The initial phases of Saratoga Springs’ newest resort have been completed and it has started to accommodate guests.
Brookmere, the reimagining of the former Longfellows Hotel and Restaurant, has been under construction since 2023 and the final phase will be finished early next month.
According to Amber Mathias, director of project development for the Bonacio organization, the Regent Restaurant & Bar is open as well as 28 guest rooms in the renovated annex building. Of those guest rooms, four are spa-specific. The building also houses the Arbor Spa.
The final phase is a three-story new building that is connected to the old barn by the new ballroom and courtyard. The first floor is currently open to the public. Next month the guest rooms on the second and third floors will be available to the public.
General Manager Julian Miller said that to introduce the resort to the community some rooms are being offered for $179 a night for the next several months.
