Staff was very kind. They responded immediately when we were locked out of our room. Wish there was more dining options. But it is the off season. Market was within walking distance. Would love to go during the winter season but the prices are too high. We will definitely stay there again.

Not great

The room was clean, but the bed was horribly uncomfortable. I might as well have been sleeping on a wood plank. In addition, the hot water lasted a while 2 minutes in the shower. When I asked the front desk in the morning at check out, they said “oh yeah, this building is like that”. I don’t see how that’s allowed? When we got there, there was no one at the desk and we had to wait about 5 mins until someone showed up, who was new and couldn’t access all of the correct systems to check us in.

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.
