The Moore

Hotel · New York, NY

About

In the heart of gay Chelsea, this intimate boutique hotel offers an unpretentious escape. The Moore, formerly The GEM Hotel-Chelsea, features small but well-appointed rooms that feel like a cozy retreat. The lobby is spacious and understated, setting the tone for a discreet stay. You'll find friendly staff and reasonable prices, all within blocks of the best bars and shops in NYC's gay center.

Rooms are snug but smartly laid out perfect for a weekend snuggle-in. And you'll want to get out, as you're steps from Chelsea's galleries and waterfront park. Nearby you'll find YOTEL New York for another stylish option, but The Moore keeps it local and quiet.

“Great hotel in heart of Chelsea”

From the moment I entered the spacious, casual lobby, I was charmed. The staff was welcoming, and while the rooms are compact like walk-in closets, they're so thoughtfully designed and arranged that you could comfortably stay for an entire weekend. Of course, you'll want to explore since you're just minutes from the best bars, shops, and restaurants in the gay hub of New York City.

“Good for discreet and central”

I was looking for a low-key, no-fuss spot to stay, and wanted to be in the Chelsea area. It's understated, trendy, and perfectly placed in the middle of gay-friendly Chelsea without being loud. Prices are fair, rooms are small but adequate for their purpose. The staff was kind and extremely accommodating. I would suggest staying here.

My favorite hidden spot when I come to New York City. Great location, friendly and helpful staff. Right in the center of Chelsea, with everything within walking distance.
