekend as NYC trips usually go, but I kind of wish we could have just relaxed and spent some more time in the hotel. We didn’t even have a second to look around the lobby area until we were on our way out, but the lobby was so comfortable with couches and books all over. It would have been a great spot to have a cocktail.
They were also very accommodating to hold our bags on our last day after check out, and didn’t slip in any extra fees. Very VERY impressed. This will definitely be my go-​to hotel in NYC… and the location is amazing! Right by the park, 5^th Ave, great restaurants, it really doesn’t get much better. Thanks Chambers for a great weekend!

Wonderful hotel. I had stayed at the W on Lexington the night prior to staying at the Chambers, and the Chambers blows them away. Although the hotel doesn’t look like much from the street, you’re greeted warmly the moment you approach (or as soon as you open the doors, if you happen to walk up at a time when the doorman is inside). They offered bottled water during check-​in, and all staff members were extremely friendly and well-​informed.
I was here to help out with a business event (conference room rental + a suite upstairs for a small gathering later in the evening). One of the desk girls remembered the conference room rental and later asked how everything went. Every small request was handled politely and immediately. The suite itself was gorgeous and well-​maintained, and I don’t remember hearing a bit of noise from any other rooms. Also — chocolates and water were delivered with the turn-​down service.
If you get a chance, the terrace suite here is phenomenal. It’s only on the 6^th floor, but you get a huge outdoor area that’s perfect for looking out at the city. Based on my experiences with NYC hotels so far (including others stays at the Sheraton by Times Square and the Cassa Hotel), I’m convinced that boutique hotels like the Chambers are the way to go.
One more thing — the wifi was totally free, which is nice. Most high-​end hotels love to tack on dozens of tiny fees, and it’s nice to see one that doesn’t.

It kind of surprises me that this place doesn’t have more reviews, however, after staying here I think I have a better understanding as to why. First off, we drove right by this place without realizing it was our hotel. And it is NYC, so its not like you can just do a u-​turn, haha! It is kind of hidden on 56^th st and doesn’t stick out at all… it was really easy to overlook/​miss. On the other hand, this is a great location as it is right off of 5^th (great shopping) and still very close to central park… which was important for us.
After getting set up with the valet parking (around $ 40/​night) we walked into the hotel and were pretty taken back, but in a good way. The lobby is extremely nice, but also very small. You could tell right away that this hotel was not very big (maybe 60 rooms), which is nice because it keeps everything pretty quiet, and don’t be surprised if they remember your name! Anyways, everyone was so friendly and even offered us a bottled water upon checking in. They offered us an upgrade to a king-​size bed and we were given a room on the 9^th floor (although I would have liked to be a bit higher).
Each floor has a different theme and all the room numbers are on the floor right in front of the door. They actually give you a huge key instead of a key card, like all the rest of the hotels… pretty cool. I noticed this hotel had a lot of character and personality right away! Our room was a little over 300 sq. ft. The bed was extremely comfortable and they even have an in-​room safe. I was a little surprised that the flat panel TV was the size of a computer screen… I really expected at least a 37 inch. Also, the rainfall shower was pretty nice, however, the space is kind of oddly used. Being a girl and all I found it a bit challenging to shave my legs… call me crazy I guess.
Housekeeping was awesome and they even do turn-​down service and leave a bottle of water with truffles! Each time we left and came back there a doorman was always there to greet us… it was the little things that really made this hotel!
This hotel makes a for a great stay if you are looking to be steps from 5^th ave. shopping and close to the park. Also, the overall service is exceptional and the rooms are relatively affordable compared to what else is in the nearby area.

Sexy, sleek and modern without being pretentious or intimidating, it is warm and welcoming.
The hotel is attached to Town. restaurant and I would recommend eating dinner there. Or just grabbing a drink from their bar.
We arranged to have our party start in the terrace lounge that overlooks the lobby/​fireplace and to have a waitress come for drink orders. She was professional and on top of things and totally cool when those who were just dropping in grabbed a single drink at the bar to save time.
The suite was really well laid out, with the living room area parallel to the bedroom. There was a comfy couch and coffee table on the window side and the opposite side desk area allowed us to set up birthday cupcakes for the guests to munch on while destroying the cases of champagne we brought up.
The shower had great pressure, which is one of the few things I remember from the next morning’s hangover-​clouded daze.
