Upon check in we were given a complimentary suite upgrade at no additional charge. I was shocked but so pleasantly surprised because the rooms are $900 per night. We definitely got our moneys worth. Suite was fantastic!

We reserved a "corner view" room with incredible views of the mountainside. Our view was of massive pool construction work accompanied by a LOT of noise. Concrete cutters, jack hammers, etc. The room was uninhabitable, and management should have known that and not put any guest in that room during the construction. They gave us a $300 credit on our $4000 charge. Seriously? Also was greeted with an empty mini-bar. What? There is nothing to do there in the summer. It's a winter resort. Don't go in the summer.

The Ritz Carlton Lake Tahoe is a very impressive property sitting on top of a mountainside in the Northstar resort area about halfway between Truckee and Kings Beach. Service was world class, from the second we arrived until we left all the staff we interacted were very accommodating and were good at anticipating our needs. We visited in the slower season between Summer and the Winter Ski season, so the hotel was very quiet. The pool was closed for renovation at this time which was a bit disappointing ( I was really looking forward to an after hike soak in the hot tub), but understandable as the window for construction in the high sierras is very short. We ate at both Manzanita the full service restaurant, and the LRL which is the lobby lounge area. Food and service were excellent. I really enjoyed sitting by the large lobby fireplaces after a long day out in the mountains. The quality of the rooms was very nice and housekeeping was excellent. Turndown service was included and they do a very nice job of setting up the room for the evening. Again the personalized level of service was preset here; they left sparkling water and my wife's glasses on her side and left still water and distilled water on my side of the bed for my cpap machine. We are not super big into winter sports but I imagine with the proximity to the mountains and the available amenities this would make a great ski trip destination in the winter as well.

Deceptive status of the amenities. Not all were operational. Non-responsive staff. Housekeeping didn’t show up until late in the day. Difficulty getting vehicle from mandatory valet. Overpriced menu options. Location was beautiful, but a disappointing experience for what is supposed to be an elite level property.

All over is good, but you have to pay for every single step. If you want to seat at fire pit, you should book it and pay a lot of money. All fire pits were reserved, but for 3 days i didn't see and single person seating there.

The property by itself is 20min far from the lake. The picture of the lake in hotel booking pictures will confuse you, well just letting you know there is no lake or river around the hotel. It’s a totally different Ritz property that you can book separately from the hotel and stay there. They charge $800 per person and it’s only for 24hours or less to spend there. Yes I checked the map as well before I was booking and was wondering how come in the pictures I see lake in front of the hotel but on the map not.

The spa was the only disappointment at this property. We were charged an undisclosed service fee of $120.00. I don’t mind paying it however, nothing was mentioned at booking or at our arrival to the spa. The spa is small and has a very limited couples area.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Ritz Carlton Lake Tahoe, and I must say, it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality from the staff. The attention to detail throughout my stay was truly remarkable. Every aspect of the hotel, from the beautifully appointed rooms to the exquisite dining options, showcased a commitment to excellence that is unrivaled. The level of care put into ensuring the comfort and satisfaction of guests was evident in every interaction. The staff at the Ritz Carlton Lake Tahoe went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Their professionalism, courtesy, and willingness to accommodate any request was truly commendable. It's clear that they take great pride in their work and are dedicated to providing a top-notch experience for their guests. The location itself is a paradise for nature lovers, with breathtaking views and access to a wide range of outdoor activities. Whether you're a skier, hiker, or simply seeking a tranquil retreat, this resort offers something for everyone. I can wholeheartedly recommend the Ritz Carlton Lake Tahoe to anyone seeking a luxurious and unforgettable getaway. This establishment truly sets a standard of excellence in hospitality that is second to none. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

It was a construction nightmare! They mentioned that the pool was closed due to construction, but they did not mention that there is jackhammers bulldozers dump trucks… It was the worst experience ever. I sent an email to the concierge to express our disappointment and didn't receive a response back. That says a lot about the resort. Don't recommend until going after November when the construction is completed.

The hotel was beautiful, set back in the trees on the slopes so very quiet and outside of town. The beds/rooms were very comfortable, quiet and spacious. The staff was very nice and welcoming. The only complaint I had was that the main pool/pool restaurant were closed for renovation. This wasn’t noted during booking or on their website. They did offer use of the smaller spa pool with poolside service from another restaurant but it was quite a bit smaller. Overall it was a beautiful stay.

We came for our 15th wedding anniversary. This would be my 26th Ritz Carlton I've stayed at. For some reason the price point was doubled for the time we selected to stay. Everyone was really nice. The staff was great but I definitely have some grievance. When I checked in I let them know it was a special day for us. I'm a gold bonvoy Marriott member and I'm use to getting upgraded upon arrival. I was told the property wasn't at capacity, but would be later because of the snow. The front desk manager said they gave me an upgrade...but the room was 30 rooms away from the elevator and small. Usually at the 5 star hotels we stay at for our anniversary celebrations they have flowers, cards, candy etc .. comp'd awaiting our arrival. We didn't get anything special like that and I felt slighted. Especially paying over 2k for two nights when the prices now are 500-600 nightly (for this time last week). The thing that made me most upset was upon check in we were told by the front desk that there was a shuttle that goes into Truckee. That it was free by the hotel..... Come to find out it's one man whose the driver for the hundred of people staying at the resort. We waited over 2 hours at one point to get back to our room. It was snowing and I understand it takes time to go up and down the mountain. But seeing this is a 5 star property....you expect more than the average accommodations. The driver was great but you can tell he was overwhelmed and being pressured by the hotel to hurry up.
