Kinda run down and old but I guess that's the charm. I had been here a bunch of times to gamble and have drinks for about 20 years but never stayed in a room. Room doesn't had AC, they're small, can get stuffy and only a large box fan to help move around air. Stayed here for a fair price. Place could use some upgrades like new double pane windows, new furniture and updated TV's.

Hotel is VERY dated. Not in a cool hipster kinda way. Lobby smelled like dusty cigarettes. Room is very very tiny. Absolutely no air conditioning. They do provide windows that open to let air in. Was told by front desk when asked about air conditioning. To open the windows and door. So if you want to stay cool in June don't come hete. We will have to keep the windows open all night. And listen to the cars outside.

We went a couple of times in our last trip. Breakfast was ok, the portions are big. Excellent service. For dinner we got the spaghetti special and was very good. Place it is big and not crowded. Place is clean but it smell like cigars.

The cabins were small and dirty, we also found a dirty pad in the bathroom and the toilet did not work. The bedframe was broken and a rust metal piece was sticking out from under it. Also, when we tried to call the front desk the phone was not working. The cabins claimed to be smoke free and pet free but the bed and room still smelt like smoke to the point where I had to go outside every so often to get some fresh air because of nausea. And the bed was covered in pet hair and a pee stain on the carpet. Please save your money and just rent a better resort because this was the worst experience I have had in a very long time. Good luck in your search!

Cottages are run down, no HOT water, gets Luke warm. The walls are paper thin & people on the other side kept us up ALL NIGHT. WORST NIGHT IN A HOTEL EVER

Old time Tahoe casino charm... in need of some updating but always clean. Huge potholes in parking lot are a bit of an annoyance... but otherwise a kitchy place.

DO NOT STAY in the cottages at this hotel! I don’t know if the hotel rooms are any better, but the pet friendly room they gave us was AWEFUL and GROSS! There was also a syringe with a broken needle on the shelf in the closet. After letting the water run in the sink for more than 10 minutes there was still no hot water so I didn’t even attempt to take a shower. The stairs to the cabin were half covered in heavy wet snow on one side and ice on the other. The best part, when my husband called the front desk to complain the first reaction by the woman at the front desk was a laugh, like it wasn’t the first time she heard the complaint.....though the laugh could have been partially due to the way he worded the complaint! The only reason I gave one star is because it wouldn’t let me post the review otherwise.

My son and I recently stayed here and we had an incredible stay. The hotel was rustic and charming just like I expected a Lake Tahoe hotel to be. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. This hotel hosts two restaurants but since I was traveling with a toddler we hung out mostly at Cafe Biltmore. The food was great and the service was impeccable. I even picked up some trinkets from the gift shop and the prices weren't through the roof! Updating some basic fixtures wouldn't hurt but I loved that the Biltmore kept in tune with the historical vibe of this classic hotel. The view from our balcony suite was breathtaking and the large balcony would be a great place to hang out in the summer. Even though we traveled during the winter my son still loved to run, play, and look out at the views on the balcony.

The Tahoe Biltmore hired some great staff lately. I was pleasantly surprised by unmatched hospitality I was given by the wonderful staff. Thea is especially awesome with her ability to handle delicate situations. Thanks so much Biltmore staff!

The Biltmore is definitely a throwback Hotel, don't expect anything fancy. We had a great time though and would definitely go back. I recommend taking the stairs as the elevator only worked half the time.
