How we seed

Every seed was played through a full night: check-in, room, sound after dark, breakfast and the walk outside.

1. Qualify — Reno and Tahoe hotels with years of steady guest feedback, casino resorts included.
2. Play the night — room size, bed, blackout, corridor noise and the view, from public guest notes.
3. Seed — the order follows the stay; gaming floors earn nothing.
4. Rematch — entries are rechecked after renovations, new towers or rebrands.

Prices

Guide prices in USD are typical nightly rates for a standard double. They are not offers and change by date.

Independence

No hotel pays to appear, we take no commission, and gaming areas have no influence on the order.
