The engaging downtown presents an eclectic cluster of shops, where humble hardware stores and old-fashioned diners mingle with SoHo-style galleries and gourmet food shops. It garners international attention as the home to contemporary art mecca DIA. Best of all, it\u2019s just a few minutes stroll from the Metro-North train station, an easy 60-mile from ride from midtown.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/roundhousebeacon.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Roundhouse<\/a>, a boutique hotel inspired by Beacon\u2019s rich artisan legacy and green-thumb food scene, is tempting visitors to spend a night or weekend.

Historical preservation and a strong sense of place are paramount at this design-centric hotel. Original materials have been repurposed with panache. It\u2019s an aesthetic fantasy for those who appreciate an effort to lean local: light fixtures, tiles, tables and beds are made by talented craftspeople who live and create in the Hudson Valley.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Find more hotels near Beacon:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><ins class=\"bookingaff\" data-aid=\"2185878\" data-target_aid=\"2185878\" data-prod=\"map\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"590\" data-lang=\"ualng\" data-dest_id=\"0\" data-dest_type=\"landmark\" data-latitude=\"41.5048158\" data-longitude=\"-73.9695832\" data-landmark_name=\"Beacon\" data-mwhsb=\"0\" data-address=\"Beacon, NY, USA\"><br \/>\n    <!-- Anything inside will go away once widget is loaded. --><br \/>\n        <a href=\"\/\/www.booking.com?aid=2185878\">Booking.com<\/a><br \/>\n<\/ins><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    (function(d, sc, u) {\n      var s = d.createElement(sc), p = d.getElementsByTagName(sc)[0];\n      s.type = 'text\/javascript';\n      s.async = true;\n      s.src = u + '?v=' + (+new Date());\n      p.parentNode.insertBefore(s,p);\n      })(document, 'script', '\/\/aff.bstatic.com\/static\/affiliate_base\/js\/flexiproduct.js');\n<\/script><br \/>\nThe 41 rooms are situated in two buildings (low-season rates start at $189 per night). The custom-crafted furniture and un-cluttered style may be just the elixir you\u2019re craving after spending your days and nights in cramped city apartments. Do yourself a favor and book a room with a view of Beacon Falls. In my suite, even the bathtub had a direct sightline of the rushing water. Stop by Beacon Bath &amp; Bubble and purchase some of their artfully packaged handmade soaps and bath salts before you hit the water.

He established himself as a culinary legend in New York City at Picholine and Artisanal, earning a wealth of critical accolades and 2 stars in the Michelin Guide. His decision to relocate to the Hudson Valley pushed him towards a deeper embrace of sustainable farming practices. Brennan is a nose-to-tail devotee and his kitchen makes use of the entire animal. Offal is embraced with exemplary specimens of pig ears, headcheese and trotters available for the adventurous eater. The \u00e0 la&nbsp;carte and tasting menus read like an encyclopedia of the best Hudson Valley farms and purveyors. You\u2019ll feast on grains milled at <a href=\"https:\/\/wildhivefarm.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wild Hive<\/a>, dabble in greens from Obercreek,&nbsp;duck from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.labellefarms.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Labelle Farm<\/a> and freshly foraged mushrooms from nearby fields. The menu is consistently excellent, but fish is prepared with a delicate touch. The striped bass poached in whey and New Bedford diver sea scallops are ambrosial. The risotto combines grains of spelt, emmer and wheat berries and is further enriched with flecks of sweet butternut squash, earthy mushrooms and still-crunchy kale. Desserts are sublime so you have permission to indulge.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Do<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-55755 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Grufnik.jpg\" alt=\"dia beacon sculpture\" width=\"1024\" height=\"651\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-55755 size-full lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Grufnik.jpg\" alt=\"dia beacon sculpture\" width=\"1024\" height=\"651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Grufnik.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Grufnik-350x223.jpg 350w, https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Grufnik-768x488.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.diaart.org\/visit\/visit\/diabeacon-beacon-united-states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dia\u2019s <\/a>global reputation has helped solidify Beacon as a player in the art world.
