A wonderful property, we had a 2-bedroom property which was huge and had everything we needed. A good place to stay to hike and explore down on Lake Tahoe. Only negative was reception staff, they appeared to have no local knowledge when asked a couple of questions!

Great Place to Stay

This place was fantastic. The beds were surprisingly comfortable and the lacation was great, about half way between Truckee and Kings Beach. Lake Donnor is also about 25 mins away and less crowded than Lake Tahoe.

We loved our stay at the Hyatt Northstar! The property feels tucked away from the “chaos” of Kings Beach, giving you a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, but it’s still close enough to everything that access isn’t a hassle. We were pleasantly surprised with a fantastic room upgrade—huge bonus points for that! The unit was spacious, well-appointed, and perfect for unwinding after a day out. That said, the only downside was the lighting: only certain parts of the unit had working lights, which was a bit frustrating at night. Despite that, the overall experience was great, and this is definitely a place that makes us want to return. If you’re looking for a more serene Tahoe experience without sacrificing convenience, this is the spot.

No nightlife, not in an area with much to do. Not a daily cleaning. We understood from the website description something closer to the lake.

The location is nice - close to grocery and restaurants. Some of the rooms could use some updates and some detailed cleaning. One of our sinks did not drain properly, a shower head needed replacement and some cobwebs in the corners of rooms. Otherwise beds were comfy, kitchen was nice and had the basics available.

Great place.

We really enjoyed the Hyatt Vacation Club. They did try to get us to go listen to a sales pitch. Had to tell them no a couple times. But that was the only negative. I spent every morning eating breakfast and drinking coffee on our balcony. Absolutely amazing.

Didn’t like anything about this property, Limited dining options, inconsistent house keeping, extremely hot corridors, dirty parking garage, old smelly carpets, outdated in-room entertainment options, uncomfortable mattresses, no breakfast, impossibly loud neighbors, so on and on. A modern budget hotel is better.save your money.
