Venue Setting

Hotel Chelsea, built in 1884, stands the test of time. The landmarked building once a famed refuge for rare individuals, such as Andy Warhol and Janis Joplin, now emerges from rehabilitation. The rich history that’s undoubtedly made Hotel Chelsea iconic, evolves into a new chapter, as its story continues. Within its grand exterior is several distinct event spaces suitable for any type of gathering, from intimate dinner parties to luxe weddings. The Bard Room, named for former owner and manager Stanely Bard, is a grand ballroom with historic architectural characteristics and antique brass chandeliers, is ideal for larger celebrations. Any gathering will be infused with glamour in this sophisticated setting. El Quijote, a more intimate version of the original restaurant with many of the original 1930’s details restored, is a cozy environment perfect for intimate dinners to whole restaurant buyouts. Cervantes, our wine room, with a sultry atmosphere is available for private dining. The Tea Room, set inside the original General Manager's office, features the original ceiling mural and molding, is perfect for private dinners or daytime meetings. Within the Lobby Bar, a grand European-style space that serves as a “living room” for the hotel, lies the Piano Room. Featuring custom furniture, ornate rugs, sun-filled Solarium and a Baby Grand Piano, it makes the perfect setting for the classiest of cocktail parties. Café Chelsea is an entirely new all-day restaurant within the storied hotel. The French American bistro has strong Provençal influences and will feature a private dining room with its own bar. The hotel was redesigned by Sean MacPherson, Ira Drukier & Richard Born, with the aim to refresh the interiors while keeping the original spirit of the hotel. The food and beverage for each space and concept is thoughtfully curated to create a uniquely elevated dining experience is operated by Sunday Hospitality and partner Charles Seich.
