A magnificent, turn-of-the-century castle with Norman towers and turrets overlooking the Hudson River, The Castle on the Hudson stands in 10 acres of wooded, manicured grounds and is renowned for its breathtaking views and award-winning restaurant. This has the atmosphere of a stately-home, with vaulted, beamed ceilings, sculpted plasterwork, tapestries and crystal chandeliers dotted throughout the public rooms. The expansive Luxury Suites are positively regal with four-poster beds, turret alcoves and wood-burning fireplaces. Settle into your room and arrange an in-room spa treatment. Then feeling fully pampered, go shopping at Westchester Mall or track down antiques and the historic sites in Tarrytown. Return for a dip in the pool, with superb views across the Hudson Valley, before a gourmet dinner at Equus. Alternatively, dine in the historic Oak Room with wood panelling that was transported from a Parisian house, believed to have once been owned by Louis XIV. The Castle on the Hudson is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
