"Great Hotel Near Hudson River"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We were in Troy for a wedding and this hotel couldn’t have been in a better location. Everything is within walking distance… restaurants, the historic town, the Hudson River. The hotel itself is comfortable and super clean. I would recommend it for anyone staying in Troy.
