What guests say
9 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 217 guest reviews
Wm. Farmer and Sons earns consistently strong sentiment for its historic character, excellent central location in Hudson, and well-maintained, comfortable rooms.

Guests overwhelmingly find it a charming, characterful stay, though the price point and lack of fitness facilities are noted.
