Thought I would try the Horizon again -it's been a few years since i stayed there. My first hint should have been when no one was answering the phone for reservations. As mentioned in other reviews, they removed all the gaming tables until the new owner get his table license. The casino was a empty. The few people in the... more

First of all, the hotel is situated in a stunning location by Lake Tahoe, in the town by rather tacky tourist shops, a handful of restaurants and other casinos. The hotel is huge, and a paradise for casino lovers, with lots of fruit machines of all kinds! However, for a family it isn't really that suitable. The rooms are all... more

Oh my, what a depressing show the Cabaret was. I mean, for $25 I was not expecting Las Vegas glitz and glamour. However, the 90 minute show was about 75 minutes of the emcee trying to buy time and be funny - it got old real quick. The guys in the show were okay - the one that does Liza... more

Years past, My wife and I would go on vacation in South Lake Tahoe and walk all the casinos. Sad to say, this time (July 2009) there were no table games, and very little slots, except in pods scattered around a empty floor. There were no more than 8 customers in the casino, and more employees just setting around. Half... more

This was the WORST place to stay AND too expensive for what we got! The room had actual black mold at the top of the wall, urine around the toilet (as well as hair-ughh),very worn down place. As for casino--there IS no casino to speak of. A handful of slots and that was all--no tables. Someone told us the new... more

All the reviews say this show is back by popular demand, but in our opinion it should have stayed closed. The emcee, "Gypsy", is funny at first, but gets old really fast. Gypsy fills in between the female impersonator acts. His entire bit was asking audience members where they were from and what they did. Then he would try to... more

We stayed on a leisure trip with our two kids, and all I have to say is NEVER AGAIN! It was not worth the ridiculous rates and inconveniences. We checked in and walked through the walkway, which had a beautiful view of the pool area (very nice covered in snow), and that was where our good impressions stopped. The elevator... more

I stayed at the Horizon with a group in January. After reading previous reviews I was not sure, if the hotel had gone downhill since may previous stay about 6 years ago, but in the end was pleasantly surprised. The hotel is older than some, but that is reflected in the price of the rooms, and as long as you... more

The Horizon is an older property and is a bit shop-worn around the edges, but more than adequate. The week-day rate was outstanding, and the staff was very efficient and helpful. It's not a "luxury" hotel by any means, but our room was spacious and clean with a spectacular view of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding mountains. Pool closed for... more
