Nautical Nest

“Cute boutique hotel in a great location!”

I chose to stay at the Nautical Nest for my second trip to Hudson, NY. I liked that it was closer to shops, galleries, and restaurants on the west side of Warren St that I had missed during a previous visit. The Nautical Nest is the second property of the owners of Nest Hudson. Of the four units, I booked a second floor room with a balcony after researching details on several third party websites. As the name suggests, the room had a nautical theme with a well-chosen decor and nice finishes. It included a king-sized bed (very comfortable mattress), chest of drawers topped with a beverage station, and a desk. The bathroom was bright, with great quality towels and strong shower pressure. Nest Hudson shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner were provided. My favorite feature, however, was the Nespresso coffeemaker in the room! This was very convenient, and I was happy to have a high quality coffee everyday. I also enjoyed the balcony for morning coffee and to relax later in the day. An outdoor patio is next to the building. There is also a communal kitchen with a small fridge, microwave, and tea kettle that some guests seemed to use quite often. Individually wrapped snacks and tea are located there, and replenished every few days. A few tips: 1. The Nautical Nest listings on multiple third party websites state that there is "free parking." In reality, it is free STREET parking. Fortunately, I visited during a less busy week, so I was able to secure parking on the same street as the hotel, City Hall Pl, most days. However, parking is not allowed there from 9pm Wednesday to 8am Thursday, so I moved my car to the nearby Union St. Unfortunately, Union St is subject to alternate street parking rules. There is no signage to indicate which is an "even" vs "odd" side of the street, so a ticket will be issued if you park on the wrong side of the street. I was unaware of this parking issue prior to booking my reservation. I notified the owners to update their third party website listings. They may also want to arrange parking for guests in a nearby municipal lot as some other hotels on Warren St have done. 2. The Nautical Nest is an older building, so floors and stairs are creaky. You will hear anyone who is up and about early, including housekeeping. If your room has a window A/C unit, street noise will be quite audible (road construction, back up truck alarms, etc). I purchased ear plugs after waking up to the sound of a jack hammer the first morning of my stay. Prior to my arrival, I also received two requests to "keep noise at a minimum" and "be mindful of other guests" in informational emails from management. I also received an additional reminder when notified that my room was ready for check in. Although I understand the intent, I thought this was a bit much. Overall, the Nautical Nest is a quality boutique hotel. I enjoyed my room as it was quite spacious and comfortable. Although I was stressed about the parking situation, other guests may be less concerned. If you are a "morning person," the sounds inside and outside of the building may not be bothersome.

“Nice but this is NOt a hotel”

This is effectively an Airbnb, not a hotel. The unit was nice but I would not call this an hotel. Good to have coffee in the room and shared kitchen with other items but all things in this location were in the cheap side.

This is effectively an Airbnb, not a hotel. The unit was nice but I would not call this an hotel. Good to have coffee in the room and shared kitchen with other items but all things in this location were in the cheap side. Not espresso but rather "best press" for example... it is a renewed townhouse in a deserted street with auto checking. I would post this location in Airbnb and not in the hotel section of agoda where we booked it . None of the reviews or descriptions included this information.
