From the earliest colonial times Albany, NY has served as a vital part of America's East Coast in terms of trade, finance, and political influence. Correspondingly, the city benefits from some of the country's most interconnected and extensive transportation networks, a factor that makes it a great destination for visitors and hotel guests of all kinds. Whether you're arriving by car, air, or wish to use public transportation, you'll find this to be one of the most easily-navigable cities in the United States. While Albany's own 'international' airport is a great option for short-range internal flights from the surrounding states and Canada, most visitors who intend to travel here will arrive at one of the major New York airports, like JFK, La Guardia, or Newark Liberty. The latter (being situated closer to New Jersey than Manhattan Island) may be of particular convenience for Albany's visitors, with the New York State Highway (Interstate 87) allowing travel to your lodgings within a couple of hours.

As you'll see echoed in the stately architecture of most Albany luxury hotels, this is a town that wears its antiquity proudly but lightly, with a city center that has maintained its historical flavor while most definitely remaining fit-for-purpose as a modern, 21st century metropolis. If you're in town on business, you might want to check out the great places to stay around the city's financial district bordered by Washington Avenue and Pearl Street. In this area of the city, you'll find many of the major hotel brands that you'll be familiar with from other U.S. and European cities, as well as some esteemed marquees that are unique to the New York State capital. In addition to being close to the city's main business and financial concerns, you'll find this neighborhood to be great for shopping and entertainment, with many of Albany's most celebrated restaurants and bars only a short walk from your lodgings.

With the city remaining relatively unscathed by the recent financial downturn that has afflicted many cities throughout the country, there are many great Albany luxury hotels from which to make your choice, all of which offer supremely comfortable rooms and dedicated staff. Indeed, one of the things that distinguishes this part of New York State from its more celebrated and showy neighbors is the underlying generosity of spirit inherent to the city's inhabitants and, by extension, its hotel staff. Whether you reserve a room at the most humble bed&breakfast lodging or check in at a palatial 5-star suite or penthouse apartment, you'll undoubtedly be struck by how friendly and unaffected the staff you'll encounter are, with personnel at hotels of all kinds exhibiting an easy, infectious charm. This is not to suggest, however, a casual attitude toward service - far from it. Indeed, you'll find that the levels of care and attention to detail that the best hotels in Albany demonstrate is possibly one of the most impressive aspects of your entire stay.

In addition to the wide selection of award-winning downtown Albany luxury hotels, you'll also find some unexpected treasures a bit further afield in the stunning countryside that surrounds the city. In the hinterland between the neighboring cities of Boston to the east, New York City to the south, and Montreal to the north, some of the country's best resort and spa hotels are nestled amongst acres of unspoiled wilderness.

Of course, when you're visiting Albany, luxury hotels are only the beginning of your adventure. With the epic grandeur of Niagara Falls only a short distance away and the stunning vistas of the Adirondack Mountains a constant backdrop, it's worth getting out and about in this beautiful part of America. If you wish to extend the range of your travels, you'll also find more great places to stay throughout the Albany/Upper New York State area that share the same dedication to comfort and value.
