The house keeping staff needs to be retrained, as does at least one person at the front desk. My wife and I arrived a short while after 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 7, 2025. We were assigned a King Deluxe room on the 2nd floor. The bathroom wall along the tub was replete with mold. We complained about the mold and we were given a King Deluxe room on the 2nd floor. That room had a similar problem, although less mold. When I complained about it and asked for a room that did not have a mold problem, I was told by a female (short brown-black hair) at the front desk that there were no more rooms available & that it was an old hotel so things like that should be expected. She also said that she has first seen the room and it wasn't so bad - that she is allergic to mold and would have had a reaction if it was a real problem. She said she had no reaction. I stated that regardless of whether the hotel is old or not, it should not have a mold issue, that it was a real problem, and that if she would get me some Clorox and a scrub brush, I would take care of the problem. I was told that a maintenance person would be sent to the room to take care of the issue. The maintenance person arrived about 1/2 hour later and remedied the problem with bleach, as I requested. The problem was bad enough that it took him 1/2 hour to scrub away the mold. I told the same female at the front desk about this. There was no apology and nothing offered for the inconvenience. Very diasappointing!

NO hot tub or pool to be seen at the hotel, website misleading, there is a public spa and pool at a different location with additional charges and in our case booked out our ONLY amenity was the bar.. disappointing. The room 508 layout was odd. I tripped on the step going into the room. Window didn’t open, it was taped shut with duct tape. Fitness center was hard to find. The only reason to stay here is if you are a guest at the spa and need a place to sleep not much to offer. Breakfast was fantastic but it wasn’t complementary. The bar staff was very friendly, but that’s really all I can say.

We were in a room that had a door to another room. We could hear clearly the conversation of the people in the next room including all their cuss words And when we went to the front desk they said there was nothing they could do.

Great location to attend the SPAC concerts. Location of the hotel is very striking. Things appeared a little run down. Elevator was not working properly. Conditioner bottle in the bathroom was empty. It just felt it needed a little more love and care.

Considering what a beautiful property and otherwise perfect experience at the Gideon Putnam Resort and Spa, a new chef would be a deal changer! The cod fish we ordered was still cold inside and the food overall was terrible. And despite the breathtaking property, the hall leading to Victoria pool and bathroom were unkept and dirty. We will be back though!!!!

If you like Old World Charm, this is the place. If you are looking for modern and trendy it’s not. The location and the grounds are wonderful! I try to visit every summer and always come home refreshed and relaxed.

The vibe is amazing-- so old school Saratoga luxury and refinement. We loved the bar, the "front porch" at night playing cards and listening to music, walking around the property. Beautiful getaway.

It’s really beautiful as you enter- high ceilings and cozy couches. The halls are wide and airy. The rooms were recently painted it seems, but ai did find someone’s contact on the corner of the bathroom sink. Also, the bathroom drain was very slow. You can see the age of the building with the old built in toothbrush holder and soap dish and those areas need attention- the caulking is starting to come up. The lack of bathroom fan means an open window- these have got to be pretty old- they are camped with layers of paint, but they do work! It’s a fun, atmospheric place to stay, but it’s by no means 5 stars
