2 Best Hotels in Hyde Park, Hudson Valley

Each room at this B&B, across the road from the entrance to the Vanderbilt Mansion, is tastefully decorated with treasures the owners have collected during their world travels. The Kyoto Room, with light-wood furniture and soft colors, is serene. The English-country suite has rich floral wallpaper, Oriental carpets, and a cozy nook with a daybed. The Roosevelt Room, dressed in subdued country-print fabrics, has two twin beds. The common living room is slightly formal but bright and comfortable.

The family-owned motel, painted presidential white, is in the heart of Hyde Park, within walking distance of antiques shops, restaurants, and museums. Rooms have a queen or king bed, one or two doubles, or a pair of twin beds. The smaller rooms have knotty-pine paneling, whereas the others are more contemporary in style.
