Surrounded by casinos and ski resorts, the Embassy Suites Hotel Lake Tahoe Resort is conveniently close to the area's attractions. The Heavenly Ski Resort's Gondola is just 200 yards away. A variety of shops and restaurants are outside the hotel, but guests can take the shuttle service to explore other areas. The nine-story all-suites hotel offers three skylight atriums to lend it an airy and spacious atmosphere. The lobby is contemporary and features a pond and a well-kept garden atrium. The 400 suites have separate living rooms with sofa beds to provide extra accommodations for guests. The bedrooms and living rooms each have their own television and telephone with voice mail. High-speed Internet access is available, but a fee is charged. All suites include coffeemakers, refrigerators, microwaves, and wet bars. Guests can relax in the hotel's indoor pool or work up a sweat in the fitness center. A hot tub is also available but it only seats eight. The hotel is quiet, as it has no casino on site. However, the walls are thin, so noise from other rooms does travel. Overall, for its quiet atmosphere and convenient location, the Embassy Suites Hotel Lake Tahoe Resort is a worthwhile stay.
