The Landing Hotel was a first class place to stay after a long day of riding our bikes on the Hudson Mohawk Trail. The staff is outstanding, the rooms are clean and comfortable with all the amenities. Only drawback is that there is limited dining outside the property. It’s right on the trail so this was a great location for us to rest, shower and recharge before continuing our journey. Great job!
