"Best location ， clean room"

"We absolutely love this hotel. We stay here at least once a year if not more. The riverside and riverview rooms have a kitchenette, fireplace, whirlpool tub, table and chairs, upgraded TV's and brand new furniture. The rooms are wonderful and the view is gorgeous. They recently upgraded all the rooms and have multiple pools and spas to choose from. Additionally they've also added a family/gameroom with boardgames, pool tables and foosball. Plus areas to sit and read or just relax. Plus, the hotel is only 15 min from Yosemite and 45 min from Mariposa. And the drive is beautiful. We had a leaky shower, and the serviceman came and fixed it right away. He was very efficient and friendly. The front desk girl when we checked in was very friendly and helpful. We had a lot of questions, and she went above and beyond to accommodate us. This place is quite a bit less expensive than staying in the Valley. Having grown up coming to Yosemite, as an adult, finding the Yosemite View Lodge was great. "

"Easy to check in. The heated room was exceptional. Bathrooms could be cleaner but I understand with the amount of people coming in and out it’s hard. Shuttle stop conveniently a small walk away. We stay here every year and we’ll continue to do so."

"The storybook chalet exceeded all expectations! Would highly recommend and would book again in the future! "

"First, reading the negative review, I was worried. OMG, when we arrived to check in the guest service workers, were so friendly, courteous and helpful. Our room was facing the mountain view, which was incredible. I had read reviews, so I knew to make reservations for mealtimes we wanted, which worked perfect. One of the hostess Nina was so positive seating us near a window where on the 1st morning there were deer in the meadow. Our waitress who we had the entire time was Caralien was so attentive made breakfast so enjoyable. The elevator operators so courteous, housekeeper cleaned are room every day. We went off season, so there is basically only one other place open for food, near the visitor center Degnan's kitchen delicious sandwiches and soup and the workers so accommodating. I recommend this hotel its history, location is a must. We were able to see everything and hike trails without leaving the park. When driving into the park it was snowing and there are no side railing or mile markers. We rented a AWD vehicle so we had no problem driving in the snow. Looking out our window at half dome, seeing waterfalls, watching deer. It was amazing. Landing in Fresno we took an hour detour to Sequoia National Park, since we couldn't check in our room till 4pm. Was so worth it, then we drove to Ahwahnee. Enjoyed breakfast the next day and went to Mirror Lake, checked out El captain, Bridal veil Falls went to Tunnel view a must. Then we went hiking Mariposa Falls, so hard."

"Great location to explore Yosemite, cozy place, and the host was extremely responsive and informative. My family had a great time staying here for a few days."

"Host very responsive. clean. plenty of cooking utensils / pans/pots. beautiful esp after snow."

"At first, find our house was confused, I was very impressed with the house after found the place. There was no grill gas for barbecue, so eating outside was a bit little tricky.. But everything was very impressed and had a good time."

"Had a good time in Yosemite. Wish we could've stayed another night. "
