What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler, Wallpaper* and AFAR.
Its rooms and suites benefit from the contrasts between the brick-and-timber construction, the modern minimalist décor, and the pastoral small-town setting.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The hotel anchors a quiet street in downtown Hudson, a short stroll from Warren Street antique dealers, contemporary galleries, and the Amtrak station.
The rooms
High warehouse ceilings frame custom wooden millwork, stainless steel washbasins, and elevated soaking tubs set behind headboards in select studios.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The baths
Saltwater pools, warm and cold plunges, and a steam room sit beneath the factory's soaring timber beams.
The spa lounge
Floor cushions sit beneath exposed timber trusses in the lofted lounge, beside rooms for classical Chinese medicine bodywork.
Dogs stay too.
Ambos Restaurant
Chef Norberto Piattoni cooks seasonal Hudson Valley ingredients over open fire in a dining room screened by chainmail curtains.
It’s an entire arts complex—complete with intentional guest rooms, multiple galleries, a subterranean dance club, and more—that carries the forward-thinking, industrial spirit of an old pocketbook factory.
At the table
Claret modular sofas face a long steel bar in the lounge, serving herbal cocktails and natural wines.
How it began

Built in 1883 as a textile mill and pocketbook factory, the abandoned city block once housed the private antiques collection of Eleanore Ambos.
“The industrial bones of this former factory lend to giant interiors with soaring ceilings and unique architectural details.”
