Top Central Valley Hotel Reviews

Hotel Piccadilly

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was good, rooms were a little outdated, the bed was very stiff and the pillows were like bricks. A lot if doors slamming at night. I know it's hard to not let them slam but at least the patrons could slow down the closing of them."

Piccadilly Inn Airport

Hilton Vacation Club Tahoe Seasons Lake Tahoe

8/10 Good

"Suite was cleaned and well maintained. Fireplace was a good feature. Staff was very friendly. Parking was by valet only, which was not my favorite feature. We would definitely stay again."

Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South

8/10 Good

"Great family stay right on the water Pros: The pool is fun, with an indoor/outdoor swim-through tunnel, plus a sauna and hot tubs. The kitchenette is well stocked, and there are grills for guests. The waterfront location is walkable to the strip. Next door there's a village with food, shops, and kayak and boat rentals. They decorated our room for our birthdays, and the on-site restaurant has good food. Cons: Parking is valet only, so there are tips every time you move your car. There's no daily housekeeping, so you have to call for towels or trash. Restaurant prices are high, and rooms are basic rather than luxurious."
