I worked in this hotel as a teen in the 90’s. I used that switch board. Some of the hand writing is probably mine. The room with the chairs on the stage was the ballroom that was used as a sin agog.
I worked there in the 90s too.
I went to a fine Orthodox wedding there some years ago and even had a room there for a week. I remeber the hotel when in full operation .. What a great memory.....I even rember the swithboard...dancing. and feasting at the nonstop breakfast for$7.00 including smoked salmon and fresh baked bagels and breads...The baker was a hoot..always under the influence....
I must say that this video is the most beautifull video that i have seen of urban exploring. Really peacefull, with respect for the abadoned hotel. Thanx for sharing..

Jeez…
It looks very warm and inviting. Very cozy. It almost feels as though the place is waiting for the visitors to come back.
Music fits the pictures perfectly. Love it, thanks for sharing!
I tried to buy it in 2000, it was owned buy some ass in NYC. He was letting it rot. The hotel could be incredible again.
He wouldn’t sell?
Wow, I'm drooling over all those vintage televisions in there! It's a shame this place closed down, and that it got vandalized after this video.
It looks more cheerful than my apartment.
Again, your photography captures emotion. Beautifully done!
I read about this hotel last night. Had to see videos of it here. I sure loved that old switchboard. What history.
Beautiful video and beautiful place!!
In this hotel there are lots of nice vintage items!!
I miss Sharon Springs, It was such a wonderous place to grow up, My foster parents moved there from Ohio, John and Dorothy Greer. being in the bicentienial parade. I went to Trinity Ep Church we lived in the Rectory. The season change, the leaves. watching for the wild dafodils, and rubarb. I learned to swim by the old rec center, Andrea when she came in the summer, how sad we were that my family was moving away, and Jamie, and Tara, still feels like home, and Im homesick.
Great job with filming and editing! I had to hit the subscribe button after seeing this. ❤❤❤
The quality of your photography is admirable, the colours so vivid.
Enjoyed this wander around a once lovely old hotel.
Love it!!! Very well captured.
I thank you for posting this video. Much of the architecture actually ATTRACTED me! Personally, I would have liked for this place to be restored and put back into business, if the building is structurally sound and such. As for ADA, a handful of rooms on the 1st or 2nd floor could be redone to make them handicapped accessible. I like this feeling of going back in time!
The music was also decent.
May God's peace be with ya--in the name of JESUS!

The colors are beautiful
I can't believe how good of a shape it is in for its age. Usually they are crumbly and falling apart. This is a rare find indeed.
"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." Hamlet, scene ii. I love melancholy cand fading beauty. Yet another mesmerizing upload Cheryl. Take care
Beautiful Work
these make me so excited..i have no idea why!..i love old stuff
man this video is SUPERB, you are one talented explorer!!!! i am so inspired by your stuff bro
Wow what a great video...if those walls could talk, the stories they would tell. It's like this place just stood still from the era of the 60s/70s and just stopped, right down to the shag carpet, wallpaper, rotary phones, TVs, etc....wow what an awesome place...thanks for sharing this!
I noticed doodles on the telephone switchboard panel, cool. Enjoyed your video!
Glad to see the hotel had not been vandalized.
I love old buildings, movie theatres, old stuff. And the wall paper at 1:14 is groovy.
cant believe this place is abandoned!!!! I use to come here for evening shows in the summer not so long ago! im only 27 and I have been to a place that is already abandoned! crazy!!!! great great video!!!
Awsome !! Thanks for the post
Well done!
FANTÁSTICS SHOTS!
Bleak and beautiful, nice video.
Why so beautiful......and it gets abandoned..if its still in perfect shape i doubt someone would buy that place
Well preserved I'd love to go there
Someone needs to love this place and bring it back to life.
njot33 all shots were taken at the same location in Sharon Springs NY. I can't answer as to why there were out of state area codes on the phones, and I actually wondered that myself while looking around.
Love the can of PBR on the nightstand...classy lol
this hotel is in perfect condition, I thought when it said abandoned it was going to be reckless! Amazing! I have always wanted to venture to an abandoned hotel! Thankyou :)
Awesome
I have never understood why someone could destroy beauty. I have seen so many things destroyed for no reason. Thank You for your Vids.
