Description

One-night weekday stay for four in two chateau rooms at the Oheka Castle Hotel and Estate in Huntington, New York, including continental breakfast for four.


Almost a century ago, financier and philanthropist Otto Hermann Kahn built Oheka Castle in the middle of a 443 acre plot on the highest point on Long Island in Cold Spring Harbor, for an estimated cost of $11 million dollars ($110 million dollars in today's currency). At the time of its construction, Oheka Castle was, and still is today, the second-largest private residence ever built in America. The French-style chateau is located on the Gold Coast of Long Island between New York City and The Hamptons. Local attractions include Bethpage Black Golf Course North Fork Wine Country, Gold Coast Mansions, beaches, and art museums.


Today, Oheka is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is admired as a premier venue to host society weddings, gala celebrations, and corporate retreats. Oheka has been the backdrop to many famous music, television, film and photo productions since the making of the classic film, "Citizen Kane." Mansion Tours of the estate and gardens offer guests the unique opportunity to learn about Oheka's rich history and experience the grandeur of this magnificent estate.
