    Pork chop and polenta egg rolls - delicious
    Michael S.

    Beautiful restaurant setting on the highest point in Peekskill overlooking the Hudson River. Valet parking. Lovely grounds. Nicely decorated interior with cozy rooms and good service. Food is good, but lacks that "wow" feeling you get from 5 star cuisine. The pork chop was perfectly cooked and tender, but needs more herb spice like fresh rosemary and thyme. The fresh bucatini pasta with clams was a highlight dish, but the portion was small for one adult. Accompanied by top notch fried polenta rolls - delicious. The Peking Duck was tender but a bit fatty and didn't have that super crispy skin you associate with this Chinese delicacy. Nice spicy sauce. The Cesar salad was classically prepared and the mussels were tender but some were gritty. Very nice experience, but some entrees need a little tweaking.

    The Abbey Inn is absolutely stunning and has rich history, as it was once was an outlook post for George Washington and his army during the Revolutionary War, overlooking the Hudson River. My mom treated me to a spa treatment, dinner, and a nights stay for my birthday. I did not sleep well and could hear everything in the room next door. To the Abbey's defense, it was a couple with three kids and it doesn't seem like a place you would bring kids necessarily. We could clearly hear their conversations. There was an electric fireplace in our room, but it did not work. Items usually provided in a high end hotel were only available upon request at the front desk. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfy. The spa treatment and staff were lovely. There was only one toilet stall in the locker room. I've had the luxury and privilege to go to a couple high end hotel and spas and it just seemed like the Abbey missed the mark in a lot of ways. The fitness center is off site at the apartment buildings up the hill. The spa relaxation room was basic; no reading material or lounging areas, just seats and a couch. The sauna was nice but quite small. I believe there was also only one shower. Plus size robes were available upon request. The slippers were cheap quality. This place absolutely has potential and, again, is stunning, but really doesn't deliver "luxury" unfortunately.

    Stunning Breathtaking Picture Perfect What's not to love! This hotel is so charming and has so many different rooms that it feels more like you're staying in someone's personal castle and not a hotel! We stayed here over Covid and they made us feel safe with how clean the hotel and rooms were! The bar was so cute. We dined at the restaurant and enjoyed a cozy dinner with a nice glass of red. The morning breakfast was fabulous and they have Harney and Sons Paris Tea which is my all time favorite. Really a great hotel but I wish we would have had more time here.

    Wow!!! Cannot recommend this hotel and spa enough. We came for a spa day and got a couple's massage and hung out in the whirlpool and sauna and it was THE DREAM. It's the only day spa in Westchester that offers multiple and top-notch amenities. The former convent-turned-luxury hotel is set on a hill, majestically overlooking the Hudson River. It's unreal. Every view is stunning and the food at their restaurant Apropos was delicious too (get the burger and the Caesar salad). We were here a couple of hours and it felt like a vacation in a day. Cannot wait to come back and hopefully stay over (they were sold out when we booked)! This is a very special place. 5 stars!!!!

    I am finally writing my review from my stay in July! Loved my visit to the Abbey and Spa! I would describe it as relaxed luxury. The service was very attentive and accommodating. The actual grounds of the property are exquisite. Beautiful pollinator gardens pretty much lined all of the pathways. I enjoyed all the meals and drinks we had at Apropos. I felt they had enough options for many different dietary needs. The room was very clean and comfortable. Special shout-out to Jhonny who made our dining experience in Apropos restaurant and Joe who commanded the bar with ease. Both of them were so great and I found myself truly laughing with them they were so fun to be around. I left feeling renewed and peaceful.

