To be honest, we only dropped by for a look on the way to the Crystal Bay Club. But still feel compelled to warn our fellow Tripadvisor desciples of this 'tourist trap'. The only explanations for their still getting bookings (and $$) have to be overseas tour groups and buget minded skiers. Mid day on a Sat - parking lot... More

It sad to see where this once proud hotel has ended up. I stayed there on a recent ski trip. I wasn't expecting much, just wanted a hot tub, a hot shower and a nice bed. Only got one out of three, the hot shower. The casino is gone, all gaming tables removed. How does a casino not money? They... More

we needed a layover for the next day ski venture and found this at a low price compared to most others. but we were in for a surprise... the room was spacious and neat. free parking.. close to king beach/food joints. would recommend this one... More

I've been in this hotel once before, and the only reason I made another reservation for visiting this hotel is because of its good location, close to several ski resorts. But this time due to my schedule conflict, I had to delay my visit date, so I made a call to this hotel and asked for a date change. What... More

The Calneva Resort has alot of history and a beautiful location. We have stayed there before when it was functional and it was GREAT! It is not a spa or a casino (there are maybe a dozen slot machines and one massage therapist) I learned from the locals that it is now owned by the bank and they are looking... More

The Cal-Neva is living off of an old reputation. The "resort" has a long history, once being owned by Frank Sinatra and hosting President Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, amount others. But it looks like it hasn't been updated since President Kennedy stayed there. It has great potential, as the location is FABULOUS, and the pool in 2 states is neat... More

It all depends on the floor! We got a promotional deal that allowed us to stay 2 nights for the price of one. Although we go to North Lake Tahoe quite frequently, we'd never stayed at the Cal-Neva. I'd heard it's quite dated, and we have another hotel we really like (FireLite Lodge). We decided that, for $99, we can... More

Beware the Cal-Neva…it is no longer a “resort” and operates as a poorly managed run-down hotel. Upon arriving at the hotel, one immediately notices the boarded up windows in front and trash on the steps. The entry canopy is torn and ripped. Once inside the hotel the guest is greeted by a cavernous lobby filled with furniture that seems like... More

The only reason to stay at this place is because of the lack of reasonably priced, quality accommodations in North Shore Tahoe. The place is totally run down and the staff is very unfriendly. After our stay over the New Years holiday, it's safe to say we will never stay here again and would not recommend it to anyone. More
