The hustle and bustle of city life is bound to eventually catch up with New Yorkers. A popular option for overworked couples is to take a short trip upstate for a romantic weekend at one of the area's numerous hotels. This helps couples get away from work, the house and the kids to unwind, relax and reconnect.
