Now that spring is here and the weather is starting to warm up it’s a great time to get out of the city and surround yourself in nature. Whether you’re into hiking and biking or longing for a scenic drive in the mountains, I can’t think of a better place to enjoy some fresh air and open spaces than in the Hudson Valley! Here are a few suggestions for places to stay in the Hudson Valley and Catskill Mountains during your next visit.
Where to Stay in the Hudson Valley
Starlite Motel

Modern Accord Depot
Accord, NY
This once historic train depot has been transformed into a “dynamic arts residency space and one-of-a-kind Hudson Valley getaway”. Renovated by the architecture team behind our homes, Studio MM Architect, Modern Accord Depot hosts “artists or non-profit arts organizations in need of residency space and travelers from near and far, in search of unforgettable vacation experiences.” The second-floor “bunk” room has six individual sleeping pods, giving dancers, artists and guests a semi-private place to rest and recharge. Reminiscent of bunks in a sleeping car, the design is a subtle nod to the depot’s history, while playful pops of color add a lively and whimsical touch.
