Tis is the closest to the south end of Yosemite Park, so very convenient. It is quaint, woodsy and safe. There is an excellent restaurant attached to it - plus an old-timey western style bar. Incredible short rib burger with everything on it and the server was a delight. The motel part is just standard, but fine. The old Wawona Hotel (within the park) is either getting torn down or renovated, so this is the only option. There IS a narrow-guage railway right next door that would be a fun activity for kids.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful resort hotel, it is quaint and the room has a beautiful setting with great mountain views very relaxing I highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Yosemite national Park it is just couple miles away from the entrance we will definitely stay there again!!!!

The place that goes wrong. Despite a great location next to the entrance to the Yosemite Park and a place which could be of interest, this is a complete rip off where nearly every thing went wrong. The shower room must be 50 years old, the beds are beyond noisy when you move, the breakfast is non existent. They even replaced two broken chairs on the balcony by one broken chair. And this is expensive as there is not enough competition. On a slightly positive side the restaurant is ok

Fun little place! Bar and restaurant were excellent! Bartender friendly and made us all excellent cocktails. He came and got us to be seated as we have dinner reservations when our resi time came up. Then he became our waiter! He pretty much did it all and did it all well! The room we were assigned (#31) was right next to said bar/restaurants' employee exit door. When we checked in I wondered about potential noise and was assured there would be none. Not quite true. Proximity was too close to after hours staff utilizing the door. I don't blame them as they probably didn't realize. Overall I felt the room was a bit pricey for what we got - too bad as it's actually overall a beautiful little place! Next time I'll be a bit choosier about what rooms I might be able to pick from. Continental complimentary breakfast was just ok. Filled the tummy with something anyway...

Here are the pros and cons Pros: Location to Yosemite's South entrance - 30 min/4 miles There is a restaurant on premises (but we didn't get to try it out, closed on Mondays) Get a room with a balcony- it is worth the view after a long day and your room will not be somewhere you will want to linger (see Cons below). There is a small pool that looked cute There is a very basic free breakfast- bagel, coffee, hard boiled egg, cereal, fruit cup. Cons: Our room #30, smelled like a diaper in a musty antique store. The odor hit us in the face every time we left and came back to the room Shower did not have enough pressure to rinse shampoo out of our hair Everything is just old, calling it "rustic" is a stretch. The carpeting makes you want to keep your socks on. It's slightly nicer than camping and their proximity to Yosemite is the only plus.
