Truckee Donner Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at Truckee Donner Lodge for one night. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The room was large, clean and well appointed. The hotel is ideally located adjacent to Donner Lake State Park, which is interesting and worth a visit. The breakfast was fresh and nutritious. I would gladly stay at this hotel again when in this area."
