This hotel was one of the greatest surprises of our road trip, we booked it very last minute mainly due to the very interesting price and we got an incredible room/small apartment, with bath robes, separate dining/living and bedroom, super comfy beds in a warm and nice atmosphere where everything was spotlessly clean. It was very well located to explore the incredible surroundings of Lake Tahoe and it suited our family of 4 very well. The café next to the hotel had also incredible nachos that they would also bring to the room! All in all we enjoyed it very much.

The hotel is right on the ocean front and even if you don't get an ocean-facing room, it's easy to walk out to the pool or the look-out point for a fantastic view of the sunset. A simple complimentary breakfast is provided. It wasn't so bad as there were some hot items. There's also a restaurant and bar in the next building so it's easy to get dinner if you don't feel like driving out for dinner. The reception staff were efficient. The room was large.

This is a beautiful hotel! The rooms were exceptionally clean and the room we got allocated was really large with a lovely outdoor seating area in the front. You couldn't get closer to the beach, the parking was very handy too. The bar is also in the perfect spot for an evening drink with the fire pits too

Queen Mary has the most unforgettable atmosphere, beautiful in all ways. The staff was very very nice, the food very good. Fantastic coming back to the ship in the evening, after a busy day, driving around on the highways in Los Angeles. Thank you very much!

Loved the quirkiness, character and history of Madonna Inn. Your staff were happy to assist with our many photos we wanted to take. Also one of your staff members talked to us about the history of the Inn which was si fascinating.

The Welks was great, we would happily stay there again. We enjoyed the pools, slides and playgrounds. Our room was large enough to spread out and enjoy ourselves. The in room deck could be cleaner but everything else was good.

We loved the vibe of this place. Beautifully designed and decorated. Not your usual run of the mill place by any means. Peaceful, classy place. Would highly recommend.
