Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe

Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent
"Location is great right on 50. Lots of parking for guests. Rooms have enough space for 4 adults to be comfortable and not crowded. Bathroom is big, 2 sinks, lots of counter space with open shelving below and on 1 wall, and there's an articulated makeup mirror on the other wall which is handy. Service personnel are friendly, pleasant and helpful in all things. Nice covered area at entrance for loading and unloading, plenty of luggage carts. Excellent walkability to other casinos and restaurants/shopping."
