If you’re looking for fancy and new, this isn’t it. The property was probably built in the 1960’s and you still use old fashioned turn keys to open your room. Bathrooms have been updated. They have mini fridges and a keurig in your room. Wi-fi is spotty but I found that was the case everywhere in the mountains. Short walk on concrete to Lower Yosemite Falls gorgeous views and just breathtaking to be in the heart of Yosemite Valley.

We stayed here for my yosemite wedding and did not have power in any of the outlets in my room when it was time to get ready.the tv power dodnt work nor the mini fridge. Everything worked out for the most part but it was a huge inconvenience and big stressor for the morning of my wedding. That said, yosemite is absolutely beautiful and if i didnt have to plug in my curling iron to get ready- we would he camping instead of this hotel.

Nothing better than staying right in the heart of the park where you can step outside your door for a hike, or grab something to eat, shop for souvenirs, etc. Room was clean and comfortable.

Great location with immediate views of Yosemite Falls from the car park. Great woodland lodge accomodation. Being in a valley, there is marginal WIFI and TV signal. But the natural beauty is incredible.

This property is badly needing a renovation. You are paying big $ for staying in the park, particularly if you are paying in AUD. The bedding was clean and comfortable but the room could really do with a big clean, windows filthy, carpet needs ripping up. Why they don't put in the fake timber flooring which would be much more servable. The eating places did come as pleasant surprise, a well organised system of ordering, prompt service and a good enough choice of food. Tipping is not required and the prices were acceptable. Given there is no other close accommodation is what you have to weigh up.

I didn't like ANYTHING about the Yosemite Valley Lodge. Paper thin walls between rooms as well as absolutely no insulation, bed was lumpy, pillows sucked, no extra blankets, crappy dirty coffee maker, staff at the eateries, with the exception of the Mountain Room Lounge, were rude, didn't were proper ppe for food handlers, spent more time looking at their phones then doing their jobs, terrible signage, filthy bathrooms. Never again will we stay at this facility. If we had know it was going to be this bad we would have brought our camping gear and slept outside. OMG and this is one of the premier National Parks. UFB!
