In the Media
There was a time when being “in the media” meant you had either a placement on broadcast television, radio, or a print material. Today the definition of that phrase is so broad that it’s difficult to pinpoint what it even means anymore. Regardless, we thought you might like to read or see some of the kind shout outs we have received since we first opened our doors in 2004. From our recent segment on CBS News to our fun features on the TLC, HGTV, and Animal Planet networks to being listed twice on Travel & Leisure’s 2023 list of the 20 Most Beautiful Hotel Bathrooms in the World to being a Conde Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Award recipient for a top ten hotel in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region The Most Instagrammable Hotel in North Amercia for 2020 to being named Tourism Executive of the Year by the New York State Hospitality and Tourism association; we’ve amassed a variety of press over the years and thought, well, if you have nothing better to do you might want to binge-click through some of it. We try our best to keep this page updated, but usually there are some more recent mentions than what appears at the top. Mr. DeMille, we’re ready for our close-up.
