About Brentwood Hotel
The Brentwood Hotel on Gridley Street is a small, characterful Saratoga Springs property that works best for travelers who want a walkable, low-friction stay without the premium of The Adelphi Hotel. Booking is easy outside of racing season. For a historic upstate New York weekend that doesn't require advance planning, it's a practical and straightforward choice.
Quick Take: Should You Book Brentwood Hotel?
If you're weighing the Brentwood against Saratoga Springs' most prominent option, The Adelphi Hotel, the Brentwood's address on Gridley Street positions it as a quieter, more residential alternative to the Adelphi's Broadway-facing bustle. Whether that trade-off works depends on what you're optimizing for: proximity to the action or relief from it.
Located at 15 Gridley St in the heart of Saratoga Springs, the Brentwood is a small historic property with a physical character that distinguishes it from the chain-adjacent options you'll find near the Saratoga Race Course. Historic Saratoga Springs builds — the kind with wide porches, period millwork, and rooms that have been shaped by successive renovations rather than a single design brief — tend to reward guests who notice that kind of thing. If you're coming in expecting the consistency of a branded hotel, reset that expectation before you arrive.
Booking is easy. This is not a property where you need to plan weeks in advance outside of peak racing season (late July through August), when Saratoga Springs fills up across every price tier. During the Saratoga racing meet, book as early as possible regardless of where you stay, the entire city tightens. Outside that window, the Brentwood should be accessible without significant lead time.
The Gridley Street location gives you walkable access to Broadway's restaurants, bars, and shops.

The Brentwood makes most sense for travelers who want a smaller, more characterful stay in Saratoga Springs without paying the premium of the Adelphi or settling for a generic highway-adjacent option. It is an easy booking with a location that works, which, for a weekend in upstate New York, is often enough.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Brentwood Hotel good for business travel?
Saratoga Springs is not a primary business hub, so the Brentwood is better suited to leisure stays than corporate travel. If you have meetings in the area, the Gridley Street location keeps you close to downtown, but check directly with the property on workspace and meeting amenities before booking around a work trip.
How is the pool and spa at Brentwood Hotel?
Pool and spa details for the Brentwood are not confirmed in available property data. If on-site wellness facilities are a deciding factor for your stay, check the venue's official channels before committing, or consider The Adelphi Hotel, which has documented amenity information publicly available.
How is the location of Brentwood Hotel?
The Brentwood sits on Gridley Street in Saratoga Springs, placing it close to the downtown core and a reasonable distance from Saratoga Race Course. For race season visits, that proximity matters — walkability to Broadway's restaurants and shops makes it a practical base without needing a car for most evenings.
Do loyalty programs work at Brentwood Hotel?
The Brentwood Hotel does not appear to be affiliated with a major hotel chain, which means standard loyalty programs like Marriott Bonvoy or Hilton Honors are unlikely to apply here. If points accumulation is part of how you choose hotels, factor that into the decision, particularly if you're comparing it against chain properties in the region.
How does Brentwood Hotel compare to nearby hotels?
The Adelphi Hotel is the most direct comparison in Saratoga Springs and comes with more publicly documented amenities, dining, and a known track record. The Brentwood's Gridley Street address is its clearest differentiator: quieter than Broadway-facing properties while still walkable to the main drag. Which performs better for your trip depends on whether you prioritize a lower-profile stay or confirmed on-site programming.
How is the dining at Brentwood Hotel?
On-site dining details for the Brentwood are not confirmed in available property data. Saratoga Springs has a solid independent restaurant scene along Broadway, so a hotel without a strong in-house food program is less of a penalty here than it would be in a more remote location. Confirm the current food offering with the property before booking if dining in is important to your stay.
Is Brentwood Hotel family-friendly?
Nothing in the current property data rules out families, and Saratoga Springs itself has broad appeal for multigenerational trips, particularly during racing season. That said, without confirmed details on room configurations, connecting rooms, or kids' amenities at the Brentwood specifically, families with young children should call ahead rather than assume.

How Brentwood Hotel Compares
Within Saratoga Springs, the most direct comparison is The Adelphi Hotel, which offers a more polished, amenity-forward experience on Broadway with a bar and dining program that draws locals as well as guests. If design investment and on-site food and beverage matter to you, the Adelphi is the stronger choice. The Brentwood competes on simplicity and, likely, price, it suits guests who want a place to sleep and base themselves in a walkable part of town without paying for amenities they won't use.
Against a wider set of U.S. boutique properties, the Brentwood sits well below the design ambition of places like Troutbeck in Amenia or SingleThread Farm Inn in Healdsburg, both of which wrap accommodation inside a stronger food and atmosphere program and carry higher price tags accordingly. If your trip centers on dining and immersive design, those properties justify the step up. The Chicago Athletic Association offers a useful comparison in a different market: a historic building transformed into a high-specification boutique hotel, showing what serious design investment looks like inside period architecture. The Brentwood is not playing in that category.
For travelers who routinely stay at properties like Aman New York or The Beverly Hills Hotel, the Brentwood is a pragmatic downshift, useful when the destination is the reason for the trip and the hotel is just logistics. For a Saratoga Springs racing weekend or a low-key upstate visit, that trade-off is entirely reasonable. Book the Adelphi if you want the full-service experience; book the Brentwood if you want simplicity and easy availability.
