Top El Portal Hotel Reviews

Yosemite View Lodge

Yosemite View Lodge

2/10 Terrible
"The room was clean and in order. Cleaning service is only done on request. The staff is very unprofessional, unfriendly and not knowledgeable of the property. While trying to find a fire pit, we were directed to a BBQ. When we returned to the lobby, the staff finally figured out the difference between a fire pit and a BBQ and then proceeded to tell us that the hotel does not provide firewood. Note, they do not sell firewood in their store either. The staff was very rude when asked questions. Breakfast was disgusting. They show a menu online, but they only offer a buffet of about 6 items that were not worth the price. The restaurant, lounge and pizza place is closed all day long so there is nothing offered as far as hot food or drink goes, unless you want to purchase a hungry man frozen dinner in the lobby. The property is beautiful and it could be so much more if the right person or investors were to purchase it. Needless to say, I’d rather stay further down the hill and have better service than to stay at this place. Very disappointed customer."
