udson, NewYork— where small-town charm meets big-city style—continues to attract creatives looking for an upstate escape. And now, among the antique shops, galleries, boutiques and restaurants that spill onto Warren Street in the heart of downtown, sits The Maker Hotel. Lev Glazman and Alina Roytberg, co-founders of the Fresh beauty brand, partnered with hospitality expert Damien Janowicz to create an experience that marries historical design with modern amenities.

The team was mindful of integrating the elements that tell the story of the building’s original 1800s architecture, preserving original fireplaces, stained glass windows, mosaic tiles and hand-painted ceilings. Throughout the rooms and common spaces, visitors will find vintage décor and one-of-a-kind pieces, art from Glazman’s personal collection, Moroccan rugs and reproduced furniture from local Hudson Valley master craftsmen. With many of the custom creations also available for purchase (like the stunning Louis XV-style beds), guests can recreate their own Maker moments at home.
