Got in late due to problems with other hotel. Very professional and very people friendly place. Room was excellent, with a very cool wood decor. Clean in the room, although hallways and parking areas were tight. Did not check out pool or spa or outdoor fire pits (which we saw), but they were there (unlike other resorts that advertise a pool and spa and they were empty). They offered us bikes and surfboards too for a morning jaunt. Would definitely stay here again if we go back to Tahoe.
The marketing and photos for this property make it out to be something it is not. This is a motel with upgraded rooms. The rooms are fine, clean and have nice beds. The bathrooms are very basic. We came here for our anniversary and we're disappointed (and departed early). The hotel is on a busy street and the hallways are a bit torn and tattered. It would be a fine place to sleep during a ski trip or if you plan to be out all day, but it's not an inviting environment to spend time in. The prices for mid-July were over $300 which feels very expensive for the quality of the property. Anything over $200/night here would feel quite high.
Me and my girlfriend stayed here for 2 night June 2017. We booked the motel (not a hotel )online and it looked very nice from the pictures etc but it looks nothing like the pictures just some fancy photoshop on there computer I say to make the rooms look better. Some people on here giving good reviews have no clue. They have to be friends etc of the hotel or not care above sleeping in a dirty old fashioned motel as this place is a dump when you compare it to other hotels in the area. On arrival we got giving one of there older rooms on the second floor. We walked out of reception and it took us ten minutes to find the room walking thru dark walkways and into a old dirty corridor with dirty ripped carpet. Opening the room door we were met by a bad smell of a room that the windows where not opened for weeks or something and a dirty top bed sheet and dirty carpet and light and plug sockets lose on the walls. We went straight to reception and asked for a different room. Receptionist was very helpful and gave us a diff room on ground floor. New room was a lot better but still not near the standard you would expect for money paid. ( new room was one of the so called newly renovated rooms) so do not be fooled by this excuse if they replay to this review. On the positive the girl at reception was very nice and the hotel internet is very good and fast. Very genuine review so please trust.
Thankfully only booked one night. Very loud, chaotic, the complete opposite of relaxing. The hotel has potential, but majoring in the minors. Also overpriced, the value is around $115-125 per night. Details: check in was a difficult, could not find our room and nobody to help. When we finally found our room, the key did not work. Told we had to pay for valet and the valet told us to park our own car. There were loud parties going on at night, I had to wear ear plugs to sleep. The complimentary coffee was decaf only. Just constant frustrations.
I actually purchased our 3 night stay on a Groupon!! I'm not sure where some of the reviews of this quaint hotel came into play, but I/we are thoroughly impressed with everything thus far (we're starting our 2nd night). The front office personnel were extremely pleasant and very helpful (I have never been to South Lake Tahoe). Our room has very modern/contemporary decor, brand new shower (walls, fixtures floor and door) same for the bathroom sink. The only thing that I felt was "dated" was the carpet...but seriously, how much traffic can hotel carpet stand up too?? The location is absolutely spot on, literally right across the street from Heavenly Village. There are shops for everyone & everything, with lots of choices for food and/or entertainment. Thus far, we've had breakfast here at Hotel Becket and it was very good, that's the only meal we've had on the property, so far. When/if we come back to SLT, we will definitely stay at Hotel Becket again!!
This place was a nice property, close to everything in South Lake/Stateline area. They had valet for the weekend due to high traffic, which was complimentary based on our room location. That was definitely convenient :) we will try and stay here again in the future
We travel with our two, well-behaved Border Collies 90% of the time, The Hotel Becket is extremely dog-friendly. We loved the location of the property, walking distance to grocery stores, restaurants, the lake and casinos. Had an energetic feel. Although the rooms are smaller, the newly remodeled décor fit our needs. Loved the grassy lounge area right outside of the 10 Crows restaurant, and the cocktails at the bar were delicious. Highly recommend and will be back again, and again.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel!! Paula at the front desk, and Robert at the front desk , also Clint they were the best!!! We stayed for 4 days , and it was wonderful. A really caring staff, And the ambience of the hotel was amazing. It doesn't look from the outside what the inside has to offer .
this hotel plain and simple was terrible. plan on going back to tahoe soon and will never stay here again or recommend any of our co workers or anyone else to stay here. there's too many people making noises and fist fightings going on in hallways and in parking lots. rooms were small and dirty. AC didn't work all the time and when it did made loud noises.
The vale guys was awesome, he was courteous and polite. Kids really enjoyed the pool. Hotel was really nice and pretty. The room was not what I expected. I reserved a Village Queen/Queen and got put in a Double/Double very uncomfortable.
