General Information
More photos
What to expect: More subdued than some of its mega-casino hotel neighbors, the Horizon attracts leisure travelers who appreciate value and a resort on a smaller scale. The low-key lobby with its marble floors, mirrored walls, and large photos of Lake Tahoe is frequented by families headed for the large pool or video arcade, as well as celebrating couples.
Amenity highlights: The Horizon's self-contained eight-screen movie theater complex (fee charged), complete with a refreshment stand, shows current releases daily, with bargain matinees. For those pursuing real-life romance, the hotel's wedding planners can coordinate nuptials at the on-site chapel or elsewhere around the lake. Meeting and reception space measures 13,000 square feet. Recreational amenities include a large freeform pool and three spa tubs.
Insider tip: This Nevada hotel, formerly known as the Sahara, was once Elvis Presley's regular Tahoe hangout. The King's former showroom now houses the hotel's movie theater.
