What Colonial House Inn actually is
Colonial House Inn occupies an 1850s brownstone on West 22nd Street and has been operating as a small guesthouse since 1984, with a long history serving Chelsea's LGBTQ+ community. It remains a warm, informal, independently run place.
Rooms are small; the cheapest share bathrooms. There is a roof deck and a continental breakfast. The location is central Chelsea — galleries on the surrounding blocks, the High Line five minutes west, and the 1, C and E lines close by.
