Have You Stayed at Spillian Yet?
Upstater Staff | December 4, 2014An inn set within a shingle-style Victorian mansion in the Catskill Mountains featuring guest rooms with art and literature-inspired names? Count us in. Spillian in Fleischmanns, Delaware County (GMAP) clearly has a number on this one, so naturally, we’re passing it along to you. Formerly the estate of Charles Louis Fleischmann of the Fleischmanns Yeast Products fame, Spillian once consisted of 5 houses, 2 of which still remain. Owners Leigh Melander and Mark Somerfield have careers that have spanned the fields of the arts, music, dance, theater tech, and building/renovating, primarily in the west coast. In fact, Somerfield was responsible for Spillian’s extensive renovations, which took him a year to complete. Nowadays, Melander and Somerfield, who are married, spend most of their time at Spillian and working with community organizations.
The hotel consists of 8 themed guest rooms, including the Jules Verne room, the Secret Garden room, the Scheherazade room, and the Klimt room with decor inspired by, you guessed, the artwork of Klimt. Rooms run $175/night but they do run winter midweek specials.
Or, rent the entire hotel for your special event, business retreat, or wedding for $1750/night. The grounds include 32 woodsy acres with a pond, gazebo, and fire pit. For info on rates, availability, and special event details, get thee hence to the Spillian website.
