The Best Places to Stay in New York’s Catskills
"In Greene County’s town of Tannersville, you’ll find the 18-room restored getaway that is Hotel Lilien, formerly the Washington Irving Inn. The Victorian gem dates back to the 1890s, and was just recently (and impeccably) restored with modern touches, most noticeable in the guest bathrooms, which now include brass fixtures and marble floors. Luxury lies in the velvet-y feel of the property, where natural light pours in from the stained-glass windows and bounces off the interior's dark wood paneling. Since its opening, its cocktail bar and dining spaces have become a hub for a trendy crowd, who have the option to join guests enjoying the woodburning stove. The hotel is just five minutes away from the region’s buzzy Hunter Mountain, and has a sprawling lawn, and has just launched a poolside lunch menu in favor of their Summer Spritz cart." - Jessica Chapel
