A Cultural and Social Hub in Saranac Lake
Since opening at the height of the Roaring Twenties, Hotel Saranac has remained an iconic gathering place in the Village of Saranac Lake. The hotel's original details, including the hand-carved beams and chandeliers of the Great Hall, designed after a 14th-century Italian castle, remain beautifully preserved alongside modern comfort throughout. Guests can still gather by the fireplace in the historic Great Hall, just as visitors have for nearly a century.
Hotel Saranac is your base camp for Adirondack adventure. Located steps from the Adirondack Rail Trail and within easy reach of High Peaks access points, we put paddling, hiking, skiing, snowmobiling, and four-season outdoor recreation right outside our door. Snowmobilers can ride in and park directly on our property, no trailer required. Our Explorer Concierges are on hand at the front desk to help guests find the region's best trails, restaurants, and local experiences, hidden gems included.
