Bard College Hotels in Kingston, NY

Decieded to go to hunter mountain, during a blizzard. The roads to/from this hotel were surprising clear, considering that area received over 24 inches of snow that night. The room was clean and the owners were extremely sweet. Hunter mountain was only a few minutes away, making the trip easy. Overall a good stay.

We made a reservation with Rebecca - when I called she explained her B&B and we were ready to get there from a hard week of work. Rebecca was warm and friendly - she shared her home with the upmost respect. The breakfast was also very nice - omelets with fresh fruit, juice, coffee and croissants. The room and bed were very comfortable with selective decor. We would gladly return in the future.

Free wifi, friendly front desk staff. Well located off the thruway. The rooms are quiet and beds are comfortable. Will definitely stay there again.

Excellent clean room. Right across from a wonderful diner. Mcdonalds right next door. On the other side is a drug store and a laundromat. WHat more could you want?

All the room surfaces were clean, but it had a very musty smell. Most disgusting was the waist-high cement ash tray outside our room that looked like it had been emptied about 75 packs ago. It went uncleaned during our 2 night stay. Air conditioner/heater worked well, which was good on our unseasonably cold May visit. But it was placed in a window so high that I had to climb on the counter in order to turn it on. The room's positive features were a small refridgerator and a nice round table with two chairs. Bathroom was small but adequate and clean. Only wifi available is in the lobby (or perhaps rooms adjacent to the office). Lobby has comfy couches so it was a pleasant place to check email on my laptop on a late Saturday morning, if only they had lit a fire in the lobby woodstove--it was a rainy, windy 45F & the front door kept blowing open. No staff were at the desk to ask. The big plus is the beatiful property -- behind the office is a wide, rushing creek piled high with round river stones. Barn swallows were diving over the water. A wooded trail headed towards a water fall, but due to the rain relentless rain we never had a chance to explore. The fact that its dog friendly was why we chose this motel, & the spacious field surrounding the creek were perfect for running our 2 dogs. Beware of restaurant on premises: Kindred Spirits. Overpriced, dusty tacky decor & nasty food: we sent back fried calamari that were inedibly overcooked & tasted of burnt oil.

Customer service was excellent. I would definitely stay there again.

This hotel was an unexpected gem. The staff were friendly and hospitable, and we had so much fun there - lots of amenities and things to do. We will definitely be back!

You have to go into the bar to check in... Staff was friendly but you have to walk all the way outside to get to your rooms.. Basically it's all separated . Never ever staying there again!!:(
