Top Big Bear Discovery Center Hotel Reviews

Snow Lake Lodge

8/10 Good

"There were not enough things for cooking in the kitchen. Our unit did not have enough plates, so we have to wash dishes anytime we needed. But overall was very pleasant place to stay."

Big Bear Frontier

10/10 Excellent

"We chose this hotel for the location. And it did not disappoint. We walked to the village, the marina to rent a kayak, alpine slides and several restaurants. We knew ahead of time about the construction and the pool being closed. So I did not account those things into my review. We stayed in the hotel portion with a queen bed. It was clean and comfortable. Although we didn’t use them, I liked the option of the fridge and microwave in the room. We did hear quite a bit through the doors/walls, but mostly outside of quiet hours (they do provide earplugs!) And we utilized white noise. The staff in the office were welcoming and very helpful. We look forward to coming back next summer to see the completed upgrades."

Holiday Inn Resort The Lodge At Big Bear Lake by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room didn’t have air conditioning. The hotel gave us a fan to try and keep the room cooled off. Our room was on the third floor. The staff was wonderful and they went out of their way to accommodate us. The location was great."

Hotel Marina Riviera

8/10 Good

"Everything was great! Friendly staff, Beautiful location. Great view. The restaurant was great. Walking distance to the Village. Short drive to everything else. Only problem was our AC unit started leaking onto the floor. They were very apologetic and tried to fix it right away but the problem did continue until we left. They did give us a discount for the inconvenience. Besides that I highly recommend this hotel! We will return!"

Fireside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great in accommodating my request to stay an extra night. AC was great, heat was great, fridge and TV also great. I did not use internet, (I did not intend to) was a nice pleasant escape. Most things I was interested in were within walking distance. Pool was clean and deep, most places don't have deep pools anymore. SPECIAL call out to the guy who checked me in, I did not get his name. The property does need some TLC, and cleanup, but nothing which would prevent me from visiting again, probably soon."
