Official Description (provided by the hotel)

Featuring a mid-mountain location on Northstar California, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe is the first and only AAA Five Diamond mountain resort in California. Highlights include luxurious guest rooms and suites with in-room fire places and floor-to-ceiling windows; ski-in/ski-out access on Northstar California with ski valet services; a 17,000 sq ft slopeside spa with treatments themed around water and woods; extraordinary dining in Manzanita featuring rustic California cuisine with mountain resort influences; a signature "Marshmology" experience each evening at the fire pit featuring the “Art of the S’more"; and a comprehensive children’s program allowing parents to make the most of their Lake Tahoe vacationDuring the winter season, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe’s mid-mountain location provides for ski-in / ski-out access to Northstar California, consistently touted as one of the nation’s best family-friendly ski resorts. With a slope-side location on Northstar’s “Big Easy” run, the ski-in/ski-out access can be enjoyed by skiers and riders of any level. When you are ready for a day on the mountain, simply head down to mountain concierge where the ski valets will assist you with your boots and escort you to your skis and poles waiting on the slopes. Northstar offers world-class grooming and provides a plethora of family activities in the Village at Northstar accessed from the hotel by an intermountain gondola. At the heart of the Village is a 9,000 sq ft ice skating rink surrounded by cozy fire pits and a variety of options for shopping, dining and entertainment. During the summer months, Northstar transforms into family-friendly playground offering the region’s best mountain adventure. Families and their four-legged friends will love hiking the easy loop to Sawmill Lake. After a day on the mountain, guests can gather around the fire pit with The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe Marshmologist for complimentary s’mores, enjoy cocktails on the resort’s heated outdoor terrace or enjoy a game of bocce in the backyard. ... more

“Stunning location for pleasure”

Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

A beautiful well maintained luxury hotel with amazing staff. A superb mixologist on the bar who can make up a cocktail on the spot based on the sort of thing you like. Rooms spotless and very comfortable. And the bath is the deepest I've ever seen. Bliss. It's definitely a hotel I will come back to for pleasure. It's also... More

“wonderful stay at the Concierge level”

Reviewed 1 week ago

We stayed at Ritz for the weekend for a conference and took our family to get pampered at Ritz Concierge level. We had a great time getting pampered at the concierge level for 2 nights, with personal attention from the concierge supervisor Matt and all the staff. The food at the concierge club lounge was sophisticated and specially made, we... More

“Beautiful property but Terrible Food and Beverage Service”

We had a gorgeous suite that was really spectacular. Lots of space, tons of closet space. Two beautiful bathrooms and a view toward the ski slopes. Great location. But the food service was absolutely terrible. Every time we ordered from room service there was a problem. One morning for breakfast it was over an hour for delivery of oatmeal and... More

“The best in Tahoe”

Reviewed 2 weeks ago via mobile

This resort may not be on the beach for a summer trip, but it is on the mountain and offers great views. Rooms were very clean and up to what you would expect for a ritz Carlton. This has to be the best hotel in terms of quality in the area.

“Memorable Stay with One Consistent Hiccup”

Reviewed 2 weeks ago

I got everything I expected from the RC brand. Bespoke service and tremendous facilities nestled in a picturesque mountain location. We were very happy with our one bedroom suite on the 4th floor. We added lounge access which was located on the 5th floor with panoramic views. We particularly enjoyed tea time with scrumptious nibblies and Champagne/Prosecco. Selections for breakfast... More

“Beautiful location, well Run”

The location, rooms, decor and staff was great here. Club level food/drink and staff were superb. They even have a "marshmologist" to teach how to do smores. Would highly recommend to family, friends and business associates.

“Location, location, oops!”

The staff of the Ritz is extremely accommodating. Loved the work out facility and our room. However, the restaurant was closed for a private event, leaving In Room Dining out only option for dinner on the property. All other cafes and restaurants closed before we arrived at 4:30 pm. In Room Dining was average at best. We ordered 2 Cesar... More

“Great hotel near Tahoe”

We stayed here over Labor Day weekend and had a great stay. We had a corner room with great views. Customer service was excellent as were the amenities.

“Very good hotel!”

We stayed at this resort for four nights. Overall, this property would receive an excellent rating if it were not for the exceptional costs for every service. The staff is incredibly accommodating and very friendly. Most days, we were at the adult pool by ourselves...the advantage of traveling off season. Disadvantages included that the shops and even coffee were closed... More

“It's not really family friendly.”

We have a family of three: 2 adults and a 5 year old. We specifically chose this resort because it was billed as family friendly with the Ritz Kids club and activities. We generally go to Mexico for family vacations and stay at high-end all-inclusive resorts with kids clubs so our son has kid time and age-appropriate activities and we... More