Great photos!!! greetings from Poland !!:)
I'm surprised and happy to see that it hasn't been vandalized.
very cool you can tell its and old hotel from the teephones and the tvs.
The screen printed silver mylar wall paper was popular from the mid 70's to the early 80's, but I recall hanging it for customers as late as 88'-89'!
This hotel is awesome. I love the wallpaper! I's in amazingly good condition! You'd think with how old everything is that it would be in even worse shape than it is. It looks like it would have been abandoend in the early 80s at the latest.
I went in there today. People tore it to smithereens. Pushed beds down stairs, broke tubs, smashed toilets. So sad
It officially closed in 2004 I believe. It was a pretty vintage joint even when it was still in operation ;-)
Yeah, the televisions and telephones would be awesome to get!
woah, even when it's abandoned, it's still beautiful
Would not be surprised if Adler Management bought a phone system from a Hotel in Fla rather inexpensively, installed it in The Adler. Looks like owners/mgt did what they could with little resources. Always wondered what this place was like. Love what has been done to the American Hotel, up the street. Many thanks for sharing this reverent observation
i went to Cobleskill college between 2005-2007. I passed it everytime on my way from Rochester. It was always closed with no trespassing signs. I always wondered
lOVE THE DECORATION OF THE WALLS
Those bathtubs look exactly like my grandparent's old cast iron tub and the phones remind me of their house as well.
Hauntingly suspended in a time warp. I took my family there a few years back to see the town, hotels & works.
Heard an amazing story about the caretakers of the Adler, in the end. It was a victim of the Works programs after the depression.
Saratoga got all the attention...funding and CAMP workers
Railways on the west side of the Hudson river that suspended passenger service in the '60s (Conrail) sealed the fate of the tourism industry in the Catskills and beyond.
Just look at Binghamton for a perfect example of a defunct passenger railway destination. (1967)
Virtually killing every resort for a 50-mile radius
The German "Purling House" is one of the few remaining holdouts after 50+ years of no train service.
The letters, pics and thank you notes, on the walls, are priceless artifacts.
The skeletal remains of the other resorts are now some eerie destination, as others have been converted to some "conditioning" camp.
I stumbled across an old resort from the 40,s-50,s in the woods near Acra, NY
The club and the neon lights were still evident after all the years of vandalism.
We are witnessing the sunset of a great utopian empire in our midst.
And so quickly in a few generations...
JohnAnon Where in Acra is the remains of the resort?!
Love seeing those old TV's, and that place doesn't look too bad I just have the urge to sleep on one of the beds, lol.
I was there this weekend. Place is absolutely trashed now by vandalism.
Beautiful video, but noticed that instead of the 518 area code that Sharon Springs is in, many of the phones list 305 which places it in Miami...?
Somehow, that sad piano music fits such a sad scene. Damn shame places like this fell by the wayside. But it 'is' nice to see (at least at the time this video was shot) that the place hadn't been torn up and or vandalized. (yet)
A hotel like that, furnished & sitting empty.. Read where someone tried to buy it & the current owners wanted it to sit & rot, SAD.. At one time it was Beautiful..
Spots like this may come in handy soon people!
This is my town, and i've worked at that switch board!
@ No, I don't know any Rob on Long Island. Sorry.
I WANT THOSE TV SETS!!!!!!!!!!!
just left there today. Buying a house right down the road. (hope) but hey, is that the Roseboro hotel. looks big, still open the other one. Is it on Main street or up the road???
I just want to cry knowing someday, the entire WORLD will look like this
lol posted right before my bday :D
that view at 1:03 is beautiful. if i look out my window all i see is the street and houses i would die to live in a place like that even if it is abandoned
Such a shame. I this hotel wasn't abandoned I'd be willing to pay plenty to spent the night in such a great retro hotel...
wow its nearly untouched! This place must be in a pretty nice area or they keep it well secured. Those phones are old I wonder when this place closed.
@miragebym It was last operational for the 2004 summer season.
