I had a wonderful stay at this charming hotel that beautifully balances modern comforts with a rustic character. The riverfront view was stunning, and the communal breakfast area was a lovely touch. Although I loved the ambiance and amenities, the noise from the nearby grill can be a bit lively at times. Overall, it's a fantastic getaway spot with friendly service and great nearby attractions.

I had a really good stay at the Stewart House. The historic charm of the building was delightful, and the views of the river were simply stunning. While the air conditioning had some issues initially, they brought in a window unit that worked perfectly, and the overall comfort of the room made up for that small inconvenience. The breakfast was self-service, and perfectly adequate, but a few additional details were overlooked during my stay. Overall, it's a wonderful base to explore the Hudson Valley, but it could use a bit more attention to small details.
I had a lovely time staying at this charming old inn in Athens. It’s filled with character, and the restaurant and bar on-site were great conveniences. The continental breakfast was simple but enjoyable. However, the rough wood floors in the room weren’t to my taste, and there were some issues with the air conditioning.

My stay at the inn was enjoyable, highlighted by its charming historic atmosphere and comfortable accommodations. The continental breakfast was a pleasant surprise, and the restaurant and bar added to the experience. However, March isn't the best time to visit, and I did find the walls a bit thin, leading to some noise disturbances. Overall, it's a lovely spot to explore the area, but just be mindful of the timing and potential noise.

Dining options were fantastic, especially with all the organic and local choices available. Overall, it’s a great value for money experience, and I can't wait to return.
I had an unforgettable stay at the Stewart House, where the charming historic property meets modern comforts. The rooms were spacious and luxurious, and the service was top-notch, making every moment special. The outdoor dining right by the water was a delightful bonus. My only wish is that the breakfast could have had a bit more variety, but it certainly didn't take away from the experience overall.
