Luxury hotel in Chelsea, a one-minute walk from the High Line and the Hudson River, with a spa, restaurant, terrace, fitness center and theatrical design.
Faena New York sits in Chelsea, on Manhattan's west side, and brings the brand's signature style to the city: bold interiors, art on display and theatrical touches. The photos show a spiral staircase with a mural, hallways with reflective floors and a modern lobby that give the building a personality of its own. Together, these details give the property a distinct personality in the neighborhood.
The hotel offers a terrace, a bar and its own restaurant, La Boca, serving breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. The Tierra Santa Healing House spa has sports massage and body treatments, and there is also a fitness center and room service. Pets are allowed and rooms have WiFi. Confirm pet policies and service hours with the hotel. Check availability of each service before arriving.
