Search Your Yosemite Valley Hotels

Yosemite Valley Lodge is conveniently located inside Yosemite village as this is time of the year to see the firefall. Hotel has restaurant and cafeteria cater to different needs. Room is good but would be great if they have a microwave oven available so can use late night as restaurant closes at 9pm

End of Oct 2024 spilling into Nov stay with 5 days using property as base for active exploration and hiking for milestone 40th anniversary. Charm and challenges of an older property no different from our experiences with El Tovar main suite and Bucky ONeil Suite, Grand Canyon and Zion National Park Lodge ...i.e. location on prime National Park ”real estate” for active and nature minded individuals. If it helps, expect quirky imperfections along with the privilege of enjoying national treasures. In this visit, so thankful a quieter Classic Cottage in a duplex setting was available for our gear sorting and healthy ”eats”, cooler with lots of water and hydrating options we shopped for in Fresno. Bathroom and side storage area buffer from unit on back side. Room was clean, all needed features working...used the small heater (similar quirky heating workaround to our Bucky ONeil Cabin in Grand Canyon years earlier)...shower water hot...pressure, low flow conservation fixture. All staff were attentive, helpful and friendly during our encounters when we needed assistance. We generally like our privacy and independence and requested no contact for housekeeping...we booked for location and ambiance vs. pampering ...extra supplies provided upon request with short explanation from us, no questions asked...tp, extra towels, coffee etc....Note: coffee machine was not a regular Nespresso machine but thinner single serve expresso like caffeine hits. worked for us...we left the other type we brought from Fresno for housekeeping to pass along or trash. Classic cottage was delayed about an hour as final inspection and placement of a concierge collaborative bottle of chilled wine was placed with glasses pre arrival.. After 16.85 mile 4 mile, Panorama to John Muir ”walk about” with side explorations...next day...broke down and enjoyed the buffet breakfast to replace calories and experience the ”dining room”...Meal warm, views beautiful, staff thoughtful, smiling and attentive. Iconic window seating...thank you who ever allowed the cap wearing tired old dude peaceful table location to enjoy the ”historic dining room experience” with his better half of many years...buffet choices warm, varied and actually preferred as no waiting around. Industrial makeshift trailers housing kitchen crews and equipment outside some windows was expected. Forced valet situation was never an issue we thought might hamper our ”get n go” plans. Guys and one gal all friendly, literally fast and always helpful with our questions they have probably answered many times before us. Tips are shared by Valet team, Bell help is individual. Tips never expected, service on point with our expectations...thanks to check out day Valet who turned the rental seat heat on. Who knew the joys of heated seats on cold mornings....smile. Really appreciated the small extra stuff given the hustle and bustle at the stand... Prices: imagine being a supplier, employee or con

Best location! It was near and easy going around Yosemite park from this hotel. Right outside our room was the river and it was the best sight specially in the morning. Love the big bath tub with jets! Just needs more cleaning coz i noticed it has got molds already. There is absolutely no phone signal here and Wifi is not free so you have to purchase on check in. Funny tho coz once you are in Yosemite park, there is LTE signal. There is fridge, cooking utensils, electric stove, plates, cups, cleaning stuff, room was huge!! We got the 2 queen beds room type. The food in their restaurant is not so bad, the service could be better tho. Our food came super slow. There is plenty of parking space and its for free. I never get to try their pool and laundry facilities.
