The Francis Hall
House
Private Suites, Private Baths, Luxurious Beds
 This
famous home and its elegant and interesting
rooms are yours to enjoy during your stay. The
Francis Hall House has been lovingly restored by New
York State Historical Painter, W.F. Hopkins and
wife, Caroline. An award-winning artist,
W.F.'s paintings are done in classic Hudson
River style and are in many prominent art
collections, museums and even Presidential
collections. Guests are always welcome to enjoy the
company of the artist in his classic Victorian
"Church Street" studio adjoining the main
parlor.
Art,
antiques, and books fill the rooms of this elegant
and historic landmark. Enjoy the library of art
books, memorabilia, photos and items, some of which
date to the original and famous owner of the home,
Francis Hall (Japan through American Eyes, The
Journal of Francis Hall, Kanagawa and Yokohama
edited and annotated by F.G. Notehelfer). Enjoy all
this marvelous home has to offer including the
wisteria-festooned verandah and English gardens off
of the artists' studio, where a former First Lady of
the United States was hosted by the Hopkins.

traveling, one should take it slow! She serves a
leisurely and delicious European-style breakfast,
with a selection of specialty dishes and pastries,
fruits, breads, cereals, cheeses, and beverages

teas. Breakfast is served daily beginning at 9 a.m.
