“Excellent view and area but a little disappointed with the hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 13, 2012

The room was basic but cozy. It was hard to get the right temp on the thermostat, either we were freezing or super hot so did not sleep well the night we there. The views were breathtaking and there was deer all around which was awesome. The things that were disappointing to me is that we only stayed one night and we had planned to purchase a couple of souvenirs from the gift shop that were of importance to us. We were told the gift shop was closed for inventory but maybe later that night. Later that night still closed but we were told to come back first thing in the am. We specifically wait to leave until the gift shop would be open in the am only to find out that nope.. its still closed another day. We were then told we could purchase what we wanted on the internet. Went to the internet site - clicked shop gift shop and nothing comes out but a description of the gift shop. You cannot purchase anything online. Also, did not like the fact that their lighting is terrible for it being so dark and the only place that you can eat. We could not see in front of us to get from the hotel building to the lodge. Cells do not work up there and if you need to use the phone not only are you paying the long distance rate but you are paying their 20 percent up charge. The food was good, but way to expensive and not a lot of normal food options. I think that if you have no choice on where you are going to eat there should be more options then just options you would find in a high class restaurant. I cant imagine what the cost would be for a family with children. All in all, I would not stay here again. I would stay down the mountain and come up for the day. The area is beautiful.

“Very nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

We unfortunatly stayed only one night and arrived very late, after dark from Las Vegas. The staff was great at checkin and we needed more info. They helped us very quickly and profesionaly. The rooms are big and what we saw the next morning has a great view. I will recomend people stay more than one night. I was disapointed not to be able to stay longer and explorer the area more.

Room Tip: Can't realy help. The hotel looks great and rooms are nice and big.

“Basic...but perfect for a cold night!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

We stayed at Wuksachi lodge for one night in December 2012, pretty much on a whim.

The rooms are pretty basic, but have everything you need (including good, high speed internet, which I did not expect).

The accommodation is spread across three lodge buildings that are set into the national park forest. It really is a lovely setting, and the sunset over the mountains (which comes early) is quite stunning.

Although the rooms are just OK, the highlight of Wuksachi is the main lodge building with its restaurant, bar and fireplace. The restaurant took us by surprise - excellent meals and very good service. The fireplace was perfect for a pre-dinner bottle of wine.

Don't go expecting a 5 start hotel, but you can book in at Wuksachi confident of a very pleasant stay in Sequoia.

“Nice hotel in a great loaction”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012

as one of the only hotels within the national park you're pretty stuck for hotels to stay in. this hotel though is very nice and the setting is amazing. wild deer walk around in the grounds and a perfect starry night can be witnessed after dark. the beds are comfy and the bathrooms clean and well lit. the staff are amazing and helped us through a mix up caused by our travel agents.

the only down side to this hotel is the lack of eateries, the only choice you really have is the hotel restaurant, which, as with any hotel restaurant is a little highly priced, but delicious.

“Good base from which to explore Sequoia”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 3, 2012

Only stayed the one night whilst travelling around America. Friendly staff and very busy restaurant. The front desk took our booking for dinner but did not inform the restaurant. However, the restaurant staff (who were excellent) kindly fitted us in although several others were still waiting for a table. The rooms were very basic and disappointing. Probably the worse room we stayed in during our 4 week holiday but not many other options in the area.
