Less than 4 blocks from the ski Gondola at Heavenly.

All rooms at the hotel have an upscale style and generous amenities. They feature free cable on flat screen TVs, iPod docking stations and a coffee maker. Wi-Fi is free in all rooms and throughout the hotel.

Receptionist was awesome, gave us great details of things to do around and even gave us vouchers for the lakeside beach. I was also able to do a bbq outside without any problem.

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Checkin was quick, very friendly and perfect. The Hotel is located in the woods. It has a very nice lodge and woody design. Outsstanding design. Have a look at the Hotel website.... We loved it. The rooms are cosy nice and clean. Beds are comfortable we had a restful sleep. Room had a little fire place which was lovely and created a warm. I would definetly book it next time again when going to south lake tahoe. Checkout was as well very quick + good, but we didn't loved it becasuse we had to leave :-)

    Our cabin was perfect. Loved the gas fireplace, the lounge with comfy couch and chairs for relaxing after a day's skiing. The communal spa was fun and good for sore muscles. The kitchen facilities were really handy for making our own dinner on the nights we felt like it. The people were absolutely lovely. Location was good with nice restaurants nearby and easy to get to the lifts with the free shuttle bus stopping virtually outside our lodge.

    We are grateful for the time we spent at the Gondola Lodge. The fireplaces were such a great feature and the kids loved the jetted tub. It was conveniently located within walking distance to the village and the heavenly gondola, and quiet as well. John was quick to respond w maintenance questions and Jennifer was accommodating of our itinerary change request. I so appreciate her going above and beyond to help us, especially given it was a holiday time and her day off.

    Good location. Good looking but not thoroughly clean. No staff on site. Stayed for 2 nights, didn’t rly wanna spend my 3 days in Tahoe complaining about the place. You get what you pay for. Although I’ve stayed in lodges/inn that were as cheap but has great amenities and very clean, and felt safe. Vibe of the lodge could be way better if they wanted to.
