The staff went above and beyond, the location beautiful and the common room and deck fabulous. Breakfast and snacks way better than typical. Would have preferred a larger bed and a little better soundproofing between floors though. Would definitely return any time in the area.

I just returned from a long weekend at the Minnewaska Lodge with my husband and toddler daughter. We all had a wonderful experience. The view from the back porch is extraordinary and the grounds are spectacular. The room was clean, the bed comfortable and they provided us with a pack n play for our daughter. The staff was incredibly kind... More

Spent two days here, would have stayed longer if they weren't booked out. Great rooms, lovely people and in such a beautiful setting. Stayed in king bed room with deck looking over cliff view which was perfect. I unfortunately was pretty ill and they bent over backwards to help giving us a tray of food at 6am so I could... More

We stayed at Minnewaska Lodge for two nights and we had a lovely time. The lodge is in the most beautiful setting! You should try to get a cliff view room- the view of the cliffs is just spectacular. The grounds are well maintained and have trails that lead right off of them. There is also plenty of hiking, climbing... More

We came across Minnewaska lodge five years ago, when someone in town mentioned that they stayed there. We were immediately entranced with the open space, the location to the gunks, and the delightful customer service, and lowkey but lovely decor. What we really love is a place that offers tranquility, beauty, and the friendliest most intimate atmosphere and staff -... More

We loved every minute of staying at the Minnewaska Lodge. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The facilities were just right - clean, comfortable and simple. The property was beautiful and well kept. We LOVED the fire pits, a perfect way to relax and enjoy the night sky. Overall, this place is a bargain and an awesome getaway!

We stayed here for a few nights on our way from NYC to Niagara Falls. It's a nice place and very relaxing with pretty grounds and spacious rooms. Maybe it's because I'm from the west, but I thought the word lodge was a bit too grand for this hotel. It seemed a bit too small and with too few amenities... More

We looked around several different areas of NY state for a vacation, and eventually settled on the Minnewaska Lodge in Gardiner. It's actually outside Gardiner, off a major local highway that carries traffic between the Catskills/Shawangunks & the Hudson Valley area. The hotel itself is back from the road far enough to be quiet and relaxing, and most rooms face... More

I recently stayed on the Lodge on business travel. Right from check in the whole experience was a pure pleasure. From the check in staff to the cleaning lady. Everyone was courteous, helpful and couldn't seem to do enough for us. I stayed in a king bed room with a balcony looking at The Gunks. What a beautiful view. The... More
