The company takes cues from the culture and heritage of the property\u2019s surroundings and incorporates them into cosmopolitan and contemporary spaces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe were all captivated by the property\u2019s location and relationship to the historic race course,\u201d said Leigh Salem, one of the owners of Brentwood Hotel. \u201cDuring track season, you wake up to horses walking down Gridley Street to the training grounds.\u00a0There is something incredibly romantic to be surrounded by the stables and the long traditions of the sport.\u00a0In the off season, we find the location equally charming. A place of respite away from Broadway where you can sit outside and enjoy some quiet.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe fell in love with the idea of creating a small, intimate, and carefully appointed property,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><!--more-->The owners worked with Nolan Engineering PLL in Burnt Hills for the design. The general contractor was Select Choice Contracting from Mechanicville. Landscaping was done by New Dimensions in Saratoga Springs. The beds were custom-designed and crafted by Dave Cummings of Bolton Landing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"> Room rates range from $100 mid-week to the $300s during track season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The Brentwood owners are excited about the upcoming track season. The property received positive attention from the <i>New York Times Style Magazine<\/i> and the owners are confident they will have no trouble filling vacancies during the summer season and beyond. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">They are also promoting the hotel during the months the track is closed as a serene alternative to the busier downtown Saratoga scene, with all the amenities of a high-end hotel. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The Brentwood can be reached at 450-7861.
