If you’ve been thinking, as we have, that it would be nice if Atlantic City were a bit less of a punchline and a bit more of an actual destination, then you should be cheered by news of the Chelsea Hotel. Los Angeles hipsters never stopped going to Vegas — so why shouldn’t the Jersey Shore bask in a little reflected New York glamour?
There’s no casino. Best to get that out of the way right up front. That’s bad if you can’t stand the idea of going outside, but good if, like the Chelsea, you’re trying to attract a slightly livelier crowd. Here you come for the hotel itself, for the boutique style and the young, sociable atmosphere, for the rooftop bar, the beach service, the restaurants by Stephen Starr, and the full-service spa.
It’s almost two hotels in one: the Luxe Tower is the high-rise portion of the Chelsea, with a look (and a level of comfort) that’s in tune with what you might find in Manhattan’s — or even Miami’s — high-end boutique hotels. And then there’s the Annex, the retro-style motel-chic wing of the hotel, where a slightly younger and more budget-conscious crowd gathers. If you prize peace and quiet Luxe Tower is probably for you, but the Annex, however sociable, is hardly less comfortable.
Add a saltwater pool, a rollicking rooftop bar, and a pair of restaurants — Chelsea Prime, the tower’s steakhouse, and Teplitzky’s, the upscale diner in the Annex — and you’ve got yourself a fine little hotel. And of course you’ll want to get out and see a bit of the town, as the Chelsea has wisely left most of the kitsch — and all of the gambling — out on the boardwalk.
