5 out of 5Relaxing B&B meets Poconos?
May 06, 2013
Relaxing B&B meets Poconos? Sounds like a contradiction in terms. When was the last time you heard of a B&B with anything other than just relax, hang around, maybe a spa tub, and a great breakfast. Just what we were looking forward to. We are not "Poconos" type people. Quiet and relaxation, maybe something nearby to do or see, if we feel like it. Bob and Karen have cut a little piece of Paradise into Fort Montgomery. A beautiful home overlooking the Hudson, with hiking trails, pool, gym and sauna, games such as ping pong and air hockey, a small movie theater....all at your doorstep...their doorstep. Wine and cheese one evening, 50's style hot dogs and milk shakes another; great breakfasts, enjoyable company with the hosts and other guests. We had a WONDERFUL weekend and will defintely be back.
5 out of 5Birthday getaway
April 07, 2013
I took my husband to la Bell for his birthday and it was beyond anything we could have dreamt or imagined. Bob was so generous and kind, and the grounds and rooms were beautiful. The time, creativity, and energy Bob and his wife put into la Bell shows. It was a peaceful, fun visit and snow fell making it even more picturesque. Just what we needed since we live and work in NYC. Bob graciously offered us a lift to and from the train station since we had no car. I highly recommend this place and look forward to future visits when it is warm enough to use the outdoor pool. Hope to see you all there! Dont miss out on this incredible place!
5 out of 5Family Reunion
February 21, 2013
We were delighted to hold our family reunion at la bel Worstell overlooking the majestic Hudson River. There were plenty of activities for the whole family, young and old. We especially enjoyed hiking the nature trails. The party room was great for our checkers tournament and lots of other fun activities. The Bryants arranged for extra parking for us and made special sleeping arrangements so we could all enjoy our weekend together. They helped arrange trips to local sites including West Point and other events in the city and were extremely accommodating. The whole family thanks you for a wonderful time.

WELCOME TO THE SCENIC HUDSON RIVER VALLEY!
5 out of 5Ultimate Escape from the City
November 29, 2012
My boyfriend and I were burning out in the city and needed some last minute R&R that was easily accessible by Metro North. From the very first phone call to innkeeper Bob Bryant to the last goodbye (because there were many), our experience was above and beyond what I could have dreamed of. Bob's hospitality made us feel like we were at a home away from home. What made this trip even possible was that Bob arranged transportation to/from the train station as we could not find a car. Not having a car, we also could not drive off the property to get dinner so he provided that meal too (in the form of a 50's themed "Nibbles & Bits" social gathering)! In between, we enjoyed the game room, the built-in movie theatre, a walk through the pathways on the property & a yummy breakfast cooked by Bob himself! Next time we'll take advantage of the sauna! Our privacy was respected and I received a polite & friendly phone call each time Bob needed to let us know when something was going on in the common area instead of a knock at the door. Each turn we took in and around the property provided another awe-inspiring jaw-drop, from the themed rooms from around the world to the tea house on the property to the breathtaking views of the Hudson. We felt spoiled and did not have to worry for nothing. We will DEFINITELY be returning! This time, hopefully the Africa Room!
5 out of 5The best weekend ever...........
November 19, 2012
What a great weekend. The Best B&B I have ever stayed. The rooms are great. The accommodations are first class. Bob and Karen, I want to thank you for sharing your beautiful home with my father and me. A weekend we will never forget. We will be back.
5 out of 5Superb Hudson River B&B
November 11, 2012
Spectacular location overlooking the Hudson River! The views are stunning in this lovely comfortable impeccable new home. Hospitality offered was exquisite and immediately welcomed us into a warm friendship at la bel Worstell that we look forward to continuing during future visits. Tailoring of the breakfast menu to suit our schedule each morning was extraordinary. Exploration of outdoor acreage featuring hiking trails and plenty of natural boulders for perching to contemplate sensational scenery completed our inaugural lodging. Truly a gem!
