The American Hotel

The American Hotel is very famous and gets excellent write ups—but my experience was shockingly subpar. First, travelers should be aware that there is no 24 hour desk. After the restaurant closes, there is only an emergency number and a door to the rooms from the outside that is accessible by key pad. Second, the furniture is dusty, broken down, and a bit unloved. The rooms are randomly furnished with no real direction. Multiple lamps had burned out light bulbs.||The bathrooms are very clean but the plumbing is problematic. The shower in room 15 continuously and loudly dribbled during my entire weekend stay, making the room kind of unpleasant. At check out, I was asked why I didn’t complain about it previously by the desk manager and I then had to ask him what he would have done about it g

Myself and a woman I'm dating had a 7pm reservation. We were greeted very warmly upon our arrival and it only got better from that point. Seated in the bar area at a 2 top table which I thought was perfect it was alive with all types laughs and conversations which made for a great atmosphere! Food wine service dessert as always was perfect took our time after 3 hours I know thats a long one but my date was so engaging gorgeous and a little tipsy it felt like 1 hour. No pressure to leave or flip our table if your in Sag Harbor don't miss this place it's fantastic!!

It is with great disappointment that I must convey my dissatisfaction regarding our recent visits to this establishment. My wife and I, having graced this venue on multiple occasions with the hope of consistency, have resolved never to return. The ambiance, regrettably, lacks the refinement one would anticipate from an establishment of purported standing. The culinary offerings were underwhelming, a stark contrast to what one expects when patronizing such a place. Moreover, the conduct of the staff was, to put it mildly, unbecoming. A particular waiter—whose name, if memory serves, is Osmian—displayed a demeanor towards fellow patrons that was nothing short of appalling. It is most disconcerting that the management appears disengaged from these glaring deficiencies. Observing waitstaff i

A couple of weeks ago, my wife and I stayed overnight at the American Hotel and had dinner. The room was fine, but we were disappointed by the restaurant. It is a historic place with occasional celebrities and Hampton's prices but the food and service did not live up to our expectations. The duck breast portion was minuscule, the smoked trout appetizer was not appetizing and our waiter was stretched thin. The oysters were very good.

Ate dinner with my wife for our anniversary, the staff made us feel special. Mikhail was our server, 5 stars for him too! The food was excellent. Loved the Lobster Risotto and the Bananas Foster.
