Hotel industry veteran Edward Scheetz is proud to announce the launch of a new hospitality brand, <\/span>Chelsea Hotels<\/b>, a re-brand and evolution of the former King & Grove Hotels. <\/span><\/span>

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Chelsea Hotels<\/b> includes Hotel Chelsea born 1884, Martha Washington born 1905, McCarren Hotel & Pool born 2011, Ruschmeyer\u2019s born 1952, and Astor Hotel to open in 2016. In a move that supports his vision and strategy for growth, Scheetz enrolled the pioneering design agency Pandiscio Co. to help further develop the unique identities of each property, and to create <\/span>Chelsea Hotels<\/b>, a new and powerful brand that unites them.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span>\"Exterior\"<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Located in the center of the Chelsea neighborhood at 222 West 23rd Street, Hotel Chelsea<\/b>, built in 1884, has fostered an intriguing array of creative talents, including Bob Dylan, Virgil Thomson, Patti Smith, Iggy Pop, Viva, Leonard Cohen, Arthur Miller, Janis Joplin, among many others. Revered as a creative and cultural nexus, the Chelsea<\/b>, built originally as a residential cooperative, quickly became the most culturally significant hotel in the US, catering to a unique and diversified group of people. Hotel Chelsea<\/b> became New York\u2019s first utopian community that, through its mix of residents from all over the world, creative energy and public spaces, encouraged interaction between all kinds of people from all kinds of backgrounds.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Chelsea Hotels <\/b>embodies this spirit and celebrates the authentic communities and individuality of its family of five properties \u2013 some with historical significance, others with relatively new construction, all with a different look and feel \u2013 tied together with an underlying philosophy and approach to service. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Designed to suit the changing needs and moods of the modern traveler, Chelsea Hotels<\/b> offers superb quality, personalized service, renowned cuisine, exceptional design, and state of the art business and meeting facilities.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cWe wanted a name that reflects what we stand for as a brand, and Chelsea Hotels<\/b> does just that. In the spirit of our most iconic property, Chelsea Hotels<\/b> welcomes all to become part of a community rooted in culture, creativity and shared experiences,\u201d said Edward Scheetz, CEO of Chelsea Hotels<\/b>.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
The roll out of Chelsea Hotels<\/b> will begin with this month\u2019s launch of McCarren Hotel and Pool<\/b>, formerly King & Grove Williamsburg. In late August 2014, King & Grove New York will re-launch under the hotel\u2019s original name Martha Washington<\/b>. The historic Hotel Chelsea<\/b> will open in 2015, and a new project, Astor Hotel<\/b>, will open in 2016. Ruschmeyer\u2019s<\/b> in Montauk is currently open.<\/span><\/div>\n
