You should come here just for this hostel! It is certainly up there in my best hostels list. Clean, friendly, cosy, welcoming, you name it, it is it. I stayed in a female room which had two single beds, and a double bed with a single bunk on top. The room has its own bathroom and a wardrobe area for... More

We decided to stay here based on Trip Advisor reviews, and we were not disappointed. Cleanest hostel we've stayed at, the nicest staff we've encountered, and the least $$ we've ever paid for a private room (w/ private bath!) at a hostel. Devon and Syd each made us feel welcome and at ease. The room, grounds, and common areas were... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for about 5 weeks this winter. Andrew, Christine, Devon & Syd were so accommodating and became like friends. We stayed in the private room & dorms and they were incredibly clean and so cosy. We made so many friends here and have many amazing memories from our time in Kings Beach. The location of... More

We used this hostel as a base to ski at Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley. This hostel is clean. We stayed in a queen room with private bath. The furnishings are simple but tasteful. We used the kitchen and common areas to prepare meals and enjoyed talking with the younger crowd. (We are in our 50s so we were the... More

This maginificent little gem, on the edge of town, is everything one could want around this beautiful body of water. Whether you're off hiking, wandering or running the woods above the lake, off for a stroll on the beach, or walking over the shops and restaurants, this is a great base for your adventures. The price is more than fair... More

I stayed in this hostel for a couple of days and found it to be a very relaxing place. Very close to the beach of Lake Tahoe and also right in the village of Kings Beach and next to a busstop. It made everything very easy, like going kayaking on the Lake, do some little shopping or travel to nearby... More

Hostel Tahoe attracts friendly and interesting people from all over the world, and the rooms and the common areas are exceptionally clean and well-kept. Located just a 3-4 minute walk from the lake, the facilities are maintained in an environmentally conscious manner. The hostel decor is pleasantly minimalistic with endearing artwork, which was also very refreshing.

is the Hostel Tahoe. CLEAN and the best deal for the area. Devon, our hostess, was so sweet and accommodating. We had a private room with a sparkling clean bathroom and the water pressure was to die for. Outstanding in everyway. JR
