Top First Ride Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was great. Room's clean staff was amazing."

Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Heavenly Village Area

8/10 Good

"Very clean room and all appliances work well. Parking is okay just wish the other parking was paved and not dirt."

Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South

8/10 Good

"Great location, we had a suite room and it was awesome full kitchen. Was told valet only parking available off site was our only issue with this location. They really busy most of the time. Didn’t understand how some people had a place to park on property? Bar area very busy in evenings. Had a great outside area with gas grills available. Overall very happy with this place and would suggest it to others."

The Americana Village

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay! The warm welcome, family vibe, rooms equipped with everything needed made it a great experience and we will definitely be back. Our new South Lake Tahoe getaway for sure with its walking distance to all the shops and casinos."

Basecamp South Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"Great getaway place for the weekend!"

Harrah's Lake Tahoe Hotel & Casino – A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good

"Nice"

HiMark

8/10 Good

"Everything was pretty great. Nice room with very comfortable bed. The room was very dark during sleep. Which is great. Most hotels have microwave,smoke detector,lights from hallways. This room had darkening drapes and to me, it makes it a much better sleep. The only issue i would say is the lack of a security number for contact. Apparently it is on the office door when the office is closed, but the number should be in the rooms."

Heavenly Valley Lodge

8/10 Good

"Loved the kitchenette and the room decor. Able to walk to a few restaurants and Whole Foods. For the price, it was a good deal and away from the casinos."

Hotel Azure

8/10 Good

"Fun little stay"
