Hotels in Hudson Valley

Winding along the Hudson River, you'll find yourself torn between gazing at dramatic Palisades cliffs or the stately mansions that once housed America's aristocracy. Future chefs perfect their craft at Hyde Park's Culinary Institute, where student-run restaurants offer gourmet meals at surprisingly reasonable prices. Storm King Art Center sprawls across acres of rolling landscape, massive sculptures appearing like visions among the trees. In autumn, the valley erupts in a color display that makes leaf-peepers weak at the knees. Winter transforms Hunter Mountain into a snowy playground, while LEGOLAND® delights families during its seasonal operation. The Mohonk Mountain House stands like a Victorian fantasy atop a ridge, its wooden balconies overlooking a pristine lake where no motorboats disturb the silence.
