Cheap Hotels & Resorts in El Portal from NZ$198

"We stayed at the Yosemite View Lodge for three nights. The room was a good size but a little dated, the bathroom seems to have gone through a partial refurbishment. The shower ran cold in the mornings, occasionally running warm before going back to cold, it was better in the evenings! We were staying in room 1137 in Maple Block, this was located next to the indoor pool, I think backing onto the pool room. Throughout the nights we could hear the machinery from the pool room so it was quite noisy, also the view from the balcony was not great. There was building works going on so two of the outdoor pools were closed. As others have said there isn't much choice for eating! We ate in the bar a couple of times, the staff were friendly and it had more of an atmosphere than the restaurant (when we walked through it to the salad bar, it was so quiet)! The food was OK, but not the best. We were only staying for three nights and were out during the days, so we didn't raise the issues experienced, however, they aren't isolated as others have reported issues too. Due to the limited hotel options in the area I don't think the owners want to try and improve the hotel, they will always have visitors coming in. However, if there were more options I'd probably consider these first."

"This is a really special place with small touches like nightly somore making; lots of kid friendly activities; an awesome Recreation director, and amazingly friendly & service oriented staff.....Will definitely recommend to others & come back again!!"

"We enjoyed our stay here. I liked the pool, spa, and jackolopes. Everyone was friendly. Grounds were so well maintained. Loved the rubber duck in the bathtub. We didn't do everything the resort has to offer but it was worth every penny. "

"Not the cheapest place to stay but if you want to have a great time at a kid friendly resort near Yosemite, this is it!"

"The room was clean that immediately put me at ease. Its great location made it convenient to explore the surrounding area, while the comfortable bed provided the perfect retreat after a long day of adventures. "

"The property is in a nature setting in Sierra mountains."
