Property Description |
|
Escape in time to an era reminiscent of leisure and timeless elegance.
As you drive beneath the towering pines and pause before the majestic Georgian Revival structure that is the Gideon Putnam, you'll find a setting unforgettable and an experience treasured. A world-class hotel, and world renoun Roosevelt Mineral Baths & Spa awaits you and your guests with a warm welcome in a "postcard perfect" setting.
Whether your plans include a romantic getaway, a stress releaving Spa retreat, or business meeting, the Gideon Putnam is the perfect choice. While Saratoga has always bustled with activity such as performances rendered by the New York Ballet and Philadelphia Orchestra at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) or thoroughbred racing at the Saratoga Race Track, the Gideon itself is a year round destination, home to an array of packages, full service conference facilities and special events of our own. Let us surprise and amaze you with all that we have to offer.
Beyond the present day glamour, however, is a history worth repeating. Our hotel bears the name of the very founder of Saratoga Springs...Gideon Putnam. A visionary who settled here in 1795 near High Rock Spring, he saw the area's potential and purchased land near Congress Spring to build Putnam's Tavern and Boarding House. To accommodate demand for the area springs, he soon enlarged the guesthouse and went on to lay out his plans for a village...calling it Saratoga Springs. The name comes from the Iroquois word "Sarachtogoe" which means "place of swift water". In tribute to the profound and lasting effect of his early efforts, the state funded project of the 1930's to build the Spa State Park included the Gideon Putnam Hotel. Today, we prove as enduring as our namesake, celebrating our 6th decade of continuous operation. |
