Yosemite lodge stay
We loved everything about what Yosemite had to offer. The accommodation was in a great location and was very comfortable. There were a few maintenance issues but that didn’t impact our stay.

What can you say. You’re in Yosemite sitting on your balcony with amazing views in your face dark skies and stars with Huge El Cap down the road. Rooms are very worn and rustic but clean beds and towels. Worth it

Yosemite Valley Lodge
This is a great location in Yosemite Valley with easy access to trails, attractions, and food service. The Canyon Cafe, Starbucks, and Mountain Bar were directly across the road from our lodge. The Canyon Cafe was very disappointing. The food was cold or had been sitting under warmers for too long.

The place is needing a full refreshment. It was the most dirty and dusty from hundreds of places I've stood in the last 10 years. The restaurants are good but the room itself is in very bad shape. To be able to sleep in the park you have to get it and they know this. Very low concurrence in a concession resulting in low value for your money.

It was great to be right in the Valley. You can walk to trail heads & shuttle to the ones away from the valley. Beautiful location but property is very old & outdated. Staff at the check in all obviously hated their jobs & we’re not accommodating at all when our room wasn’t ready at check in.

The rooms need some TLC. Carpet needs to be replaced and the mattress were not very comfortable.