Believe it or not the phones still work from room to room. We use to play in there when I was in high school. Almost all the furniture is gone now they auctioned it off a couple a years ago. My dad and a bunch of kids go went to school worked here before it closed down.
Kyle Brown The phones have not worked in years. There is no electricity or working phones
Junior Warburton there was no electric when we were in there. The phones must have been still hooked up but couldn’t call out. Only room to room.
i'd love to do a photo shoot there its stunning
I live in Sharon Springs, I am only 20 years old, so unfortunately I didnt get to experience The Adler in its glory days. I really would like to go inside to look around, but then it would be trespassing, but maybe someday I will nut up and just go in to see it.
they should make a movie there!
about 7 years or so, i found a newspaper in there dated september 1st 2004.
Some nice antique pieces not mid-century, but older. This hotel was hit by a bad case of the 1970's when updated.
I have been there, and it is beautiful, though when I went about 4 years ago, the chair were not stacked on the stage. The build is huge, a little creep and the wall paper is amazing. It is not legal to be entering the premises, nor do I condone it, but I do think it is worth it along with the other amazing sites in this abandoned sulfur springs spa town.
Looks like the elephone switchboard was turned off at 3:47:59.
A footprint in time right there.
This is the first time I've watched any of your video's; you are truly an artist; I love your fade away shots and your attention to detail, the choice of music truly adds to the haunting yet beautiful remains of the surroundings; the building looks wonderful and the way you capture the lighting is fantastic...great video :)
How did you get in?? I just visited it today
Go around back, the collapsed building that leads to the kitchen
Somebody should buy it and make it a vintage hotel to stay in!
One issue I need to point out. These pictures can not be from the Adler. The phones have the area code of 305 printed on the dial. That is a Florida area code. The area code for Sharon Springs NY is 518.
I took all the photos and assure you they were all taken there. Maybe The phones were purchased elsewhere and brought in later. I’m not sure why the numbers are how they are, but I’d have nothing to gain by fibbing about them being there. Thanks for watching the video! :)
The telephone at 3:11 is a long way from home if this is in New York State! Area code 305 is Miami,FL. Good Video! Interesting.
Indeed! The hotel owner brought the phone system from FL up to NY :)
This reminds me of an abandoned hotel I saw recently when I went to South Carolina. It was called the Beachwalk Hotel. It was really a beautiful place... But then one day someone decided to just up and leave... The place doesn't even look abandoned... Just frozen in time... It's really weird but at the same time, really cool. I took some photos of it of course, but I couldn't get inside. :/
Always wondered if the last person that checked out knew they were the last person that checked out? Hope they can save this place. Any updates?
I love some of the wallpaper.The room at 4:57 that is green is very creepy though
is this still there?
it looks like its still in good shape though i bet it was a nice hotel in its day
every time during the summer I walk past there
i hope this hotel gets reopened it looks pretty cool, still looks in great shape
how do you get inside of this place?
These are photos of more than one hotel. One phone has a New York area code, and other phones have Florida area codes. Not all of these photos are of one place, apparently.
im pretty sure all that switchbourd equipment still works if powered... it be funny to call a room... i have done that in other old abandon hotels with a generator and some wiring..lol
Is it still there and if so who maintains it?
want those telephones,old school WE500 ,hotlines &others
that is the RADDEST wallpaper i have ever seen....no joke :)
do they have good cable tv and wifi?
that hotel looks in good shape still
this what i call a classy hotel
Looked like a nice hotel X)
Wonder Why it Shut Down :/
We were in the area a handful of years ago and inquired about this buidling. We were told it was purchased and going to be restored. Did that ever happen?
WOW THAT HOTEL LOOKS LIKE THEY'VE JUST CLOSED ITS DOORS & THEY'VE NEVER CAME BACK PLU I'AM SO SURPRISED THAT ALL OF THE HOTEL'S ASSECORIES ARE STILL THERE AFTER SOME YEARS AS THEY'VE CLOSED ITS DOORS, AND PLUS HOW MANY YEARS THIS HOTEL WAS CLOSED?
