Firelite Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I loved how close the beach was The hot tub was great I loved the mountain view"

Olympic Village Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful property and breathtaking setting. Nestled up against the mountain, nature is up close. You can even see the High Camp tram from the property. The building encloses on three sides a beautiful park/courtyard with paved walkways, mature trees, and various seating, outdoor games and recreational features, including a swimming pool and three hot tubs. The Olympics history is also seen and felt. The Tyrolian-style building was built as lodging for the 1960 Olympics athletes, and shows its age a little bit, but that adds to the charm. The genius of our wing's room arrangement gives you a window to the outer natural setting and on the opposite side, you have a small balcony looking out over the park. This is to say nothing of all the outdoor opportunities at your doorstep. We loved staying here and would definitely come again."

The Inn at Truckee

8/10 Good

"Overall, I'm satisfied with my choice. I needed an after hours check in. They accommodated with my key in a lockbox. The first night was rough. The springs in the bed were worn out in the center. Felt like sleeping on the inside hinge of a book. Thankfully they were able to move me to a newer bed the next morning. Pros: Fridge and microwave, close to stores and restaurants, friendly staff, ample parking. Cons: The breakfast was sad, lamps were in various stages of disrepair, the tables outside welcome loud late night socializing, lot's of construction right in front of the hotel."
