The breakfast is hot and very surprise to us. We love this place, and would come back int he future., by Liangyou, April 15, 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: This is an institution in yosemite . You must stay here at least once in your lifetime. Staff is awesome, rooms are big lovely and historic. Super clean and comfortable. You should keep in mind that this is a national park gem and not a big city luxury hotel. They still have keys for the rooms and this is part of the charm of this one of a kind hotel. Super beautiful location , so glad we came!, by missyb, November 29, 2014, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: This place is perfect for a romantic getaway!! Such a beautiful location (hidden within beautiful Yosemite mountains); our room was comfortable and clean with an incredible view of the Camry valley; the staff was so friendly (go see George at the a Dining Hall for a free, delicious breakfast, served with a smile); the best part is that Yosemite National Park is right around the corner! We are definitely coming back., by Mariam, February 26, 2018, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: Our stay was fantastic! The apartment is cozy, clean and comfortable. The deck facing the sunset was a great place to relax for the evening. It's only 8 minutes from Mariposa which is great, but it's quiet and secluded enough to disconnect if that what you're after. We will definitely stay again., by Alec, August 29, 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
