3-Star Hotels in Big Bear Lake

The check in was smooth, although there was only one representative for the front desk so she had to juggle us and the phones but she was very friendly and welcoming, she gave us a great recommendation for eating which was Oakside, the room was clean, we stayed for 3 nights and the amenities were provided as needed without any issues. It was a great stay and we look forward to staying here again!

I’ve been visiting Big Bear for many years but have always rented houses with friends. When my husband and I decided to go up just the two of us, we took a chance on booking a hotel room for the first time. We expected the accommodations to be somewhat older because much of Big Bear is that way, but our room exceeded our expectations. Our Standard King room with fireplace was spacious, extremely clean, well equipped (microwave, mini fridge, silverware, coffee maker and mugs), and all for a reasonable price. We will be coming here any time we need just a room instead of renting a house.

We arrived on Friday afternoon. The place was beautiful and nostalgic. We checked in and the room was nice... we left and returned that evening to find out that we had no heat. I asked why the Forster heating wasn’t working because it was 41degrees, All I git was a blanket and a floor heater. The maintenance guy stated”Itsnot just a switch I can turn on and I don’t know what to do. My wife had major surgery years ago and her spleen was taken. Therefore she gets cold easy. So we cuddled up and for the next few hours, there were people upstairs running back and forth shaking the entire floor. I called the front desk many times up to 3am to get these people to stop with no avail.. We stayed one night and with no sleep, I was so frustrated that when we checked out, I wanted to be compensated for my room. I was told that they couldn’t do anything because I booked the room through you guys.. Amazing

Good! I like it!

I happily discovered the Session Retreat Hotel based on a friend’s recommendation for a unique and stylish stay in Big Bear. The exterior was charming, but upon entering the room and communal spaces, the decor and style were beyond expectations – a blend of retro and space-age, reminiscent of a captivating museum. The proximity to the ski resort and downtown village made it convenient for play, dining and nightlife. We were thrilled to explore the innovative concept of the new Bar, the Flatlander on the property. This boutique property impressed us at every turn, and we felt like we had uncovered a hidden gem before it becomes the next big thing.

The perfect experience was that the house was clean and quiet or the lake view room opened the curtains and you can see that the Big Bear Lake exceeded my expectations. The facilities are all full of kitchen utensils and everything. The beds are very comfortable and the scenery is beautiful. Want to settle in this place The parking place was at least enough when I went (March) and the location was easy to find. The three of us went out to play and the price was good. There were many places to eat around.

Great location. It’s very close to grocery stores, The Village,and attractions. We also went to The Barn Bowling Alley and Swim Beach/Ski Beach, and everything was close by. I was pleasantly surprised with the room. It’s very roomy and has a rustic modern feel. It was clean and we loved the full kitchen. Our family of four enjoyed our stay. We would definitely book here again. The pool was a perfect temp. We come to big bear every summer in August. We find most places don’t have AC. This place provided fans and we brought an extra from house. Each room also has a ceiling fan. The place cools down really quick. All the staff were so nice. I called ahead and asked for a first floor due to a recent knee injury. They were able to accommodate. The bathroom showers even had rails in the shower which was a bonus.

We were visiting Big Bear Lake in the San Bernardino mountains and intended to explore the area the next day. We booked a room at the Marina Riviera right on the Lake and reached the hotel at about 3:15 p.m. Checking in was easy. The room was comfortable, with a nice view of the lake from the balcony. Unfortunately, our rental car had developed a problem just as we reached the hotel parking lot. A lot of time was spent seeking help. Finally, the rental car company said they would give us a replacement vehicle, but only at their nearest counter at the Ontario International Airport some 60 miles away. It was already dark, so we decided to give up the Marina Riviera room and seek a hotel near the car rental location. While we were thinking about the forfeited rent and the missed opportunity to tour the Big Bear Lake area, we ran into Ana Arriaga, the hotel receptionist. As we told her our story, we mentioned that the room rent had already been paid, but we would not stay the night there. Immediately, Ana not only understood our situation and empathized with us, but also volunteered to talk to the Manager, Raymond Landa. Within minutes, Raymond authorized Ana to refund our rent. She told us the news and credited our credit card with the full rental amount right away. So, while we did not get to use a well-furnished room lakeside all night, we appreciated the kindness and courtesy of Ana and Raymond. On the next trip to the Bear Lake area, we will stay at the Marina Riviera and recommend it to our friends wanting to visit the region.
