Marriott Grand Residence Club, Lake Tahoe – 1 to 3 Bedrooms & Pent

We enjoyed our 3 night stay here in September. The place is actually a time-share facility - not a true hotel. No worries though - the staff were nice and the amenities more than adequate. They even had a scavenger hunt for kids (both young and old). Nice pools area and fitness room.

Upon our arrival, we were immediately impressed when were able to check in well before the "written-in-stone" 4:00 check-in time. We were flabbergasted, for sure, as all the Marriott Vacation Club sites that we have visited have usually strictly adhered to that required 4:00 check-in time. We were quite pleased with our suite........enjoyed the two fireplaces in it. We found it to be very quiet, for the most part, too. Everything was well-cleaned and in proper working order. We were a bit disappointed that we had no washer/dryer combo in the room, but we were aware of that before we had booked. (We found the Laundry Room very easily and had the whole place to ourselves the morning we used it.) Many provided amenities/activities available....including a beautiful pool, Fitness Center, miniature golf, bungie trampoline, etc. The staff was friendly and very helpful in answering questions and recommending restaurant options, etc. The valet staff did an AMAZING job with dealing with the never-ending incoming/outgoing vehicles. A terrific location too! We were able to walk to most shops and restaurants during our stay. Hope to return here in the future!

I would say it's closer to a 3.5. While the hotel is beautiful and the staff are friendly there are some things that were disappointing. As a Marriott vacation club owner I was surprised and disappointed that there weren't washers and dryers in the room. I was also disappointed that the bed wasn't a king size. The door to the balcony was difficult to use and the street below was rather loud. The kitchen was nice and I liked having a fireplace in the room. The bathroom was a large size but the tub was HUGE and not necessary in my opinion. The valet parking was not ideal but was glad that we did not have to pay for it.

Uno de los mejores hoteles en los que me he alojado. El personal fue increíble y los restaurantes del hotel eran todos muy buenos. Las habitaciones eran modernas y me encantó la vista del lago Tahoe. Es uno de nuestros primeros viajes a Lake Tahoe y volveremos a menudo.

Platinum member. We were in 2175 and 2177 joint rooms and stayed with points and points upgrade. The only platinum benefit was they were willing to offer late check out 12:00 instead of 11:00 (I was told to ask for the late check out at the day of the check out). Pros Big clean and comfy rooms with a full kitchen. The location is as close as you can get to the Gondola and with many restaurants in walking distance since it is the center of the village. The staff was always smiling and wanted to help with a shout-out to Nate from the Vallet services who made it a 5+ stay. We came with an oversized vehicle and as it could not fit into the underground garage Nate asked for our schedule during the stay, laid out the alternatives, and helped us to find the best option that suited our specific needs, all with a smile. While the hotel is not new it is very well-kept and in great condition. Cons - For families, if the price is identical I would stay in the sister property (Timber Lodge) as they have the same amenities plus a kids club that has some activities. Overall great stay

Absolutely loved the hotel and the wonderful room or should I say the huge apartment we ended up in. Every little detail was considered in the kitchen and bathrooms, from free washing powder (there’s a free laundry room with driers to) to lots of lovely bits washing bits in the bathroom. Location is ideal and very central, I am keen to go back toski during the winter season and I would definitely be staying at Marriott grand. Lake Tahoe in general was lovely although I was disappointed at the lack of access to beach areas around the lake, they are either private or owned by the hotels.
