The Spotlight on Gideon Putnam Resort & Spa

Relaxed Luxury Steps from the Music at Saratoga


Nestled inside the scenic Saratoga Spa State Park, Gideon Putnam Resort & Spa offers a serene and stylish retreat just a short stroll from live music at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. With classic charm, plush rooms, and a full-service spa, this resort blends old-world elegance with modern comfort—perfect for concert-goers looking to unwind before or after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it


You're just a 6-minute walk from the gates of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, which means no need to stress about parking or rideshares after a show. The peaceful setting inside the park also makes for a quiet night’s sleep after the encore. Check-in starts at 4:00 PM—ideal for dropping your bags before heading out—and check-out is at 11:00 AM, giving you time to sleep in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for


- Groups of friends looking to relax in a natural setting before hitting the show
- Solo travelers catching a must-see artist
- Couples turning a concert into a weekend escape
- Fans needing quiet recovery time with spa options
- Budget-conscious music lovers who value location and comfort

Food and Drink Options


Putnam's Restaurant serves up locally sourced dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with seasonal patio dining to enjoy the summer breeze. While there's no all-night room service, you'll still find satisfying bites before and after your concert. Breakfast is available for those who want a relaxed start the next day.

Nightlife Options


Though there's no on-site club scene, you're within easy reach of downtown Saratoga Springs, where bars and lounges offer everything from craft cocktails to casual beers. After the concert, wind down with a drink under the stars or enjoy a quiet stroll through the park.

What People Say


Guests rave about the historic charm and the unbeatable location inside the park. Many applaud the easy walk to SPAC, as well as the peaceful, natural setting that feels like a true escape. The staff get high marks for friendliness, and the spa is often highlighted as a standout feature.

Areas for Improvement


Some visitors mention that parts of the hotel feel a bit dated, and a few note that the dining options can be limited late at night. However, most agree that the location and comfort more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line


For concert lovers heading to Saratoga Springs, Gideon Putnam Resort & Spa delivers location, comfort, and relaxation all in one beautiful park-side package.

Excellent overall and I am...

Liked: Location and the elegance of the hotel. Communication via text with concierge. Ultra responsive! Had a small issue in the room and they fixed it within 15 minutes. Impressive. Pillows and mattress are amazing here!!
Disliked: The bar stops serving at 9:45pm. Many people headed downtown instead. Lost opportunity!

This hotel is tired, the...

Liked: Location is great
Disliked: The elevator has been broken for weeks…we had to use the old freight one that you had to phone the front desk to have them in turn call the operator of the manual elevator. It only went to the 4th floor so we had to walk up the rest of the way. There was no apologies made whatsoever

Warning: Only service elevator is...

Liked: The hotel is clean and beautiful. It’s a real throw back in time. I would absolutely love to return.
Disliked: The rates should have been half since the elevators were both down. The two main elevators are under construction. The only other elevator was the manned service elevator that took extremely long to get up and down from the third floor. We mostly used the stairs. Poor management and poor customer treatment with having the elevators modernized over the busiest part of the year. It was very disappointing.

Liked: i like the fact that is is close to Spac so we could walk to the concert and that they have a pool and new restaurant within walking distance which was great the service was not so great there but the food was great
Disliked: the bathroom had hair in it and the old sink was cracked and it looked like a new tub was put in but it felt like it was going to cave in very soft in the middle of the tub also looks like some of the paint was coming off the towel rack and sink also it needs more towel hanging hooks no place to hang a wet towel to dry the beds were nice

Great location for Saratoa Spa...

Liked: Location was perfect for me. Very short walk to SPAC. It is a historic property (old), but we'll maintained. I had a few issues but the staff was very responsive and friendly. Would stay there again if I go to another concert at SPAC.
Disliked: Plumbing a little lacking I my room. Would like room service but restaurant will pack up food to go.
