FISHKILL – With its 11 hotels, the Town of Fishkill can be called the hotel capital of the Mid-Hudson Valley. Developers now have proposed construction of three more facilities, two in the busy Route 9 corridor and one on Route 52 at I-84.
Town Supervisor Robert LaColla said they demonstrate renewed interest in economic development.
“It is definitely a better ratable than an empty lot and we are glad to see things warming up again,” LaColla said. “Most of the development initiatives we have seen recently have to do with senior living, so it is nice to see a more commercial base coming in.”
One developer wants to build a four-story facility that would include both a Residence Inn with 125 rooms and a Spring Hill Suites with 75 rooms on a more than six-acre parcel in the Westage Business Center.
The other project, a Comfort Suites Hotel, would consist of 64 rooms, restaurant and retail building as a sister hotel to the existing Quality Inn on Route 52 at the Fishkill intersection of I-84 next to the 84 Diner.
