Caesars Entertainment has plans to completely transform Harveys Lake Tahoe, remaking the legacy hotel and casino into a luxury destination through a $160 million renovation and rebranding.
Harveys Lake Tahoe originally opened in 1944 as a family-owned and -operated casino on the south shore. In 1963, the casino expanded to a high-rise hotel. Now, Caesars Entertainment is in the midst of plans to renovate the hotel-casino, and on Wednesday, the company unveiled plans to rebrand the property into Caesars Republic Lake Tahoe Hotel and Casino — part of a new branch of the Caesars brand that launched last year in Scottsdale, Arizona.
“This transformation honors the storied history of Harveys while introducing modern amenities and elevated experiences that will redefine luxury in Lake Tahoe. We look forward to welcoming guests to a resort that blends the best of our past with an exciting vision for the future,” Karie Hall, senior vice president and general manager of Harrah’s and Caesars Republic Lake Tahoe, said in a statement.
