My girlfriend and I stayed in the Best Western for one night whilst en-route from San Francisco to Vegas. We found the property extremely homely and well maintained. Staying in the middle of nowhere, we were a little apprehensive about safety although this was soon quashed with the friendly and helpful reception. I would have one critique and that would... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in March as a base for exploring Yosemite. Conveniently situated about an hour from Yosemite valley, turn left out of the hotel and just keep driving...couldn't be easier. Quick check-in (2hrs before the earliest check-in time) and given keys and a map of the hotel. This hotel is split in to several different buildings... More

This place is in Oakhurst and a close enough to Yosemite to make it an easy drive. We stayed in early May, it may be a different story if you go during the peak summer months. Out room was situated up near the top of the property so no street noise. The room was clean and the up to date.... More

Its only 18 miles to the entrance, but on curvy roads. It takes about 1 hour to get to the attractions. Very clean and MUCH cheaper than staying in YOSEMITE. We stayed in the older section, but the remodeled nicer. No free breakfast but they gave you 20% off to eat in their restaurant. The area has LOTS of restaurants... More

Very large and well kept hotel that is close to Yosemite National Park. We stayed in the new section so everything was up to date, clean and new. We liked it because we were about 10 miles from the south entrance the park and yet in town for events that take place and options on dining. The price was moderate... More

It was a nice village. The lodges inside the park are very expensive so this seems to be the only nice and decent option. It takes around one hour drive to the valley, which is acceptable to us. The hotel looks very cozy. Room is big, clean and well facilitated. Highly recommend if you are not a hiking zealous who... More

We stayed at this hotel during our visit to Yosemite. This hotel is at a great location from Yosemite National Park. Just to let everyone be aware that the main national part is about 90 minutes drive but it will easily take one about 2 1/2 hrs since there are a lot of scenic spots on the way. The main... More

Oakhurst is probably the closest town to Yosemite National Park and the better place to stay if you're not camping. This hotel has a weird layout as there are separate buildings on each level of a very steep hill! So I suggest if you intend to use the indoor pool to ask for a room near it. The rooms were... More

Staying in the Yosemite National Park itself seems to be very expensive if you don't want to go camping. Oakhurst is a good 30 mins drive to the southern entrance of the Park but we didn't really come across anywhere closer, so this town seems to be the best option. Front desk staff not exactly the friendliest but we arrived... More
