New York State
Hotels in The Hudson Valley
23 properties in our New York State selection sit in the Hudson Valley. Compared on review record, price reference and what the property itself offers.
What the selection looks like
Across 23 of the 23 properties in the Hudson Valley, the August 2026 snapshot ran from $123 to $559 a night, with a median of $195. Treat those as reference points rather than rates you can book today.
Review scores here have a median of 8.8, and 22 of 23 sit at 8.5 or higher. We rank on a review score weighted by how many reviews it rests on, so a perfect score from a handful of stays does not outrank a strong score from thousands.
Within this set, 2 of the 23 list a pool, a far higher share than anything in the city selection; 12 list a pet-friendly policy; the mix is mostly 20 hotel, 3 bed and breakfast.
