Ciel on the Hudson

My review is solely based on a 1x tour of the premises. This was by far the most beautiful of assisted living locations that we looked at for my mother-in-law. If she was 5 to 10 years younger we would have absolutely considered placing her here. For her needs it was a little big but I was so impressed with the staff including Angela who gave us the tour. The place was a hotel prior and you can tell by the feel it was an upscale hotel. I saw activities with people involved, the dining room was beautiful, the activities were plentiful and the location was stunning. I recommend looking at this place if you're in need of an active community for a loved one although like any assisted living location you can do as much or as little as you want. I thought the grounds were beautiful to sit outside and the views from the stunning bedrooms especially those looking at the Hudson River where by far the nicest rooms we had seen. Based on what we saw, I would add this to a list when looking for a place for Mom or Dad. Again we didn't dive into everything including the nursing amenities (3rd party), etc. The clients that I saw there all seem to be very happy and very pleasant. A shout out to A Place for Mom (Joe Welsh) for recommending that I go and see Ciel on the Hudson.

We moved our Aunt here about 6 weeks ago after two other facilities . We Finally hit the Jackpot ! I can’t say enough about Ciel and their staff . The place is a gem . Every employee is outstanding and they are so attentive and responsive and my aunt is in the memory care unit on the 2 nd floor and LaToya is the director and has been nothing short of Fantastic . I wish we found this home sooner . My aunt is happy and well cared for and safe . What a fabulous experience! Keep up the great work and Thanks for all you do . Many Blessings

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ciel on the Hudson and the exceptional care they provide. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated a genuine commitment to understanding my loved one as an individual — not just their needs, but their preferences, routines, and what truly brings them joy. That personalized approach to care gave our family incredible peace of mind. The food is truly outstanding — thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and tailored to accommodate different dietary needs without sacrificing flavor or creativity. Meals feel like a special experience rather than just part of the daily routine, and it is clear that quality and nutrition are a priority. What truly sets Ciel apart is their life enrichment programming. The variety of activities is impressive, engaging residents socially, mentally, and physically in ways that promote dignity, independence, and happiness. It is evident that the staff is passionate about creating meaningful experiences that help residents continue to grow, connect, and enjoy life. The compassion, professionalism, and warmth shown by the entire team make this community truly special. Knowing my loved one is supported, valued, and thriving in such a positive environment means everything to our family. I highly recommend Ciel on the Hudson to anyone looking for exceptional senior living with heart.

My 97 year old mom has been a resident here for over 3 years. Some of her caregivers like Glennis and Myrna have been lifesavers, showing an abundance of love and care. My mom had been extremely worried and not sleeping because her retirement plan had threatened to cancel her pension because she was having difficulty proving she was alive. When Zuie Glasgow, the site social worker, saw her by the dining room, she recognized my mom's distress and immediately set out to put in place a process that took care of her problem. Her intuitive empathy made a huge difference.
