"The inn is in a convenient location. The staff is helpful and friendly. Breakfast offerings were plentiful, including fresh waffles, but no eggs. Specious room comfortable beds. One negative is the lack of an elevator. This was our second stay at this hotel and we'd stay there again."

"Hotel Saranac is perfectly located for a weekend in the Adirondacks, in the heart of Saranac Lake for easy walking to restaurants, a short bike ride to the Rail Trail, and a reasonable drive to great hiking and outdoor opportunities. It’s a great historic hotel with lots of character and an amazing bar and lounge area, with great views of town and the mountains. Parking is plentiful and free. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. It is accessible and user friendly for guests that have mobility challenges."
