Reno STRs must comply with city noise rules under RMC Chapter 8.12 with quiet hours from 10 PM to 7 AM. Operators are responsible for guest noise and can lose their permit for repeated violations.
Reno STRs are held to citywide noise standards under RMC Chapter 8.12, which sets quiet hours from 10 PM to 7 AM in residential zones and prohibits unreasonable noise at any time. STR ordinances typically require operators to post quiet hours inside the unit and provide a local 24/7 contact who can respond to complaints within a set period (often 60 minutes). Multiple substantiated noise complaints can trigger permit suspension or revocation. Outdoor amplified music is generally prohibited after 10 PM.
Noise citations: fines starting around $100, escalating for repeat offenses. Three substantiated complaints can trigger STR permit review.
