An enchanted retreat set at the gateway to the Hudson Highlands in Peekskill, New York, The Abbey Inn & Spa is nestled on a hillside overlooking the Hudson River. The boutique hotel welcomes with distinctive guest rooms and suites, stunning meeting and event settings, serene gardens, a tranquil spa and fitness center, as well as Apropos—a farm-to-table, Mediterranean-inspired dining destination that celebrates the bounty of the Hudson Valley -- just one hour from Grand Central Terminal and 3 minutes from the Peekskill Metro North Station.
As the Lower Hudson Valleys newest and most unique catering venue, The Abbey Inn offers a diverse selection of spectacular spaces for milestone events, intimate family celebrations & enchanted weddings to remember. Enjoy a beautiful seasonal event with or without a tent on the Grand Terrace as a separate function or in conjunction with adjacent Highlands Ballroom. Options include a wedding ceremony overlooking The Hudson River, followed by a cocktail reception on The Grand Terrace returning to the ballroom for an elegant feast and dancing.
The Highlands Ballroom, located in the former church, is The Abbey Inn's premier event space offering undeniable "wow factor." At over 2,000 square feet with cathedral ceilings, this soaring space can be customized for a wide range of gatherings from a spectacular wedding to a business conference with full A/V capabilities.
The Cornerstone Room at The Abbey Inn, located in the former convent, is the perfect venue for smaller events or a more intimate wedding. This beautiful 742 square-foot room, adorned with historic hand painted ecclesiastical wall coverings and stained-glass windows, complimented with contemporary lighting, creates a one-of-a-kind memorable space. This unique room is located in the hotel building within the former convent chapel and features a double height cathedral ceiling.
Key to The Abbey Inn & Spa’s uniqueness is it's location on historic Fort Hill, site of an American outpost during the Revolutionary War, as well as its setting within the former convent of the Episcopal Sisters of Saint Mary’s, built at the turn of the century.

We actually just held our daughter's wedding here, and used 5 rooms. The architecture and gardens are absolutely stunning. The food is amazing, filet mignon, branzino, etc. The rooms are beautiful. The people who work there are friendly and helpful. They even did the entire wedding gluten-free. We loved everything about The Abbey.
- We had the ceremony in the Cornerstone room, photos outdoors overlooking the Hudson, cocktail hour on The Bluff, the reception in the Highlands ballroom, the rehearsal dinner in the Grand Terrace, and the farewell breakfast in the Hudson room. The couple stayed in the bridal suite, which included a separate sitting room and a large balcony. All rooms were beautiful. Everyone especially loved the Cornerstone room, which is hand-painted with Latin words and saints. The Highlands ballroom looks like a castle.
- The entire wedding was gluten-free, which is difficult, but they were very accommodating to our needs. They also were careful of other special diets.
- We also had a handicap-accessible room for grandparents, and it was the most beautiful handicap room anyone had ever seen. It had a large balcony with table and rocking chairs, walk-in shower, and low bed.
- The people there were very helpful. At breakfast, a waitress told our guests the history of the hand-painted cornerstone room. It was painted by a nun, who continued painting until she was 89. The room was restored several years ago, and restored by hand. A man who helped set up the ballroom told us the history of the hotel and the ballroom also. It was built in 1872 and was an abbey for 100 years. It was meticulously restored from about 2017-2020, and opened in March 2020 - right at the start of covid. Everyone seems to really love the place. The wedding & events specialist worked closely with us, and was by our side throughout the weekend.
- Even if you are just going there for a weekend, lunch, or dinner, this is a fabulous place. It even has a happy hour with burgers, ricotta toast, and half-price drinks. It is such a beautiful place, it truly looks like a European castle, or Abbey. It is a gem in New York!!!

The most PERFECT wedding venue!!!
Where do I even begin?! The Abbey was the absolute PERFECT choice for our wedding. I truly cannot say enough fabulous things about how special this location is and how amazing they were to work with for our special day. We held our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, after party, and brunch all at the Abbey in mid-June, and every single one was absolute perfection. Gina was a DREAM to work with -- I felt like we had our own personal wedding planner throughout the entire process. She answered all (and I mean ALL) of our emails, calls, questions, etc. and when I arrived at the Abbey for our wedding weekend I felt totally calm, cool, and collected knowing that Gina was running the show. And of course, there are no words to describe how beautiful and magical this property is both inside and out! Most of our guests stayed at the hotel so we were all able to really take advantage of the property throughout the weekend and every single staff member made us and our family and friends feel special and welcomed. The food was amazing, everything was well organized, coordinated, and beautiful... what more can I say?! I am so grateful we found a place where we could really build an entire weekend, and I am even more grateful that the Abbey helped us to coordinate it all as seamlessly as they did! I can't wait to go back and visit our special place for many many years to come!

More perfect than we hoped for!
We found the Abbey Inn when it was still under construction in 2019. My daughter's wedding was set for May 2020 but was cancelled due to the pandemic. Eileen was beyond flexible, allow us to change the date three times! The happy day finally happened on Saturday and I couldn't be more pleased with the result. Thanks to Gina, Joe and the Chef for a memorable day!
The Abbey Inn & Spa's reply:
Thank you, Dawn, for taking the time to write such an amazing review. It was our honor and greatest pleasure to assist you with planning Kathryn & Kyle's dream wedding. I absolutely loved seeing the tears of excitement come to Kathryn's eyes when she stepped into the ballroom all setup and realized her big day was finally happening! It was such a pleasure meeting you and your family, and I wish you all joy and happiness. Gina, Joe, Chef Jarod & the entire staff at The Abbey.
