What guests think

What guests think

Ski-in/ski-out convenience and a strong ski valet earn repeated praise, while some guests enjoy spacious rooms and special touches. Common frustrations include closed pools or restaurants, expensive valet parking and add-on fees, limited dining variety, and slow shuttle or valet service. Expect a beautiful mountain resort with excellent skiing access but variable amenities and service.

Ski-in/ski-out access and the ski valet are praised, but many note renovations and closures that limited pools or on-site options. Mandatory/expensive valet, paid fire pits, and a limited shuttle added inconvenience.

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.

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 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.

The property is beautifully designed and appointed. Unfortunately, during our stay, extensive remodeling was being done in multiple places, with multiple areas blocked off, making it difficult to get from place to place. It seems they could have done just one place at a time. And the room service charges were absolutely ridiculous, with the add-on charges for delivery, etc. more than doubling the base prices, which were already high.

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 hotel is very outdated with cracks in the bathtub and dusty carpeting - had allergies all night due to the dust. Does not have a 5 star feel, small rooms with tiny balconies with hardly any standing room (no room for chairs or anything). The staff was amazing, especially room service staff, went above and beyond.

Sadly there was a number of things that did not work in the residence:TV, fireplace, main light switch in bathroom, shower handle, microwave and dishwasher (broken glass in there). For a resort such as The Ritz Carlton this is really not up to standard. Staff was very friendly, but unable to fix these items after multiple attempts. Out of the three days we stayed, we spent more than half a day attempting to fix at least some these things. I would appreciate a partial refund - the property could not do so, since I booked via Orbitz.

Very overpriced. Unreasonable pricing on food as well plus high service add ons and fees. Backyard bbq restaurant took 1 hr for an order of a chicken sandwich, mac and cheese, chicken tenders. Cafe blue salad bowl had an olive pit in it that has likely cracked my tooth for which I now need to get checked. In room heating didn't work. Was cold first night. Second night we had to wake up a few times to turn the fireplace on/off to regulate the temperature. The grounds and views and location on the ski resort is great yes, but overall the place doesn't justify such high nightly rates.

I would like Ritz Carlton to work harder to improve their guest services past the surface level. We had several issues with their various guest services. We had to call twice, then actually walk down to the concierge to ask for the third time before we got some extra towels. The property has a ski/snowboard boot locker of sorts on the lobby floor - the apparent purpose is to minimize their guest walking around in their ski wear - and they had almost misplaced my snowboard boots and went scrambling around 20 minutes to find them. This ended up costing me some early morning time on the slopes. Their obligatory valet is not great, taking around 20 minutes to get my car. When we were checking out, we called ahead for bell service but they never arrived. Look, it’s nice that there is staff all over the property greeting their guests and I appreciate their courtesy; but you are working with bunch of Silicon Valley engineers who are paying attention about some work being accomplished. I appreciate the politeness, but I wish that they would look into improving their guest services that deliver more tangible results.

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!

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.
