"Outstanding luxury boutique hotel"

10.0

My wife and I stayed at Desolation hotel for 2 weeks. From the warm welcome on arrival to the wonderful facilities this boutique hotel is perfect. It is conveniently situated a 5 or so minute walk from the main ski gondola at Heavenly and a very short walking distance to the village and lake. There is lots of parking for guests and we used it as a base to ski Kirkwood, Northstar and Palisades. After a day skiing the pool, hot tub fire pits and private sauna were wonderful. Our room had a very boutique high end 5 star feel and facilities like the gym are nicely equipped with Peleton bikes. The in house restaurant Maggies is the best restaurant we visited in 3 weeks in California. We will definitely be back !

"Desolation Hotel lives up to everything it claims to be and then some! One of the best ski destination hotels that I hav"

10.0

The Desolation Hotel is sublime! It lived up my expectations after a lot of research on the best places to stay in Lake Tahoe and based on all the expert reviews that I had read in advance. Amazing attention to detail across all aspects of the property and the wonderful friendly staff made this a great place to stay. The room aesthetics are fantastic, Maggie’s restaurant is top notch for either a delicious cocktail or a sumptuous meal, and the pool and spa area with the fire pits and the chill vibes were the perfect spot to relax after a day on the slopes. My wife I travelled from Australia to ski in Tahoe. We have travelled all around the world. So glad we chose to stay at Desolation Hotel!

Nothing! Desolation Hotel and their staff are awesome! We arrived late at night due to our flights being delayed, but despite reception being closed, the hotel kept in touch with us and made sure we could access our room without and problems. The service was exceptional.

The location of the property is fairly central with the strip/casinos nearby. The rooms have nice finishes with the balcony tub being a nice touch. Maggie’s restaurant for brunch is a must, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. We look forward to coming back.

Should have stayed longer
