Cut to the chase, here's my take

This place is a gem! Great communal areas with a cozy vibe, perfect for hanging out after a day of exploring. Rooms are spacious and clean, with superb amenities, including a lovely bathroom and comfortable beds. The atmosphere is cute, and it's conveniently located near dining options and outdoor activities. Definitely coming back!

Big great value hotel with a marvellous location not far from all the restaurants as well as premises. Spacious and well-stocked room. An exceptionally comfortable bed and a clean bathroom. Its outstanding service. Nice pool. What an excellent stay, no reason to complain...

this was a great location near to the main streets and the lake. furthermore, very close to the snow summit ski slopes.

Quirky steampunk decor

We had such a wonderful time sledding in the backyard and the kids loved it! The grounds were beautiful with a lovely garden area to relax in, and we had a blast with the free shuttle around town. The only downside was that the unit got a bit warm during the day, but the provided fan helped a lot 🎉

The hotel had a lovely atmosphere, with friendly staff and clean, cozy rooms. A lack of air conditioning made the summer heat quite uncomfortable, especially on the second floor. The amenities were decent, though the noise from outside was bothersome at night.

The staff was very friendly, especially a clerk named Sue who made our stay special with free firewood and some treats. Make sure to check if they are still offering any promotions during your visit.

good location but needs attention to detail

The check-in process was efficient, great to settle in quickly. The room had a cozy vibe.

It was easy to find but the bathroom cleanliness could be improved.

I enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and unique decor. The communal kitchen was a huge plus for cooking meals. The outdoor fire pits were perfect. The location is close to restaurants and activities. I had a great stay overall 🌟

This large hotel is cozy and split into several buildings, providing an intimate feel. The boutique-style rooms were spacious and showcased quirky decor, while the communal areas, including a full kitchen and lounge with a pool table, were enjoyable for families. The outdoor fire pits added a good touch for relaxation. Noise from adjacent rooms can be an issue for light sleepers, and I experienced occasional delays with staff availability during busy periods.

This place suits me perfectly! I love the free wi-fi, game room, and tv. On my first stay, the staff helped me with heavy baggage, which I appreciated. I can't wait to return next year!

We had a blast at this cozy spot! From the quirky steampunk vibe to the full kitchen for cooking meals, it. Plus, the fire pits outside were perfect for chilling after a day of skiing. The unique decor caught our eye constantly! Can't wait to come back.

Charming, cozy, charming

I had the best time escaping the city chaos to this charming retreat! The cozy lounge with a communal kitchen, and we loved roasting s'mores by the outdoor fire pits. Plus, the pet-friendly vibe really let us enjoy every moment together, even with our fur baby tagging along!

100% recommend ❤️🐾

I found Sessions Retreat to be a cozy getaway with a lot of potential. The location couldn't be beat, just a quick drive from everything Big Bear has to offer. The common area downstairs is great for families. I really enjoyed the fire pits outside. It was perfect for making s'mores with the family. The room we stayed in was warm, comfortable, and clean. The beds were super cozy. I faced some issues. The bathroom in our room felt cramped with very little space to move around. The heater frequently went out, frustrating during the night. There were also some internet problems, and I could hear everything happening in the neighboring rooms, which disrupted my sleep. Despite these issues, I appreciated the friendly staff who were always helpful. I'd suggest some soundproofing improvements for the rooms to enhance the overall experience.

I adored the unique decor throughout Sessions Retreat & Hotel with a cozy atmosphere. The accessible design made it easy for seniors like myself to navigate. Plus, the communal areas were inviting and well-maintained.

More staff during peak hours would be helpful.
