"Bob Dylan and Patti Smith used to hang out at Hotel Chelsea. That was over half a century ago, and the hotel has been significantly renovated since, although it still maintains some old-timey charm. On the ground floor, you’ll find the appropriately named Lobby Bar, filled with mismatched rugs, enormous chandeliers, and couches you sink into as your blood’s gin content climbs steadily upward. (Be careful with the martinis here.)" - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja
