I decided to take my husband away to Onteora House to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. What a disappointment at $285 per night. When we arrived, we were greeted by a cold, stodgy innkeeper, who was not inviting at all, to say the least. He gave us a quick, disinterested tour of the main house, then pointed us in the... More

I was looking for a quality Bed&Breakfast weekend retreat not too far away from NYC and got much more than that: beautiful country house with a perfect location (overseeing the mountains), top notch breakfast cooking and extremely helpful owner.

The views from the rooms and the viewing decks are breathtaking. One needs to stay here to truly appreciate the view and the service. The... More

My wife and I were looking for a quiet getaway for our anniversary. Her boss told us about Onteora and we were thrilled with what we found there. The Inn is uniquely situated on a secluded hillside with spectacular views of the Catskills. Although we stayed in one of the private cottages, we were able to peek at the guestrooms... More
