This was our second visit to Rhinebeck; on our first trip there we stayed at the Rhinecliff, which was fine but not great. While there the first time, we happened upon the Beekman. Being a history lover, my husband and I asked if we could see one of the guest rooms, which the woman at the front desk did with... More

The Beekman Arms has two things going for it, in spades: History and location. This is an old inn, I mean they claim to be the oldest operating inn in the country. It could be...there are some neat old documents and antiques around the place. The location is unbelievable, its right in the heart of Rhinebeck, an ideal location for... More

I stayed at the Beek for several days over Christmas, and am happy to call it a once in a lifetime experience. Granted, you don't get all the mod-cons of the efficient but soulless modern chain hotel. But if you want mod-cons I suggest you stay in an efficient but soulless modern chain hotel.

They should also train staff on giving information about tour attractions in the area. Cottage was on the noisy big road. Positive side:... More

We have been going to Rhinebeck to cut our Christmas tree for approximately 10 years now and have been going to the Beekman Arms for lunch following our tree cutting for about 7 years. Once again we experienced poor service and a long wait for our food. We were a party of 8 and were brought 1 small basket of... More

We found through Tripadvisor, thought it was delightful. We also stayed in room above the front desk, I was warned it may be noisy but didn't find that to be the case . The room was cosy and full of character, what you would expect from an old Inn. perfect location. More
