    Came up for a weekend and wanted to try a different place to stay and found the Tahoe Star Hotel. This is a recently remodeled, eight-room, historic hotel a few short blocks from the downtown area. This place has the vibe of a B&B but with the convenience of bathrooms in each guest room. Rooms are furnished in a modern contemporary decor with a nicely appointed bathroom. A huge benefit in this location is the dedicated hotel parking lot. There is no A/C in the room, but a fan was placed in the room prior to our arrival and kept the room comfortable. Was a little surprised there was no refrigerator or TV. There is a coffee area on the first floor along with a filtered water filling station. The train tracks are across the street from the hotel but we didn't find that to be a big deal (complimentary earplugs are available in the lobby)

    Adorable property, excellent customer service (Emma!), comfortable beds, and perfect location. Truckee Wine Walk was so FUN too.

    Although we did not anticipate the delay, Emma gave us clear directions on what to do if we arrived late.

We arrived shortly after check-in time on a Wednesday and were able to get our keys without too much trouble, although the lady that was checking us in didn't seem too suited for customer service - she gave off sarcastic, "I don't want to be here" vibes. Our room itself was cozy, clean, and comfortable. Some of the items could have been better stocked before our stay, such as the tissues - I think we only had a few of them in the box so quickly ran out and had to request housekeeping bring more the next day. Housekeeping isn't done daily so you do have to request it manually if you need anything. There were a couple of water stains on the ceiling but nothing too major. All toiletries like shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, lotion, and hand soap are provided and the quality is actually pretty decent. I was very impressed with the complimentary breakfast included in your stay. You have hot items like eggs, potatoes, and sausage as well as cereal, muffins, bread, oatmeal, and a waffle maker. The hot items rotate, too, so you don't have the exact same breakfast each day of your stay. Staff was friendly, and the common area was very comfortable with a fair amount of seating. I believe coffee is also available all day. There was a power outage during our stay that lasted around 6-7 hours but luckily it happened in the middle of the night so most people probably didn't even realize it and it didn't impact our stay at all. I just happened to notice when I woke up in the middle of the night and noticed lights not turning on and some electronics not working.

    No problems here! This is a cute hotel (a bit more expensive compared to other alternatives in the…read morearea). I would recommend staying here if you are headed to North Star or Palisades to go skiing and snowboarding. Very conveniently located! The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Very easy to navigate the free breakfast, which has a decent variety. The parking is also free here! Overall no complaints :)

    My experience is seriously outdated and may not reflect the current quality…read more Back in the winter of 1978, I was dead on my feet and in desperate need of a bed. I found the Truckee Hotel / Saloon & got a room. They told me about the shared bath down the hall. I thought, sarcastically, how quaint. I got to my room. Somewhere upstairs on the Eastern side. It was dark out and still snowing. My body found the bed and was attacked by a feather mattress! That new experience didn't last long as I was asleep the second my head hit the pillow. I was out cold until morning. The beautiful sunrise in the window filled the room. As I looked around, I was completely disoriented, having no clue where I was, or why I was there. Seeing the antique water bowl & pitcher along with the other decor, I felt as if I had traveled back in time. Then I went to the window. A thick blanket of snow covered everything. I was able to make out the outlines of a sawmill across the street. There was no activity outside. Several minutes had passed and I was still very confused. I opened the door and just a few steps down the hall I found the bath. Peeking in, I saw the clawfoot bathtub, sink, with pipes exposed on the walls. Only then did I remember the woman telling me about the bath down the hall. Finally after figuring out where I was, I was able to appreciate my surroundings. The room wasn't merely adequate, it was more on the spectacular side. Such attention to detail, as if it was still in the 1800s. That was the first and only time in my life when I made up a hotel bed after sleeping in it! I actually felt guilty that I had disturbed anuthing. I collected my few belongings and staggered down the stairs. Before I had the chance to ask, the same woman who had rented me the room asked how I wanted my coffee! My wife isn't even that fast! Back on life support, she asked if I was satisfied with my room and if I slept OK. I was completely honest & said that I didn't even look at it before I fell asleep. Then I was out cold until a few minutes ago. Once I figured out where I was, it was only then that I truly appreciated it. Even the shared bath was immaculate. All of that, especially the service was extremely uncommon in the 1970s. I really had gone back in time 100 years! After drinking about a gallon of coffee, I was able to venture outside. I found my new Ford 4x4 pickup covered in a couple feet of snow! I actually had to dig it out. By the time I was done, the Interstate was open and I headed back to Nevada, promising myself that I'd return someday when I had more time to appreciate it. While I've passed through Truckee many times since, I still never had the opportunity to stop. Someday I still plan to keep my promise. I've stayed at the full spectrum of hotels & motels but this has always been my favorite. Perhaps I was born in the wrong century. I hope that when I finally return, that it's still as great as I remember. This was the kind of place that I'd invite my parents to stay. They were extremely well off and only stayed in the finest accommodations. I know, without any doubt that while different than most places, that they would be very comfortable there. I hope it's still the same. One more thing... After sleeping on a feather mattress, I drained my waterbed and bought my own feather bed! I highly recommend this place!

    The Good: The location in downtown Truckee can't be beat. The historic nature of the building is…read morecharming. There's a great indoor communal space and outdoor deck on the second floor. The Bad: The room was "tired" and depressing with grime in the bathroom and carpet. The price was way too high for the poor condition of the room. The Ugly: I was literally burned when the shower suddenly went from warm to scalding hot for a few seconds. When I reported this to the staff, I was told this had never happened before. Insensitive as well as hard to believe.

Our fifth-floor room was sharp and spacious. Bed and pillows were comfortable enough. We enjoyed the Club Lounge access (same floor!); it was an amazing amenity and absolutely worth it. One of the highlights was meeting onsite manager Gus completely by happenstance. He immediately elevated what was already a wonderful, customer-forward experience. It's not vacation unless I make a trip to the spa. And I am so grateful for my experience! I had a 100-minute massage with Joey, and my knots, adhesions, and trigger points were no match for her firm yet incredibly gentle hands. She took extra time and care with me, and I was especially touched by her compassion as we discussed some of my ongoing needs following breast cancer. After my massage, I had a 50-minute facial with Bree, and her hands were unbelievably therapeutic and relaxing. She listened carefully to my concerns and personalized the experience beautifully. The California Organic Facial using Eminence Organic Skin Care left my skin deeply hydrated, refreshed, and glowing. Five stars for the property, the setting, the service, and especially the people who made our stay so memorable. Gus, Joey, and Bree , thank you for making an already beautiful Tahoe experience truly exceptional. I would love to return!

After 5 days, I felt like a friend to the staff. To feel the love to that level is not typical. We WILL be back, and I am confident the staff will continue to stay elite. 5 stars no doubt!
