About this stay

A Contemporary Retreat with a Hint of Nostalgia

Set just steps from the Atlantic City shoreline, The Annex at the Chelsea invites a slower pace with its relaxed charm and retro touches. This two-star hotel offers a simple, unpretentious escape where subtle modern comforts blend with a softly nostalgic vibe. The outdoor saltwater pool, an uncommon and refreshing amenity in the area, sets a calm, soothing tone that carries through to stylish dining experiences on site.

While the building shows signs of its history, guests find genuine comfort in the quiet corners and kid-friendly spaces. Free Wi-Fi and parking ease the practicalities of travel, letting visitors focus more on the gentle rhythms of beachside days. Towels are thoughtfully provided for those eager to embrace the sun and sand, creating an easy access to the coastal playground just beyond the door.
