The location and views are of course spectacular, but at these rates the room should at least be average and this was not.

The lobby is welcoming and the little suites are cute. The staff were friendly and provided a map to navigate the property. There were no bears on site.

10/10 Exceptional

Great place with stunning views and wonderful hospitality. From the moment we checked in (thanks to Jonathan) to the restaurant staff (especially Mr. DJ), everyone was incredibly patient and friendly. Even though we came hoping to see snow and didn’t get any, the experience was still amazing because of the people. Truly made our stay memorable.

The lodge is right in the heart of Yosemite and an easy stroll to amazing waterfalls. The setting is nothing short of breathtaking The staff was lovely too. But the room itself was not clean or comfortable. It was stuffy, the mattress was old, the cleaning crew left garbage from the previous guest and the bathroom was a little icky. It’s a shame because this place could be an absolute treasure with a big of TLC.

Excellent location, just 15 minutes walk to lower Yosemite Falls. 3 different places to eat and a Starbucks on premise. Rooms are clean and basic. Bed was comfortable. Very friendly staff. Yosemite Valley free shuttle has a stop here.

Clean and functional if a little basic. But you are not paying for anything fancy, the location is stunning and the facilities in terms of food options are good…the heating systems in the room are old and rather noisy but overall a fantastic stay…

The location is absolutely perfect! You are in the heart of Yosemite Valley with easy access to shuttles. We are a bit disappointed with the restaurant, the prices were very high, but the quality was just OK. The staff were great, always friendly and helpful. Our room was adequate, but not as clean as we would have liked. There were cobwebs, hairs in the bathtub and shower and makeup on the bathroom counter. They sent someone to clean it up very quickly. All in all great location and adequate lodging, on the fence if I would go back.

6/10 Good

Only positive is the location. Rooms are very dated, they do not have thermostats, just extra blankets and portable heaters. No amenities - no breakfast, no microwave, no indoor pool or hot tub. Very expensive considering. Did appreciate outdoor tours there, especially with your guide Deano.

Very cozy cottage like stay. Would recommend for people looking for a stay in the park there a fridge but no microwave. If you need one you can use a communal one in the front desk building.
