Frommer's Review
On the edge of the state line, steps away from the Heavenly Gondola, this is the only major noncasino hotel on Tahoe's South Shore. It earns its keep by luring the upscale gambling crowd and the convention business with uncommonly large suites. The nine-story château-style hotel has a roofline pierced with a double layer of dormers; equally impressive are the three massive inner atriums featuring a collection of fine art, live plants, and a waterfall feature reminiscent of the Comstock Lode mining era. The two-room suites all have a separate living room with sofa bed, armchair, a well-lit dining/work table, a microwave, two TVs, a small refrigerator, and a wet bar. Complimentary breakfasts, cooked to order, are served in a garden atrium and a complimentary evening manager's reception is held from 4:30pm to 6:30pm daily. The resort's fine-dining restaurant, Echo, serves New American cuisine for lunch and dinner with large-screen TVs to view the latest sports activities. In the summer, all guests have access to a private beach and a multitude of outdoor recreational activities; and family skiers fill up the place in winter, partly because kids 18 and under stay free.
