Preserving History, Embracing Sustainability
At voco James Newbury Hudson Valley, we’ve transformed a historic 19th-century ironworks and shipping port into a vibrant hotel through adaptive reuse. This preserves Coxsackie’s unique character while reducing environmental impact by minimizing new construction and conserving resources, reflecting our commitment to voco’s Steps to Sustainability and a responsible future.
Our Commitment to voco’s Steps to Sustainability

Our aerated shower heads reduce water use without sacrificing comfort, all designed to minimize waste and conserve resources during your stay.
Spaces Designed for Comfort, Conservation, and Character
Our guestrooms combine historic charm with modern eco-conscious features. Exposed brick walls and large windows invite natural light, reducing energy use. Bedding made from 100% recycled fillings and water-saving aerated shower heads enhance comfort while supporting sustainability. Local art adds unique character, connecting you to the Hudson Valley community and our sustainability values.
Spirit Water: Mindful Hydration for Every Stay
Your stay includes two complimentary Spirit Water bottles—featuring clean mountain spring water in reusable aluminum packaging that feels as good as it is sustainable. Refill your bottles anytime at our lobby Quench station or purchase extras to take home as a reminder of your visit. With Spirit Water, thoughtful design meets mindful living, turning a daily habit into a small but meaningful act of care for the planet.
We proudly partner with See & Bee, a local bakery dedicated to crafting bread the traditional way, with time, care, and high quality wheat. Their commitment to supporting local producers aligns with our own values. You’ll find their breads featured across both our Blue Heron Breakfast menu and Patrick Henry’s Waterfront Tavern.
Just 10 minutes from the hotel, Jem Farm provides the delicious local honey featured in dishes across the property, from hot honey at Patrick Henry’s Waterfront Tavern to breakfast favorites at Blue Heron. Supporting local farms means fresher ingredients and a lighter environmental footprint.
We source fresh, local produce from Veritas Farm to bring vibrant, seasonal flavors to your plate. Whether it's crisp salad greens at Patrick Henry’s Waterfront Tavern or veggies topping your breakfast or burger, their commitment to local agriculture helps us serve food that’s both flavorful and sustainably grown.
Sourced just five miles from the hotel, Jourdin’s Maple Syrup adds an authentically local touch to Blue Heron breakfast favorites. Enjoy it drizzled over pancakes or pick up a bottle at the front desk to take home. Supporting small maple producers helps preserve local traditions and sustainable farming practices.
