"A weekend of leaf-peeping is just the thing. You will need a fall-friendly spirit, ample apple cider donuts, cozy knits, and a lovely place to call home base. Now's not the time for sleek amenities (but they're always a welcome addition). A great leaf-peeping headquarters should have some combination of a hearth, large windows, and proximity to foliage. Enter: The best hotels in upstate New York and the northeast."
"One of our top picks for a getaway in New York state, Hotel Lilien has been praised by commerce director Rachel Fletcher as "quite possibly one of the best vantage points for fall foliage in the Catskills." The vintage-decorated hotel is nestled among several forests and mountain ranges so leaf-peeping is guaranteed, even on the occasions you don't seek it out. Outdoor activities abound with close proximity to skiing on Hunter Mountain, and investigating the ample waterfalls around Kaaterskill. From $612 per night."
Opinions vary on when fall begins, but the changing of leaves provides a universal, poetic grounding. City-bound spectators can plan a weekend of leaf-peeping with a fall-friendly spirit, apple cider donuts, cozy knits, and a welcoming home base. Ideal accommodations feature a hearth, large windows, and proximity to foliage rather than sleek amenities. Top hotel choices sit across upstate New York and the broader Northeast, including the Adirondacks, Lake Placid, and the Berkshires. Hotel Lilien offers vintage decor, forest and mountain surroundings, nearby skiing on Hunter Mountain, and access to Kaaterskill waterfalls. Nightly rates for highlighted properties can start around $612.
