Hotels near the High Line put you on one of the most walkable corridors in New York City, with direct access to West Chelsea galleries, the Meatpacking District, and Hudson Yards. Every hotel on this list is within 0.13 miles of a named park entrance, measured to the closest access point, not to a midpoint of the 1.45-mile park. Selection favored proximity first, then guest satisfaction and segment variety, so you get options from a 5-star Meatpacking address down to a well-rated mid-range room on West 27th Street.
How we ranked these hotels
Walking distance to the nearest High Line entrance determined the order. The High Line runs 1.45 miles from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District north to West 34th Street at Hudson Yards, so a hotel beside the Gansevoort Street end is not penalized for being far from the northern terminus. Each distance below names the specific entrance used.
Within 0.01 miles of each other, a higher star rating moved a hotel up. Guest satisfaction scores informed the final write-ups but did not override proximity.

Picking the right stretch of the park
- The Gansevoort Street end (14th St area) drops you into the Meatpacking District, with the Whitney Museum one block away. The Standard and Gansevoort Meatpacking are both here.
- The West Chelsea mid-section (16th to 27th Streets) runs past public art installations and gallery row on West 22nd Street. The High Line Hotel, The Maritime, and Hotel Alameda all access this stretch.
- The northern end at West 34th Street feeds directly into Hudson Yards and The Shed. None of the five hotels on this list are closest to that end, but all five are within a 20-minute walk of it along the park.
What to expect in West Chelsea and the Meatpacking District
West Chelsea runs from roughly 14th Street to 30th Street along the west side of Manhattan, with Tenth Avenue as its spine. You get a dense cluster of contemporary art galleries between 20th and 27th Streets, most within a block of the park. Restaurants range from counter-service lunch spots to destination dining rooms.
The Meatpacking District, anchored at 14th Street and 9th Avenue, draws a younger nightlife crowd and houses the Whitney Museum of American Art at 99 Gansevoort Street. Cobblestone streets and converted warehouse buildings give the neighborhood a texture you do not find further north on the park.
Both neighborhoods are well served by the A, C, E, and L subway lines, and the 7 train at Hudson Yards connects the northern end of the park to Midtown in under 10 minutes.
