Rented a suite at Harvey’s. Got placed on the lowest floor possible. They stated the higher floors were for people with Silver or Platinum Card Status. I paid the same price. No room service or Valet parking available. Not told that prior to arrival. Most restaurants close by 10pm. The pool was open and awesome as usual. They are practicing good… Read more

No room service or Valet parking available. Not told that prior to arrival. Most restaurants close by 10pm. The pool was open and awesome as usual. They are practicing good safety protocols. Be ready to bring your mask. They do have some at check in if needed. Do not expect to win big, very little activity on the floors. The lake is beautiful. Little bit of snow right now. Road conditions good. Read less

Just returned from a 4-night stay at Harveys Lake Tahoe. This visit was our first glimpse at the guest rooms after completion of their renovation project. We've been long-time Harveys guest, our first visit occurring in something like 2004. The standard guest rooms had become tired and worn, long due for an update. Given the challenges with which Caesars has been confronted, we anticipated a modest warm-over of amenities. Upon opening the door to our guest room, we were greeted by all new furnishings and a room full of rich, warm tones. And the bathroom features were impeccably attractive and welcoming. When you combine these improvements with what have always been some of the best views of Lake Tahoe (it's definitely worth paying up for a room above the "treeline"!), I'd vote Harvey's as having the best accommodations available in South Lake Tahoe! COVID-19 adjustments pose some moderate inconveniences: In particular, removal of coffee makers from the room meant vying at times with long lines at Starbucks (not to mention having a quick cup within easy grasp upon first waking). I wish Harveys would provide single-cup Keurig makers, like many other hotels. These are easily wiped down and sanitized by housekeeping, like most any other surface. I wouldn't even object to a modest charge for the coffee pods (or needing to purchase them at the sundry store). Likewise, I understand no longer providing bottled water in the guestrooms, but complimentary water should be available on request at the reception desk. (I see no more health risk in a agent handing me a bottle than receiving the same from a waitress or bartender.) On the dining front, I'll keep my comments cursory. Generally speaking, we find that food quality has declined a bit over the last couple of years. The fare is still satisfactory, but it's been awhile since we've enjoyed an exceptional meal. Frankly, Harvey's/Harrah's could stand an independent review of it's dining franchises, as well as those of its lessors for ideas on how to upscale the quality of their menus without breaking the budget. It's been a couple of years since we've last indulged in the Spa at Harrah's, so I'm not prepared to comment on those facilities, post COVID-19. I'll just say that our past spa visits have proved among the most satisfying that we've enjoyed at any standard hotel property. Facilities are a bit on the basic side for a spa, but are well managed and have yielded some wonderfully relaxing breaks. But where the spa particularly shines is the skill and finesse of their massage staff. My wife and I have been delightfully rejuvenated after an 80-minute session. (I opt for a citrus-spice salt scrub and deep tissue massage.) A stay at Harvey's, surrounded year-round by drop gorgeous beauty, is a recipe for a wonderful getaway. Read less

Not a good hotel! The Wifi was slow, and you can only have 2 devices PER 24 HOURS!!! You can't even change devices with the Wi-Fi. Using the free plan, you only get 1.5 Mbps. The hotel had taken a lot of measures to stop the spread of COVID-19. The worst thing they did is that they removed the mini fridge, which is essential in a hotel room.… Read more

The hotel had taken a lot of measures to stop the spread of COVID-19. The worst thing they did is that they removed the mini fridge, which is essential in a hotel room. Although they sanitized other parts of the room, the hotel is still bad. The only good thing that I can tell is its location. It's near Lake Tahoe, and has a lot of things to do within walking distance. Read less

My wife and I decided to take a quick trip to Lake Tahoe so we drove up from Las Vegas. Not knowing the hotels in Lake Tahoe, we decided to stay at Harvey's and boy did we make the right choice. When we first arrived, they had put into place Covid protocols which made us feel extremely safe without disrupting the experience. That story continued throughout our entire stay at the property. We had arrived very late at night so weren't sure what would be our view. When we woke up in the morning we realized that we had a stunning view over the lake. It was probably one of the best views we have ever had in a hotel. It made it extremely difficult to get up to see the sights around Tahoe but we eventually pulled ourselves away. The other thing that set Harvey's apart was the service. All of the employees at Harveys went out of our way to make us feel welcome. If you are visiting Tahoe, stay at Harvey's. And make sure you get a view of Lake Tahoe. Read less
