I booked this inn before reading the reviews and am really glad I did so after because otherwise I probably would have stayed elsewhere. SemioticSymphony's review gets it the closest to accurate for me. But there's something about decay that I do find beautiful though perhaps not at the $308 it cost for one night. Set in a hill overlooking... More

I just returned from a 1 night stay in Belverdere Mansion's Hunt Lodge master suite and was very disappointed. The pictures from the website look spectacular but the master suite is old, musky, and underwhelming. The furniture has a nice feel to the room but dont try to open or close the draws because they may fall off. In addition,... More

My wife and i went up for an overnight stay this past weekend to explore Rhinebeck with our toddler. Given the unexpected snow storm, it was a bit of a stressful trip to begin, but i must say that the service and hospitality at this B&B was very enjoyable. Havnig read a few reviews on trip advisor, after booking, i... More

If there were a rating in between average and poor, maybe that's what I would rate the Belvedere Mansion. My husband and I attended the wedding of a dear friend - in order to have her wedding there, she had to guarantee to fill ALL the rooms on the property, and there was no discounted room rate. Full price for... More

Either you like it or you hate it, or so go the reviews for this interesting property fortuitously situated between Hyde Park and Rhinebeck. This is not a hotel. I say that because if you go to the Belvedere expecting any of the amenities offered by a hotel charging the same nightly rates you will simply hate this place. Yes,... More

This was really a mixed experience. The setting is beautiful, the two-room suite was perfect for a family of three, and the breakfast was excellent. The problem was the front-desk service and specifically the manager, with whom we had repeated poor interactions, and had the feeling she was doing us a favor by letting us stay there - at one...

Never again will I be seduced by a hotel web site without checking Trip Advisor! Like the other negative reviews listed, I too had a terrible night in the strangely named "Zen Lodge" at Belvedere Mansion. The name conjures up peace, tranquility and serenity but only a Zen Master could perhaps ignore the dingy, dark space saturated with a musty,... More

My husband and I always stay at the Whistlewood when we visit the area. This time we were celebrating an anniversary and the Whistlewood booked up really fast. We saw the reviews for the Belvedere Mansion and although it looks great on the website, decided to look elsewhere for a hotel. We found nothing that was even remotely as beautiful... More

I have never written a review of a hotel, but I am moved to do so after a very unpleasant experience at the Belvedere. I could kick myself for not checking tripadvisor before booking. My room was in the Zen Lodge which is moldy, musty, strangely dark (I think so that visitors cannot see the streaks of dead mosquitoes on... More
