Love coming to Northstar! The facility is beautiful! The rooms are great. The communication is easy too. Of course we come during off season, so the downside is a lot of the shops and restaurants can be closed. Some of the pool areas were also closed. Truckee is so close though you have options there. Plus this hotels has activities that you can sign up for some are free and some you pay. I liked the theater option! The scenery around is just beautiful!

I was a little annoyed check out was as early as 10 am. We were there during an extremely slow season too and when we asked for a later check out they gave us 30 mins.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at! Everything is so beautiful and cozy! Feels like you’re in a cabin and each room has its own fireplace. Very quiet in October but it’s what we needed!!

Great offseason pricing for what was billed as a luxury studio apartment. In actuality it was a bare bones uncomfortable, loud room where I could hear other guests next door (plates clanking in the morning) and upstairs (suitcases rolling on the floor). The concierge, Patti, called the day prior promising a great stay and tried roping me into a 90 minute timeshare presentation- if you don't attend checkout is 10AM. No other hotel on our 10 day, thiusand mile journey across California did this...I mentioned to the concierge that this was my Wife and I's Honeymoon, expecting some kind of upgrade, anything- other hotels upgraded the room, left a nice note or gave champagne- We received nothing and after I declined the timeshare I received no further correspondence from the concierge. We will not be returning to this or any other Hyatt Vacation Club location- this was the worst hotel experience I've ever had, and I've stayed at a Motel that reeked of cigarettes and mold.

Most of the lamp shades were in poor condition in the condo (torn or stained). There was road construction on the property that started at 8 am to 4 pm. Hard to enjoy the outside balcony with all that noise.

Great resort experience. If you're looking for the feeling of a full service resort, this is a great choice. Nice amenities, friendly and helpful staff. If you are staying off season, be warned that some restaurants and shops in the village will be closed.
