The Hotel Saratoga: A Boutique Hotel With Locally Driven Charm
You love coming to Saratoga for the track, SPAC, downtown dining, and everything in between. What if you could stay in a boutique hotel in Saratoga Springs that seamlessly captures all of the rich culture and classic charm that the area is known for? If you're looking for lodging that's more than a cookie-cutter hotel stay, see why The Hotel Saratoga, with its ideal location close to the track and close to SPAC, stands out from the rest.

A Unique Take on Saratoga Hospitality
Unlike similar properties, The Hotel Saratoga breaks free from the horses brand. Yes, the racetrack is close. And yes, SPAC is right around the corner.
But this hotel was thoughtfully designed to reflect the full spectrum of Saratoga’s identity, from the mineral springs to the potato chips to the architectural heritage - as well as the horses.

You’ll see the first of many nods towards Saratoga the moment you walk into the lobby, where a custom art piece made from Saratoga Blue Water bottles serves as a backdrop behind the front desk.
Around the hotel, you’ll find historic photos and maps of downtown streets, an animated representation of Spit and Spat from Congress Park, and thoughtful design elements like showers with custom-etched “Saratoga” trench drains.

Even the fitness center joins the storytelling. A detailed photo of Saratoga’s potato chip history is displayed beside a QR code linking to a video about how the chip was invented here.
The masterminds behind this hotel didn't just slap a photo of a sunset over a bed and call it decor. Every single piece of art is either custom made or carefully hand selected to exhibit all the best elements the region is known for, so you never forget where you are, and guests feel like they're being brought into the Saratoga fold.

This is the kind of place where you leave not just rested, but connected. Say goodbye to impersonal hotel stays where you feel like you're just one of the heads filling beds.
