Adirondack Adventures at Your Doorstep
From the hotel’s central location in Saranac Lake, the best of the Adirondacks is right outside your door. Spend your days hiking lush mountain trails, biking through scenic routes, or paddling across sparkling lakes. Boating, fishing, and swimming remain favorite warm-weather pursuits, and the late-summer sunsets over the water are unforgettable.

Rest and Relaxation in Style
After a day of fresh air and adventure, retreat to Hotel Saranac’s guest rooms and suites. Each room is a balance of refined simplicity and Adirondack charm, outfitted with plush beds, dark wood furnishings, and crisp linens. Families or groups can spread out in the spacious Great Camp Suites, complete with parlor areas, fireplaces, and connecting bedrooms—perfect for longer stays or holiday gatherings. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, family, or group of friends, you’ll find accommodations designed to make your weekend comfortable and memorable.
Dining with Adirondack Flavor
No holiday weekend is complete without good food, and Campfire delivers with a seasonal, farm-to-table menu that celebrates local flavors. From craft brews to comfort cuisine, every meal reflects the region’s spirit. For a change of scene, step into the Great Hall Bar, modeled after a 14th-century Italian palazzo. This dramatic space invites you to sip cocktails beneath soaring ceilings, or enjoy an evening on the adjacent terrace by the fire, gazing at the mountains beyond. It’s the perfect setting for a celebratory toast to summer’s end.
Wellness and Pampering at Ampersand Spa
Labor Day is as much about relaxation as it is about exploration. At Ampersand Spa, guests can indulge in soothing massages, rejuvenating facials, or invigorating body scrubs. The spa’s serene environment makes it easy to unwind and reset before heading back into the busy fall season. Pair your treatment with downtime in the relaxation room or a nourishing meal from Campfire for a full day of self-care.

Whether it’s an intimate dinner on the Terrace, a family reunion, or even a pre-wedding celebration, Hotel Saranac provides elegant venues to host meaningful moments.
