The Best Hotels in the Hudson Valley for an Idyllic Fall Getaway

"Bohemian-meets-Belle Epoque is the best way to describe the interior design of The Maker, a boutique hotel where over 70 percent of the decor is vintage. Their four historic buildings—including an 1800s carriage house—are adorned in Moroccan rugs, stained glass, jewel-toned furniture, and wallpaper designed by the property’s co-founder. Even the beds, one of the few new pieces, are crafted in the French Louis XV style. Meanwhile, an all-day coffeehouse is inspired by the cafés of Europe and the main restaurant is housed in a glass conservatory."

"“The landscape is dominant,” Taavo Somer said of his new high-design, 225-acre retreat that's already one of the best hotels in Hudson Valley. Dotting the pastoral grounds are 28 cabins, a 12-room Dutch Colonial farmhouse, a restaurant, two swimming pools, a nine-hole golf course, and a three-acre organic garden, as well as a wild garden designed by famed landscape architect Miranda Brooks. A wellness center with a spa and gym will open later this year."

"“I wanted to move away from the typical Upstate aesthetic—antlers, plaid, reclaimed wood—and do something different,” designer Robert McKinley said of his interiors for Hotel Kinsley, a boutique hotel housed in four different 17th to 19th-century buildings. Different, to him, meant rooms adorned in warm, sixties space-age-esque colors (think a mustard yellow headboard, a bright blue rug, an orange velvet sofa, and plaid chairs) dotted with modish modern pieces like Smeg refrigerators and walnut desks."

"Troutbeck owner Anthony Champalimaud took cues from the Cotswolds Soho Farmhouse for this mid-century countryside resort with a rich history. (When it was publisher Joel Spingarn’s private estate, Ernest Hemingway, Thurgood Marshall, and Theodore Roosevelt were all guests.) Upon its 250 acres? Hiking trails, tennis courts, and wellness barns complete with workout studios and spa treatment rooms."
