"I appreciated also that the room offered reusable glasses for drinking water-I'm not a big fan of this cheap and wasteful trend in American hotels where plastic cups are provided to drink water instead of real glasses."

The smoke-free Renaissance Albany Hotel is a great place in a business area of Albany, which stands around a 25-minute walk from the Tivoli Lake Preserve. Situated a short way from the huge New York State Museum, the 4-star hotel boasts air-conditioned rooms along with a shared lounge and a hair salon available onsite.
Location
This perfect hotel has a prime location only 1.3 km from the Underground Railroad History Project of the Capital Region. Academy Park is nearly 5 minutes' walk away, while Albany Capital Center is right near the Renaissance.
Guests might as well visit Liberty Park, which is 0.6 km away. The accommodation stands 550 metres from the Roman Catholic church "Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception", popular with pilgrims and tourists alike.
State St & Eagle St bus stop is a few moments from the lovely Renaissance.
Rooms
The rooms include air conditioning, along with such modern comforts as free Wi-Fi and an iPod dock. The rooms also feature a private bathroom. Providing a roll-in shower and a separate toilet, some bathrooms have bath sheets.
Eat & Drink
There is a lounge bar onsite. Serving both food and drinks, Speakeasy 518 is situated within easy reach of the hotel.
Leisure & Business
Guests will appreciate a movie theatre organised at the Renaissance Albany. Keeping fit at this accommodation is convenient thanks to a fitness club that offers fitness classes. Finally, the hotel houses meeting rooms featuring conference facilities and a xerox.
“This historic building blends old-world charm with modern upgrades, positioning itself as a practical base in Albany. I noted its proximity to both the Albany Convention Center and the Times Union Center-that's valuable. Despite some reports, the on-site restaurant seems a solid option if you're seeking high-end American fare.”
