塔霍星飯店

We enjoyed our stay at the Tahoe Star for several reasons. Shannon did a great job helping us with our reservations and restaurant suggestions. The hotel is a convenient 2 blocks from the Amtrak station. Also, it is within walking distance of the Main Street restaurants. Perfect! The remodel of the hotel freshened it up but maintained its rustic charm.

Such a nice hotel in a great location. A historic building being saved and shared. Everything is up to date inside for comfort. While you will hear the trains come through town some, this older building is very solid and our sleep was not bothered by the train sounds. Ear plugs are provided though if you want them. We appreciated the extra efforts toward cleaning. We utilized the water bottle refilling station and coffee/tea bar area daily. Number one was how helpful Shannan and crew were in making our stay great. We arrived via Amtrak and they accommodated our different time table for check in.

Super cute newly renovated building , very inviting front desk staff. Run by a very nice family. The room was very clean and I liked the modern feel of it even though it’s a historical building. Great breakfast right across the street and discounts for staying there. Location is right downtown on Truckee river

My husband, myself, and another couple stayed at Tahoe Start Hotel last weekend for the first time. It was fabulous - we were greeted by the Inn Keeper, Shannon, and also met the owners David and Desiree. The main entrance and hotel rooms are all key-entry and 24/7. The rooms were well equipped - nicely remodeled, subway tiled rainforest showers, comfortable king beds, and nice linens. It's really cozy and like a fine B&B without the breakfast (they have complimentary snacks, vending machines, coffee/Keurig, tea, hot chocolate, etc.). The best part was the hotel is a 5 minute walking distance to the downtown "*****" to fine restaurants like Moody's and Bar of America, as well as numerous boutique retail shops and bars. Right across from the hotel on the corner of W. River Street is an excellent diner for breakfast. It was so much fun to wander around downtown Truckee for the day and then have dinner and catch a great band playing at Bar of America in the evening! The location is really the key, as being able to walk and not drive (or have to find a parking spot in busy downtown Truckee) was a sincere convenience and especially when letting loose with a few cocktails. Ski areas and Tahoe recreation are only a 10-15 minute drive. The hotel is flanked by the Truckee River just behind the building which offers the wonderful soothing sound of the rushing water, and railroad tracks one street away in the front - a beautiful setting year round. The history of the hotel is quite interesting, dating back to the 1700's? or 1800's? and the Shafer family who built the historic home were in the lumber business and influenced the building of the town of Truckee, CA. The development of the railroad is great history and the stories of the time are abundant and interesting. Staying at Tahoe Star Hotel is like a step back in time, and remodeled in the last couple of years to bring all the luxuries and comfort of our current times. We stayed in king bed rooms 4 and 5 on the 2nd floor and these rooms were the best! Also, the hotel was very quiet and peaceful, despite being fully booked - the only sounds are the river flowing (if you have you window open you can hear it) and the occasional train passing through town. They offer ear plugs at the front desk if you want to block out these mystical sounds. We will return again for another weekend "staycation" at Tahoe Star Hotel!
