Detailed Reviews
This property has a handful of buildings.
Our room in the Germond House was very musty. I found it very uncomfortable, though it's true that I am sensitive to mold. We didn't ask to change rooms because my husband liked the spaciousness of the room (we had a suite). I was pretty unhappy though.
I understand these are old, historic buildings. I just thought that for the price we paid ($339/night for a suite), the buildings would have been significantly renovated. At a minimum, they should start by replacing the carpeting or at least giving it a deep cleaning.
I was also pretty unimpressed with the breakfast. Could they not have managed some sort of fresh baked goods? Perhaps this was a covid issue of being short on staffing or resources; I don't know what their usual breakfast is. I understand that fresh croissants might be hard if they don't have kitchen staff on duty in the morning (but is there no place in town that could sell them to them?) but muffins would be easy to make the night before.
Also, they offered hard boiled eggs but only one set of salt and pepper at the table—rather awkward, particularly in a covid situation. The staff were helpful in bringing me another set though when I asked.

Response from Beekman Arms, Agency / Consultant at Beekman Arms and Delamater Inn
Responded Sep 18, 2020
Hello LauraThreeBridges, Thank you for your recent stay, we are sorry that there seemed to be some issues. We are sorry that you had found the room musty, we wish that you would have told us so that we could at least try to make the situation better for you, whether it was another cleaning, a dehumidifier or switching to another room in the same building, it is always best to allow us to even try to rectify the situation before you are gone, we want our guests to be happy during their stay. For the breakfast, we are again sorry that you were disappointed, we are trying to at least offer something to our guests while also staying in line with the restrictions that have been put in place by our government officials. We cannot buy croissants from another establishment because we do not price our rooms to include the cost of breakfast, it is an amenity we offer, an internal operating cost; therefore we cannot go and spend a lot of money on fresh pastries without upping the price of the rooms to take these extra costs into account. Again we are sorry about the experience we had, we hope that you will return for another visit and a better experience.

We had lunch here at the Beekman Arms Inn (tavern & Delamater Inn) Wed June 28, 2030 12:30pm. This colonial America tavern & inn has been continuously operated since 1766. Right on NYS Rt 9 in Rhinebeck, NY with many other interesting places nearby to visit & explore. Rhinebeck is a very walkable area.
My friend from college & I played a round of golf at Dinsmore-a NYS operated golf course in nearby Staatsburg. A nice course that I'll review shortly. Then met with our wives here for lunch. They live in Hyde Park & are familiar with "The Beek".
Indoor & outdoor dining, many dining rooms and we chose the tavern. The Tavern at The Beekman Arms serves lunch and dinner seven days a week year round and Brunch on Sundays. The Colonial Tap Room featuring overhead beams, open hearth fireplace, and a charming bar is a must see. Lunch is served from 11:30am-3:00pm.
Our server was Alexis J. She was friendly, patient, and very competent. She brought the menus & water and we ordered some craft draft beers & wine. Drinks were half off at lunch ($4ea). Yeah for us! We all had sandwiches: tavern cheesesteak (lunch special $9.50), loaded tavern burger ($8.50), grilled vegetables on a baguette ($8.50), and my Hudson Valley BLT ($7) was outstanding. Note: our lunches were half-off also. Sweet! All sandwiches were w/ kettle chips, served together and at proper temperature. A very delicious lunch at a great price. Lunch is a great value here.
We had a great time catching up w/ our friends of 55 years.
The Tavern has a solid reputation & did not disappoint.
Thank you to Alexis J and the staff at The Tavern. We had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. We'll visit again soon.

The town of Rhinebeck is lovely and the Beekman is located in the center of it all. You can walk, shop, eat and never get in your car. We loved the location! The restaurant at the Inn is top notch! We needed a King size bed and thus opted for a room in the annex (Rooms 41 and 42) as there are no King size beds in the Inn. The annex is rather dreary looking and very moist - but they did have a dehumidifier in each room. The bed mattress was VERY firm. BUT…. The room was quite spacious with a table and 2 chairs, a refrigerator and a desk. Another plus was that there was a terrace with a table and 4 chairs outside our door which allowed us an outdoor space for gathering and having a glass of wine. There are no coffee makers in the room but the Inn has coffee and tea service each morning starting at 6:30AM. The positive side of staying in the annex is that we could wheel our luggage from our car to our room but the funky moist smell stayed in our clothes and I am not sure I would stay in the Annex again. I did not see rooms in the Inn.

Room off the main building was good enough - clean and so no critique there.
Here is where the Beekman failed: Our reservation for dinner was unavailable so a table was “stuck in” next to a heater vent, which forced us to move as we started perspiring. During the wait, no drink , water, anything was offered.
Dinner was “ok” but the server would not offer us a one time wine taste due “its cost”. We asked the manager who complied.
The party room was virtually empty with cold and cheap buffet food. The DJ was a relic from the 70’s and many guests wore work boots.
Now the great part - breakfast, and I say that tongue in cheek was served until 9:30 meaning when we found out at 9:20, we ran to the restaurant to be treated with a stone cold array of powdered eggs, cold toast, cold French toast, stale fruit and no coffee. This one day people sleep in, being Jan 1, one would think that in the facility would have figured that out. The answer was that they “have to get ready for lunch”. I did contact the management twice but they ignored me.
Final rating is PRIMITIVE.

