Where to Stay: The Most Romantic Hotels in the Hudson Valley

Romance, at its best, is a change of atmosphere — a room that glows a little softer, a fire already lit, a morning that begins slowly and stretches on. The Hudson Valley does this effortlessly, offering a collection of hotels designed for lingering, reconnecting, and remembering the pleasure of going away together.

Think deep soaking tubs, beautiful linens, candlelit dinners, and the quiet luxury of not needing a plan. Places where design feels intimate, service feels personal, and every detail invites you to stay just a little longer.
