About

On WeddingWire since 2019

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.

Stunning Wedding Venue

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!!!

A Perfect Day

We had a wonderful experience at The Abbey Inn & Spa. Catherine was a pleasure to work with in the months leading up to the event. She was responsive, helpful and professional at all times. Bri, who was the day-of coordinator, was amazing. She was everywhere at once and made sure everything was taken care of. The grounds at the Abbey are stunning and the ballroom is beautiful. The staff was so accommodating. Everyone is still talking about what an amazing event we had!

Dream wedding at the Abbey Inn

I fell in love with the Abbey Inn at first sight after spending countless hours researching venues in the Hudson Valley online. It’s such a special place to us, we have only had amazing experience through the planning process all the way to the big day. When we first visited the venue, the general manager gave the loveliest tour of the gorgeous property with all of the history behind it. We had lunch at Apropos which completely won me over, I am a huge foodie and I knew I wanted my guest to have the same premier farm to table experience we had. While there were a couple changes in management during the 16 month wedding planning process, each point of contact was better than the next. Catherine was fantastic to work with, she was patient, kind and organized. I did not have a wedding planner so I am eternally grateful to her and the team for pulling off the best wedding ever. We went up to the Abbey Inn for our tasting 3 months before the wedding which was SO special and one of the most memorable days of our engagement. Again, the food completely WOW’ed us and my husband even chose one of their cocktails for his signature drink because it was so yummy! Catherine took us for a tour of the property and helped us to envision all the spaces for the big day, you can tell she is passionate about her work and actually cares for those she works with. She answered every single one of my questions with patience and put me at ease during a pretty stressful time. A couple weeks prior to the event, we were introduced to Briana, the events manager who would be helping to coordinate the day of the wedding. Little did I know at the time, she would my guardian angel for the ENTIRE weekend. We checked in on Friday night since we were having our rehearsal dinner at the Abbey as well. it was so wonderful to have the bridal suite which has a conjoining room. My husband and I were able to sleep in separate beds the night before to keep with tradition. The next morning, we transformed the bridal suite to a salon where all the girls got their hair and make up done. The guys got to enjoy lunch and hung out in the executive boardroom (one of my favorite spaces). Each event space in the Abbey is absolutely gorgeous and so special to us. I was super worried about the weather because we were planning for an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Briana was totally on top of the weather and helped us to pivot to a fully indoor event at the very last minute, she really helped ease my anxiety about the entire situation. I was SO impressed with how her and and her team were able to pull off the pivot since we made the call on the day of the wedding. The entire day went off without a hitch, Briana was an absolute rockstar corralling my wedding party and dealing with the chaos which is my family! She was so on top of the timeline and made sure the event went as smooth as possible. As the bride, it’s such an intense day, I really appreciated her level of detail from coordinating my vendors all the way to making sure my dress was properly bustled. I seriously could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator. If there’s one reason to book this venue, it would be for the service!!! It was the most beautiful and memorable day of our lives, all thanks to the Abbey Inn.
