The Top 9 Hotels Near Eastwind Hotel - Lake Placid
-
The sister property transplants Eastwind's Scandinavian modernism to Lake Placid with the same visual restraint and deliberate coziness that defines the Catskills original. Blonde wood and clean lines create the kind of refuge that a Winter Olympics town demands.
-
A family-run resort in the Adirondacks since 1939, Mirror Lake Inn preserves the unhurried charm of mid-century leisure while slipping in modern comforts—salt-therapy rooms, an indoor pool, gas fireplaces. Its two restaurants, The View and The Cottage, bookend the day from refined to casual, anchoring what remains a destination for those who prefer mountains to crowds.
-
A sleek minimalist lodge where Scandinavian and Japanese design sensibilities replace the region's predictable log-cabin vocabulary, Laurel Lake Placid draws equally from the town's summer and winter identities. The spare interiors and outdoor-focused ethos suggest a place calibrated for those who come to the Adirondacks seeking refuge from rusticity itself.
-
Mirror Lake's north shore holds Whiteface Lodge, where alpine views and understated luxury frame a dining room devoted to seasonal Adirondack cooking. The kitchen treats local sourcing not as marketing but as the obvious path to restraint and clarity.
-
This Arts and Crafts lodge on Lake Placid's shore reopened after a 2005 fire with warm rustic interiors appointed in plaid and hide, recalling both Gilded Age comfort and Adirondack tradition. Two restaurants—a casual pub for chess and hot toddies, and the upscale Artisans—anchor a property that feels genuinely removed from the world.
-
The Adirondacks have reclaimed their hold on upstate travelers, and this waterfront lodge near Saranac Lake reads as a modern riff on the grand hotels that once defined the region. Sitting on Lake Flower's shores with full resort amenities, it trades nostalgia for straightforward comfort and access to the natural landscape that still anchors the area's appeal.
-
A former Rockefeller camp on Upper Saranac Lake, The Point preserves the aesthetic of 19th-century Adirondack luxury—twig furniture, stone fireplaces, antique-laden rooms—while attending to every whim of its guests. Black-tie dinners at a communal table and activities from snowshoeing to croquet complete the fantasy of glamorous retreat.
-
A restored Victorian mansion on Willard Street houses fourteen idiosyncratic bedrooms, each one a collision of period molding and contemporary art that feels less like a hotel room than a curator's private study. Lark Hotels' restraint—no lobby theater, no forced grandeur—makes the intimacy feel earned rather than designed.
-
A modernist hotel steps back from the lakeshore with clean lines and city views, its stone-tiled rooms a deliberate break from New England's quilted past. The wood-fired kitchen turns out honest pizzas and lobster rolls while the surrounding block—dense with gastropubs and serious restaurants—asks whether a hotel needs to be destination unto itself.
