We stayed at this hotel during our visit to Yosemite. This hotel is at a great location from Yosemite National Park. Just to let everyone be aware that the main national part is about 90 minutes drive but it will easily take one about 2 1/2 hrs since there are a lot of scenic spots on the way. The main... More

Oakhurst is probably the closest town to Yosemite National Park and the better place to stay if you're not camping. This hotel has a weird layout as there are separate buildings on each level of a very steep hill! So I suggest if you intend to use the indoor pool to ask for a room near it. The rooms were... More

Staying in the Yosemite National Park itself seems to be very expensive if you don't want to go camping. Oakhurst is a good 30 mins drive to the southern entrance of the Park but we didn't really come across anywhere closer, so this town seems to be the best option. Front desk staff not exactly the friendliest but we arrived... More

This hotel is built on 5 levels up a hill with separate buildings on each level. The grounds are beautifully landscaped. The lobby is also beautiful with a floor to ceiling field stone fireplace. There are no negatives with this hotel. Our room was on level 4 with a sliding glass door and balcony overlooking the town. Everything in the... More

We stayed here for one night en route to Yosemite. The hotel is situated in a lovely setting within the quaint town of Oakhurst. Check in was good, the lady was very friendly. Our room was huge, with two king size beds. It was very clean and well maintained, although the decor was classic which suited the surrounding area. We... More

The rooms are nice enough for the price you pay. The grounds are really nice with picnic tables and nice landscaping. There is a nice indoor pool with a hot tub, but there was a giant squirrel jumping around in there that was a bit disconcerting. The place is not new, but it was probably a top notch motel in...

It is an extremely quiet atmosphere. The theme is adorable. The indoor pool was nice and the breakfast was great. If you are traveling with kids ask for first floor. We were not in our room but for 20 minutes and got a call about the noise and this was around 7 at night. First time that has ever happened... More

We were only here one night and it was OK in a motelish sort of way. We were upstairs on the corner of the building. It was relatively quiet and we didn't need the airconditioning or heat. We had two windows that opened, one in the main room and another in the bath. One of the weakest hairdryers I have... More

Had a very nice stay at this hotel. Loved the old landscaping, the Yosemite murals and the view. The restaurant was excellent. The service was really above and beyond. Did not want to leave. Very good access to the park as well. Most importantly this hotel is pet friendly!!!! Hope to go back soon.
