Gold stars are Chelsea stars! This three-story European-style hotel has a very fun, hostel vibe - and three dorm rooms. Nineteen thematic private rooms are painted to reflect themes such as Star Trek, Absolutely Fabulous, Coney Island and other wacky things.Most rooms overlook loud Eighth Ave, and little single panes of glass block its taxi honks. Thematic rooms are small, with shiny dark-wood floors, a small closet, cable TV and a chair. There are two showers and two toilets - all clean - for every half-dozen rooms; dorms have a private bathroom. The 16 carpeted, more sedate, superior rooms have private bathrooms, TVs with DVDs and writing desks - but lack much character for the bucks. All have access to a common seating area for the mixed crowd bunking here. The Star has plans to expand next door, including a patio area and a lounge.

At the outskirts of Chelsea's most atmospheric streets, the Chelsea Star is a block from Madison Square Garden and a few more from the Empire State Building. The hostel vibe - and traffic - will wreak havoc for lighter sleepers.
Before MTV and the downtown outfits, Madonna lived here briefly in 1981. So you can add celebrity intrigue to the fun at Chelsea Star Hotel.
