Hotel Saranac, Curio Collection by Hilton

our vintage inspired wedding, and if you’re at all considering having a winter wedding, let me tell you how romantic it was getting married in front of the fireplace with the snow gently falling outside. Everything about that day was pure magic. I am so grateful to Blake Riggs and Katie Holvik and the entire team at the Hotel Saranac for helping turn our dreams into a reality. Blake, in particular, was instrumental in executing my vision, offered crucial advice, accommodated last minute changes, and was generally extremely helpful throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, I could relax knowing everything was in good hands. In addition to everything going off without a hitch, the food was delicious, the cocktails were flowing, and our guests had a wonderful time celebrating in a unique, historic hotel in the heart of the Adirondacks. We can’t wait to come back to visit.

hosting an elegant but intimate wedding. I highly recommend the autumn season, as the colour of the leaves made everything feel and look extra special. All the hotel staff were very professional and Blake worked well with our other vendors to execute our plan. Also, the food was spectacular, all our guests were raving about it. I can't recommend this venue enough if you are looking for an Adirondack wedding.

the sales manager, deserves special recognition for his excellent communication and attention to detail. He answered every question promptly and worked with us to make sure every request was handled perfectly. Our guests raved about the beautiful venue and exceptional service. We couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate!

renovations. There was more than enough space for ~100 guests between the ballroom, great hall + bar, hotel rooms, and outdoor terrace looking out at the Adirondack surroundings and town of Saranac. Guests enjoyed making a weekend out of their stay to enjoy the area and we had a blast going out to the local bars after the reception. The venue staff were extremely professional, and we were treated like royalty by everyone there. Our sales manager, Blake Riggs, was very helpful from start to finish. He worked with us to customize every detail from food to floor plan, and he was there on the day to make sure everything went as planned. We couldn’t have asked for a better team. We highly recommend this wedding venue!

was brilliant, prompt, and helpful. The honeymoon suite was perfect.

professional and so helpful to make our vision come true. Especially in the Adirondacks, it's challenging to find venues that can host the ceremony, the reception, and allow people to stay right on site! It was such a pleasure to host our family and friends at Hotel Saranac! We couldn't imagine a more perfect day!

& highly recommend this venue to everyone currently planning a wedding!

The whole process was easy, stress-free and our day turned out even better than we could have ever dreamed. Our families have only had amazing things to say about their experience as guests. My husband and I would 110% recommend getting married at the Hotel Saranac; If we could go back and do it all again, we wouldn’t change a single thing. We can’t thank Myra, the concierge team, the restaurant staff, the servers and bartenders, and every single staff member or vendor we worked with enough!

We had our rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and brunch at Hotel Saranac and the food, drinks, and decor were stellar for each event. Every detail we mentioned was executed better than we could have dreamed. They respond immediately and professionally with any question any and all questions we had while planning the event and on day of!

Myra and team at the hotel were great to work with - quick to respond to questions, happy to accommodate small requests, and flawlessly executing every detail. Our guests were complimentary of the beautiful space, great food, kind staff and were huge fans of the late night snack option (we went with the french fry bar)!

ies. From the very moment we stepped foot on the premises, the staff's warmth and attentiveness were truly remarkable. Throughout our entire stay, their hospitality remained unwavering, making us feel incredibly welcome. This exceptional level of service extended seamlessly to every aspect of our visit, from the outstanding dining experiences at the hotel's restaurants to the delightful shopping opportunities within. A standout figure in our remarkable journey was Myra, the dedicated wedding coordinator who orchestrated our daughter's special day with impeccable precision. Myra's meticulous attention to detail ensured that no aspect was overlooked, resulting in a wedding that was nothing short of perfection. Her team's tireless efforts were evident in every element, creating an ambiance of elegance and joy that will forever be cherished. We must commend Adam for his instrumental role in accommodating some last-minute changes that arose. His willingness to collaborate and rearrange the room layout demonstrated a level of professionalism and dedication that truly set the Saranac Hotel apart. Termit, our server, was an absolute delight. Her exceptional service and radiant personality added an extra layer of enjoyment to our dining experiences, making each meal an exquisite culinary journey. Nicole, the bartender, left an indelible impression with her expertly crafted specialty drinks, including the mouthwatering Old Fashioned. Her skill and creativity transformed each sip into a delightful adventure, leaving us eagerly anticipating our next cocktail. We had the privilege of meeting Chef Shane, who took the time to personally greet us and provide a final overview of the culinary offerings. The talents of chefs John and Blake were evident in every dish, as they consistently delivered flavors that tantalized our taste buds and exceeded our expectations. In summary, whether you're seeking to host an event of any kind or simply yearning for a rejuvenating weekend getaway, we wholeheartedly recommend the Saranac Hotel with the highest accolades. Our experience was undoubtedly worthy of a 10-star review, a testament to the exceptional service, ambiance, and memories that this remarkable establishment provides.

that we and our guests had the best weekend possible. The weekend itself was amazing but so was the amount of time and energy that Myra and her team put into coordinating everything to truly make it the wedding of our dreams. Myra is great at what she does! Planning a wedding can be stressful and there are a lot of decisions to be made but Myra answered my all questions (almost instantly), provided wonderful suggestions, was flexible, organized and detailed, and always made time to meet with me. It was wonderful to feel supported (start to finish) by a team of experts! We are so happy that we made the decision to book our wedding at the Hotel Saranac and highly recommend doing the same!

he 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!

th at the hotel on February 18th 2023. From the first visit we wanted 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!

is readily available to make your dreams come true! Highly recommend to anyone and everyone!!

ned a winter wedding in 2.5 months for over 150 guests in what ended 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.

took over last year, everything changed! Myra and Blake were incredible. 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!!!

planning process and the day of to help us and ensure the day went smoothly. The venue was beautiful on a fall day and the rooftop made for great photos! 100% would have chosen this venue again if we had to do it over again!

If you want a cool wedding in a beautiful location like the Adirondacks, but don’t want a rustic camp wedding - come here! Your friends and family can hike in the AM and have martinis in a beautiful Art Deco space in the evening. 15/10 get married here.

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!

e many other nearby places)! The staff was incredibly helpful in the planning process and really wonderful to work with on the day of. The drinks are excellent, the decor is great, and our guests loved the venue overall. 10/10 would get married there again.

l throughout the wedding planning process! Everything went smoothly the day of and we are so grateful to everyone at Hotel Saranac!

unmatched. Myra was very organized and transparent on how the planning 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!

out a hitch.

tic from start to finish. She was professional, so attentive to detail, responsive to emails, and calm under pressure. The food was delicious far more than typical wedding fare (thank you Chef Mike and his staff) the dining staff on point (thanks Taylor and Sadie and all) the bartenders so knowledgeable serving up the best cocktails! These people really care about their guests.Oh and the raw bar? out of this world! Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be !

g ostentatious. The staff was so attentive and caring, especially our venue coordinator Myra. She was incredibly helpful and considerate, and we felt like we were in good hands the entire time. Highly recommend!

y went above and beyond to make sure we had the wedding we envisioned and even threw in some additional touches that delighted us the day of. We highly recommend Hotel Saranac for your future event.

they were going above and beyond. There were so many small touches 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!

cial was knowing all the work that she and her team put into the day but made the flow for all guests and vendors move so effortlessly and everyone had a good time, even the wait staff! I would recommend Myra and her team for any wedding party or special event group. I certainly hope to work with them soon again. Thank you Myra! DJ Rome 802

an hang in the gorgeous great hall or on the terrace. Their wedding 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.

er 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!

nu for a plated dinner ahead of time. Everything was delicious and 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.