    We were rooting hard for this badly needed addition to Northern Westchester hotels and restaurants. While we certainly would stay here again, the number of "little things" were annoying enough to get our attention. The GREAT The grounds, the buildings, the views, cleanliness, room comfort, bed, and couch. The quality of the food and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Weekend breakfast and coffee in the garden (truly magnificent). They spent big time to create a truly wonderful and relaxing atmosphere with sooo much eye candy! The GOOD Accessibility to highways, proximity to our friends and family and the fact that Erin used to work at Marea and knew my master sommelier friend. Other folks we knew happened to stop in too! Small world stuff. The bagged breakfast to go... The BAD The bathroom door whose latch and strike plate are inches apart. The door does not close. The missing cover from our digital room lock. The lack of food service from Sunday afternoon until bagged breakfast on Monday. No dinner on Monday when many local restaurants are also closed. No food to buy for lunch - gotta get up and go, which is usually ok, except for crappy weather days. Getting locked out on the patio with 7 other folks because the programmable locks don't work (typical according to staff) and no one answered the phone at the front desk. At Apropos Restaurant on Saturday night, one of five guests for dinner, asking for the kitchen to not fire my entree until signaled --then getting my entree five seconds after my appetizer dish was removed. And..the couple across from me got their entreesB EFORE their app dishes were cleared. The pool is shared with the Fort Hill apartments and managed by them. Went to the pool on Saturday afternoon and the bathroom was disgusting. Underwear on the floor, dirty paper towels everywhere, overflowing garbage bin. You cannot provide this as an amenity if those responsible cannot do the job to the same standard as your expensive hotel. All of these issues were reported to restaurant and hotel management. Let's hope they manage to get all of these little things ironed out before our next trip north.

    lookin' like a lil chateau in the countryside...

    The Abbey Inn & Spa is one of the nicer hotels i've been to in the world. The grounds are lovely, and the view of the Hudson gives you the impression you're in a painting - it's gorgeous, surreal -- refreshing. We noticed a wedding happening the Saturday afternoon we checked in, and it's clear the couple chose a really nice venue. i scoped out Trip Advisor to get a comprehensive view of what to expect, and all of the glowing reviews are well-deserved. The property is very clean, and we appreciated the policy of only assigning rooms 48 hours after guests have departed during this ongoing COVID pandemic. We selected a Garden View room - basically on the first floor, with not much of view except of a few wonderfully manicured rows of flowers and the parking lot beyond. The hotel has been recently renovated, so we appreciated how new our room felt. The walk-in shower was spacious, which was good because we had our squirmy 9-month old with us. The king-sized bed was really comfy, with clean linens - it gave the 3 of us great sleep! Overall, we'd definitely return to the Abbey. Be aware though - the stay was quite pricey - $515 for one night - but it was worth finally venturing outta the city for the weekend. The hotel is near other sites in Peekskill that we enjoyed visiting, so we felt we mostly got the value for what we spent.

    I went to The Abbey Inn & Spa and was utterly blown away. The grounds are spectacular and service to match. We were fortunate to meet Joe, the bartender who luckily is a historian. Joe shared the history of The Abbey and the well appointed gardens, private dinner location, chapel and the bar which used to be mother superior's office. The Abbey apparently was Episcopalian and not catholic. The view of the Hudson is stunning but it was the buildings, and gardens for that brought this place to the 5 star level. We had a burger and salad - which was really good. Try the tequila expresó martini- we'll be going back for that!

    The Abbey Inn and Spa exceeded all expectations! The front desk associates Tamika and Jackie were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making check-in a breeze. The facilities are nothing short of breathtaking - from the serene spa to the beautifully designed rooms. Chef Danielle's culinary expertise left me in awe; every dish was a masterpiece. I'm already dreaming of the day I can have my wedding there - it would undoubtedly be a magical event at The Abbey! If you have and event need speak to Tara she's and angel.

While some maps will indicate a 1-mile walk on a some unappealing looking roads, but the riverfront waterway will get you there. Let's call a 17-minute walk. Travel light! There's outstanding waterfront scenery at Charles Point Park. There appear to be two restaurants walkable from the hotel. I walked to the village of Peekskill but normal people won't want to do that (not a bad Uber ride presumably). On more hotel-specific factors, the shower pressure was excellent, the room was far bigger than usual and all the workers were friendly and helpful.

They advertise a hot breakfast (bear in mind we paid over $300 for a 2 queen room). Breakfast was from 6am to 10am. It was a weekend and we got there around 9:25am. There was literally no food. There was only one member of staff who was manning all the breakfast stations. Took him a good 15 minutes to refill the food and at 9;45 her announced that the food he had just replenished was the last even though guests had been waiting 15 minutes and the food he had laid out was gone in less than 5 minutes because people had been lining up for ages. To add insult to injury once the food trays in the warmers were gone (I'm literally 3 minutes), he took them away to wash and that was it. And then the breakfast are was closed at 9:55am.

The next day our room still was not cleaned when we returned from our hike around 2:30 p.m. The dirty dishes were still there. We were told it would be cleaned after all the rooms that needed to be ready for incoming arrivals were done. So we could not shower or take a nap while waiting for housekeeping.
