The Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe

Passable

Liked: It is a beautiful hotel in a great location. The staff are incredible.
Disliked: I think my issue is with Ritz-Carlton in general. I think if you charge a minimum of $1200 a night for a room you shouldn't run the hotel like Ryan Air. Everything related to the stay should be included, not cost extra. It is absolutely maddening when you charge an extra $240 dollars to park over a two night stay. There is no other option. Coffee in the lobby, nope. But, if you want to buy some, $10 for drip. Do you want to sit in the nice center lobby? Too bad it is now just a restaurant with a bad overpriced menu. Yes it is a nice hotel, but always at Ritz Carlton's you have to be on the lookout for where they will get you next. I don't expect any changes, the policies don't come from that location they are set somewhere else. Corporate executives who feel they can squeeze every penny out of guests because of a classic brand that has become part of the American Lexicon. Too bad. And, I get it. Don't stay if you don't want to pay and be on edge the whole time. Hopefully I won't have to again. It's my pleasure.
