I cannot say enough great things about Hotel Saranac, they are amazing! Just as some insight with my experience with the Hotel my wife and I had our wedding ceremony & reception both at the hotel on February 18th 2023. From the first visit we w...
anted Hotel Saranac to be our wedding venue and it was a wonderful experience from the start. Myra is truly amazing, and we cannot say enough how great it was working with her! Communication was always stellar and the willingness to work with us with all our unique ideas to incorporate into the reception was always welcomed and if not immediate having answers to our questions Myra would get a confirmation to our questions in hardly anytime at all! On the day of the wedding, we cannot think of anything that could have gone any better with the day of execution from Myra and her staff! The friendly service from all the staff was such a pleasurable experience and so many of our guests have given endless compliments about how wonderful the staff was at our wedding. Food and drinks were spot on from our tasting experience which was a huge relief for us both and the hotel was so accommodating to work with us with our custom meal and hors d’oeuvres selections. Our day was perfect, and we owe so much of it to Myra and all the Hotel Saranac team! If you are looking for a truly amazing wedding experience from a venue then look no further, Hotel Saranac is the place! Hot Sara will always have a special place in our hearts for delivering unforgettable wedding memories!

We fell in love with Hotel Saranac when we visited in 2018 and five years later, we had an amazing wedding here! From the beginning, Myra was so helpful, kind, and professional - she made the planning process so easy and enjoyable, I truly wasn...
't even stressed about anything. Hotel Saranac provides just about everything you need and the staff are all incredibly helpful and professional, from the reception attendants to the bartenders and servers. Myra and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to make sure our guests were happy and taken care of, and that everything looked/functioned the way we wanted. We were also pleasantly surprised with the pricing and everything that was included, allowing us to have a beautiful wedding in a special venue without going over our budget. I can't think of anything we would have wanted to be done differently and we're so grateful for the team at Hotel Saranac for helping us have the most amazing wedding we could have imagined!

Any questions?
We had a wonderful wedding experience at Hotel Saranac! All of the staff with whom we worked (especially Myra and Blake) were supportive and accommodating as we (unexpectedly) planned a winter wedding in 2.5 months for over 150 guests in what e...
nded up being a Nor'Easter.
The food and service were outstanding for both our rehearsal dinner buffet and wedding reception with plated meals. Any details that required confirmation or modification were handled extremely well. The wait staff and bartenders were professional and caring from start to finish.
The space was elegant and magical- especially when decorated for Christmas. All of our reception decor was laid out beautifully (all we needed to do was drop it off!). They even cleared the terrace for snowy pictures! Thank you, Hotel Saranac for creating the perfect wedding weekend.

When we booked Hotel Saranac, there was a different sales coordinator in charge. We were frantic that we made the wrong decision because of poor case management. However, when Myra took over last year, everything changed! Myra and Blake were in...
credible. Always willing to answer calls and emails about the most miniscule things. Our wedding day was nothing short of amazing. The venue, the food, the staff- all amazing. All our guests raved about our wedding and the venue. I highly recommend Hotel Saranac if you're looking for a place to get married in the High Peaks region. Five stars for value!!!

We couldn't have picked a better place for our wedding reception. Hotel Saranac went above and beyond for myself and the groom on our special day! They were very accommodating upon arrival for the weekend, right until we left for the honeymoon!...
The night of our wedding we found a sweet gift from the hotel. It is a beautiful blanket that we will cherish forever as we look back on our day. Thank you so much to Hotel Saranac, and a special shout out to Myra!

Myra and the Hotel Saranac were a pleasure to work with. Emails and phone calls were always answered in a timely manner (and I had a lot of questions!) and the professionalism was unmatched. Myra was very organized and transparent on how the pl...
anning process would work and what she needed from us to make the wedding a success. Our guests raved about the food and the venue was the perfect balance of outdoor space, relaxing lounge, and a ballroom dance party. Not to mention it is the perfect location in downtown Saranac Lake with walking distance to several bars for an organized or impromptu after party. All employees provided outstanding service both at the reception and at the farewell breakfast we did the next day (highly recommend- it was a hit!). Myra helped us plan every detail and we loved all the extras the hotel provided like table numbers, center pieces, and bar signage. One less thing to worry about! My now husband and I also really loved the menu tasting the Hotel Saranac offered, as we found it to be a rare thing to come by at wedding venues in the Lake Placid/Saranac Lake area, and we loved that we had exclusive use of the space for 8+ hours as most venues only offer 5 hours without an upcharge. The rooms and suites were also amazing, with our suite in particular being a great and spacious spot for the groom and groomsmen to get ready, eat breakfast (prepared and delivered to the door by the hotel), and hang out before the wedding. We cannot say enough about how happy we were with our wedding weekend. Thank you Hotel Saranac!

es that made the weekend that much more special. We had the pleasure of working closely with Myra. She is incredible to work with and helped make the planning process less stressful. Our wedding was beyond out expectations and a large part of that was due to Myra and the Hotel Saranac team. I could go on and on about how amazing the hotel is. All of our guest loved the space and kept commenting about the food and how amazing everyone was. We would 100% have an event here again!

Hello Jerome,
Thank you for this amazing review! Everyone had an incredible time thanks to your killer music. We can't wait to have you back this year! You kept the party going all night.
Sincerely,
Myra & the Hotel Saranac Team
Hotel Saranac is absolutely beautiful with unique character. We particularly liked that you have use of the entire space all night, so folks who do not want to be right by the DJ can hang in the gorgeous great hall or on the terrace. Their wedd...
ing packages include a lot compared to other venues we explored and we never felt "nickled and dimed."
Our day-of coordination was wonderful and all the staff were friendly and responsive. The bartenders were amazing and contributed to our guests having a great time. I am not giving the venue 5 stars, however, because throughout the planning process it was extremely difficult to get in touch via email and phone. Our emails would go unanswered for weeks at a time, which was stressful as the wedding date approached and we needed answers to various questions. Overall, I would still recommend this venue and cannot stress how awesome our wedding day was, but the planning process nearly gave me an ulcer.
I cannot think of a single thing I would have changed for my wedding this past September! The venue was beautiful and the coordinating team was top notch! We had our rehearsal dinner and ceremony on the terrace and the reception in the ballroom...
. The bridal party got ready downstairs in the ember room and the groomsmen got ready in a suite in the adjoining building. I have received so many compliments from my guests! Everyone had a blast in a beautiful venue in the perfect Adirondack town. We had ~100 guests but I would highly recommended to anyone regardless of size!
Hotel Saranac hosted a small "reception" dinner for our party of 15 following our elopement ceremony nearby. We were able to rent the Ember Room and the staff helped us choose a menu for a plated dinner ahead of time. Everything was delicious a...
nd gorgeous, and the staff took excellent care of our group. I was so happy to find somewhere that would not only accommodate our small group, but give us a wonderful experience that fit our budget.