This place is a bona fide rip off. We were repeatedly assured we would be in the Inn proper. When we arrived, we were told that would be impossible although no one could explain what impossible meant. We were placed in the alternative Inn, which proved to be a Holiday Inn level room with multiple issues. 1. AC could not be adjusted, turned off or in any way changed. 2. There is apparently a severe shortage of sheetrock repair people in Rhinebeck. The tape was only superficially spackled and was also water stained. 3. Not a SINGLE picture or artwork on any walls. Yes, the walls were completely blank, as if the room was not even finished. The towels (really bar rags) were old and there was one small towel for each person. 4. The rug was dank and smelled. 5. Another guest upstairs was loud all night. A call to the front desk said help was on the way, they must have called the unavailable sheetrock guy. No one appeared. 6. Anyone selling the alternative rooms should be ashamed of themselves.

My friends and I had a little reunion and stayed for a night at the historical Beekman Arms in Rhinebeck. We treated ourselves to a suite which was about $430. When found our way to the old firehouse, the room itself was freezing and looked like it hadn’t been used in months. The bathroom and various surfaces in the room had dead flies. Surely someone attending the room would have noticed this. We paid so much money and there wasn’t a nicety added by the hotel for our stay - no welcome note or even water. The front desk was totally lacking in personality or even care for us as guests. When we asked about the room being quite cold and if they could check the heater, the attendant said they’d bring a heater to the room. Not an apology or a smidgeon of warmth. When we returned to the room, the (small) heater was there - but it wasn’t turned on. All that time it could’ve been warming the place! It took over an hour to make the room bearable. We found the front desk staff to be inhospitable for an inn of such distinction. Even after our evening drink in one of the drawing rooms, the front desk attendent never even said goodnight as we left. The morning brunch crew redeemed our experience, and when we left for good, the nice hostess said goodbye. Still, we were left cold at the Beekman Arms - such a disappointment!

Thank you for choosing to stay with us, we are very sorry to hear you didn't find your accommodations with us to be acceptable. We want to apologize for the condition of the room upon your entry. It was unacceptable that the room was not attended to the morning before you checked in. Our procedure is that every room is gone into every day, and unfortunately your room was missed. The front desk has been notified of what happened and wants to extend an apology. Procedures are being gone over so that in the future our guests feel appreciated and know that we are here to make their stay the most enjoyable possible. We hope that you will give us another chance to see how wonderful a stay with us can be.

We had a nice one night stay at the Beekman Arms for my birthday in March, for which we were billed and paid at the time we booked the stay. On my next credit card statement I saw that the hotel not only billed me for our stay, two weeks later they erroneously billed me for another night and week after that they billed me for a 3rd night. I called and spoke to Teri Shaker at the front desk. She apologized and told me that the 2 nights were billed in error and the amounts would be credited to my card. They were not and during the next 6 weeks I left numerous phone messages for Ms. Shaker. At first she told me I should check with my credit card, which I did and assured her that there was no credit. Eventually, she stopped returning my calls. I just disputed the 2 charges with my credit card company and I hope they have better luck than I had. A word to the wise, if you stay at the Beekman Arms, look closely at your bill and keep an eye on your credit card statements, they are not to be trusted.

Having read previous reviews, we nearly cancelled, but found a charming antique of a hotel. Yes, the floors creak, but who doesn't at 200+ years old. Yes, the room door has a gap at the bottom, but it needs to clear uneven floors and carpets. The room was clean, with a tall, pillow-topped bed and good fixtures in the bath. The staff was helpful and professional. A small miscommunication was solved quickly. In all, our three-day, "let's just do it" stay was lovely.

The Beekman arms is not like it used to be it used to be warm and friendly and charming now it’s very stalky cold. Their heat is put on for an hour or two a day even though it’s cold outside 50° and the rooms are cold and breakfast is pathetic cause it’s not in the end where you’re sleeping you have to walk two blocks away to get continental breakfast which was very sparse. So when you go downstairs in the morning in the main end from waking up and going out for breakfast, I would like to say good morning to the front desk staff but they just keep looking at their computer make you feel really unwelcome. The room amenities are pathetic. They’re tiny little 1 ounce little cream shampoos and conditioners and they don’t some of them. Don’t even get out of the bottle. They’re so stale they’re stuck. It’s totally totally pathetic for the price of the rooms three nights almost $1000 to sleep. Two people upstairs in the end.

Stay here if you want to spend the day perusing a sweet town with a great book store, cute shops and good restaurants and then take your newly purchased books and good vibes to a hotel that bills itself as an “inn” but you instead you will focus on the moment where you are “out”. Loud, drunk yahoos shouting from an attached porch and guests loudly entering and exiting Inn’s restaurant until late at night will destroy your ability to relax or enjoy your room. You will seriously consider leaving in the middle of the night.
This place could be great. But it’s not. You will leave tired, stressed out and wishing you never heard of it. Instead, check into the nearest chain hotel. Zero charm, but there will be more then one working outlet, the mattresses won’t slide off the bed frame, you will be able to relax and enjoy that newly purchased book - and you will sleep.

We were in 1 of 4 Guest Houses (rooms) behind the main hotel which did not have fireplaces.
I was once offered two twin beds in the main inn, so there is at least one room with two beds. But you have to call the hotel.
Have no idea. Did you try to reach the Beekman Arms?
