Top University of Nevada-Reno Hotel Reviews

Nugget Casino Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff were helpful when providing directions about the hotel. They were courteous and always maintained focus on our questions when providing answers. The only negative was the distance of the free parking to the Casino Tower, but the skyway walkway in the Second floor made it easier. If you have difficulty walking"

Silver Legacy Reno- A Caesars Rewards Destination

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice"

Eldorado Reno Hotel & Casino - A Caesars Rewards Destination

10/10 Excellent

Whitney Peak Hotel Reno, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The staff and valet were very helpful during check in & check out. My room was very spacious and comfortable, & the best part of my stay in Reno. There was either a night club or longe next door or part of the hotel that was very loud near the lobby, but thankfully my floor & room was very quiet!"

Ramada by Wyndham Reno Hotel and Casino

8/10 Good

"Not as bad as reviews say at all..."

WorldMark Reno

8/10 Good

"good all around close to all entertainment"

The Jesse Hotel & Bar

8/10 Good

"We love staying at The Jesse when we're on a long road trip. The bar and restaurant is a great amenity and the rooms are spacious - so nice when traveling with a dog and toddler. The only thing different on this stay vs other stays was that the room didn't feel as clean - the rug could use replacing and the corners were quite dusty. Otherwise, it was a good stay, we'll be back."
