The hotel enjoys an excellent location, less than a 10-minute walk from the scenic area. Situated right by the river, it offers beautiful views. There are restaurants and supermarkets nearby, perfect for grabbing necessities. Although our booking mentioned no Wi-Fi, we were delighted to receive free Wi-Fi upon check-in – a wonderful surprise!

Exceptional Stay at Yosemite View Lodge – Great Location & Wonderful Staff I stayed at Yosemite View Lodge from July 14–15, 2025, and I had an amazing experience that exceeded expectations in many ways. 1. Outstanding service from the staff During my stay, I accidentally broke the glass plate inside the microwave. The staff showed genuine concern — not about the damage — but whether I’d still be able to use the microwave. When I asked about any damage fees, they kindly told me not to worry and explained that it was a common accident and there would be no charge. Their kindness and professionalism were truly appreciated. 2. Perfect location for Yosemite visitors The lodge is located just minutes from the entrance to Yosemite National Park, which made our trip incredibly convenient. The view from behind the hotel, facing the creek and surrounded by nature, was absolutely stunning and peaceful. 3. Well-equipped and comfortable rooms Our room came with excellent amenities, including a stove, microwave, and cooking utensils. This allowed us to cook our own meals and made the stay much more comfortable and convenient, especially for travelers who prefer self-catering. 4. Lively game room and social atmosphere The hotel has a real game room — not just for display — with pool tables, ping pong, air hockey, and more. Many guests were playing, and it created a fun, social atmosphere. I even made a few new friends there, which was a lovely bonus! 5. Multiple pools and relaxing spa options Yosemite View Lodge offers several pools — both indoor and outdoor — including a relaxing hot spa pool. After a long day of hiking, soaking in the hot tub was perfect. The only minor downside was that there were no shower rooms near the pool area, but this didn’t detract much from the overall experience. In summary, this was a fantastic stay with warm hospitality, great facilities, and a location that can’t be beat. I would absolutely recommend Yosemite View Lodge to anyone visiting Yosemite!

The experience of staying right by the stream was wonderful. For breakfast, they even offered instant noodles you could cook yourself, which was a huge comfort for Chinese guests not accustomed to cold breakfast options. Eating instant noodles while overlooking the stream was incredibly relaxing.

Air conditioning didn’t work very well in the room and there needs to be at least one water bottle fill station

The room was very spacious, and the small kitchenette was incredibly convenient. It also featured a large balcony, and the outdoor environment was quite pleasant. There's a restaurant and a souvenir shop on-site. Located right next to a park, the area is safe and transportation is convenient. While the price is admittedly high, it's expected given the prime location. Overall, though, it's still quite a good option.

The value for money was genuinely poor. Dining options were a major issue, as there was literally nothing but pizza.
