What guests think

At Best Western Topaz Lake Inn, travelers highlight spacious rooms with lake views and friendly service, but note dated décor and variable cleanliness, while breakfast and amenities range from basic to very good depending on expectations.

The setting is scenic and quiet but quite remote, with limited nearby dining and an occasionally hard to find entrance. Some guests reported low water pressure, noisy or uneven AC, and occasional noise from neighbors. Expect a simple, no-frills stay in an older property suited to travelers passing through.

The room was very spacious and clean. This hotel was extremely quiet and in a beautiful location. We loved our stay here! I only have one suggestion of hotel staff… please consider putting a large trash can outside in the gazebo area! We among others enjoyed sitting under it to look at the lake and relax, but in the wind lots of things were blowing around loudly that shouldn’t have been there… mainly about 6 old beer cans.if a trash can is there I think this issue would be less likely 🙂 otherwise it is a cute little spot to appreciate the views!

Check in was easy. Hotel staff was friendly. Room was large and comfortable and clean. Spa was not working. And in the morning if you wanted to waffle, the guy working, the front counter came and pour your batter for you, which was kind of strange. And he didn’t fill it all the way up so the cooked waffle was spotty. The water they had available for breakfast was warm with lemon that looked like it had been sitting in there for too long, because the water was not clear at all. And did not taste good.

This is a nice option in an otherwise remote area. The breakfast station was nice, the lake view was great and the room was spacious and clean. Some of the decor/ amenities in the room were a bit out of date, like not having a USB port in any of the lamps or as an add-on for easy electronic charging. But, there's a gas station next door where I was able to go pick up a cube.

The woman that checked us in was very nice however the quality of hotel and room was less than expected. The minute we walked in something was off, it was bad enough to bring in blankets and towels from our car to cover the sheets with. As we started to get ready to sleep, there was 2 spiders crawling on the sheets, after that we decided to check out early and make the drive home through the night.

Room was clean and quiet. Beds were comfortable. The shower/toilet really needs to be updated. The shower is so old and there is zero water pressure and toilets are very old and stained. The rates are high for this area so it'd be nice to have some water pressure and clean toilets. Besides that, it's a great location and we would stay here again.

It was a good time but the bathroom fan didn’t work properly and the shampoo and conditioner was not in a place that you could use it in the shower and the lotion was so hard to get out of the tiny little bottle and not enough to use on the entire body none of them enough for 1 person and their were 2 of us! Not worth the price of the room, View was good looking at the Lake staff was accommodating, room was clean,Air conditioner worked.

We came from out of state for a wedding. The first Front Desk agent was VERY helpful, going as far as checking the passes for me to insure our safe arrival ahead of the storm. Our room was on the first floor & had a great view of the lake with seating by the window to enjoy it. Rooms could use a small directory (there was 1 map at the front desk providing directional information) of local business with closing times since it’s such a small town. Beds were a touch hard for my liking but that’s a preference thing. Normal continental breakfast…if you’re really hungry head down to the topaz lodge for breakfast & a beautiful view of the lake while you eat. Overall rating would be 4.5 for price, seclusion, view & breakfast ❤️. Good Job little Best Western

Scenic lake views and a quiet setting are praised, but the inn is remote with limited nearby dining and an entrance that can be tricky to find at night. Convenient for travelers along US 395 and routes toward Tahoe.

I needed a place at the last minute. I wasn’t going to try the Sonora Pass at night. It was very hard to see my way from 395 to the hotel on private unlit roads on a steep hill. I was checked in without a fuss and the room was fine. There weren’t enough blankets and the room had one of those noisy heat controls that didn’t work well. There was no easy way to get food at night so I got very hungry before the very decent breakfast spread in the morning.

This is our sixth time booking a stay at Topaz Lake Inn. The Host offers us the room we like, on the third floor, with a panoramic view of the lake. The room is sparkly clean, the mattress is super comfortable, and the WIFI is extremely quick and reliable. The inn is a great starting point for HWY 108, 4, and Lake Tahoe. It is 2 minutes from a Tesla supercharger and a convenience store.
