Loved the history & the charm of the Gideon hotel. It felt like we went back in time. The grounds are amazing. & the Roosevelt spa & surrounding building are historic. We truly fell in love with all of it!!! Dinner at Putnam’s located inside hotel was amazing. Great food. Great staff. Ate there twice. We were located on the third floor in an executive suite & it was fully renovated. It had a sitting room & 1 bedroom. Not sure what the Gideon pumps into the main lobby. But the scent is truly amazing. All of the staff was so friendly & helpful. Shout out to Eric at the front desk since his name is the one I remember. But everyone went above & was always smiling. The place is just stunning & lovely. Perfect weekend getaway. But could stay longer. We truly can’t wait to visit again. Fall was definitely the perfect time. We also visited the spa & my massage was fantastic. I had Jodi. I would absolutely ask for her again.

The spa was amazing! Carrie gives the best pedicures. And the mineral bath was very relaxing. It was my first time. Trying the mineral bath and my second time getting a pedicure. The grounds are nice. The food is good. The restaurant has a great selection for dinner. They also have a really nice buffet for breakfast. I would highly recommend the Gideon Putnam to anyone visiting the area.

The hotel is a beautiful building, elegant and wonderfully restored and maintained. Our room was on the top floor and was spacious and modernized. The surrounding park is lovely for walks and it’s only a short trip to Saratoga town center which has cute shops and restaurants. The negatives: the old elevator is very noisy. Our room was at the other end of the hallway from the elevator and we could still hear it in our room, eveytime it was in use. A convo with other guests in the elevator confirmed that they heard it all the time too. Advice: get a room with a low number - 501, 502, etc. as far from the elevator as possible. One other small gripe: for a 4-star hotel, why the plastic cups in the room? Kinda tacky. Finally, I have food allergies and I can’t say I felt confident with the wait staff we had. They clearly had not been briefed as to the possible allergens in the food they were serving, which didn’t make me feel safe with what I was eating. I ended up avoiding a lot of things that may/may not have been ok.

This hotel is such an old gem in a truly central spot. But, unfortunately, when I say old I mean old. The rooms look like they e needed a good re do since the ‘90’s. Cracks in the walls, cracks in the ceiling, those old plastic slap on bathrooms so the shower floor feels squishy, paint on paint on paint on paint. It’s such a pity because it has such potential. The staff were attentive, kind and sweet. The grounds are beautiful. It just needs a good gutting, money put into this old dame, to bring it back around to today’s standards. Also, cut back on the towels in the rooms. We were only two guests with four complete sets of towels for four guests (what happens to these? Seems like a lot of extra washing).
