Yosemite View Lodge

8/10 Good
"We would recommend this hotel. This is an older hotel that could use some updating however, the location is perfect to visit Yosemite National Park. The hotel is built along Merced River and has lovely views. Our double queen room had a balcony overlooking the river. It also had a kitchenette with two burners, a small refrigerator, a microwave, & a sink. We didn't take advantage of the amenities but there were several, including and indoor pool, an outdoor pool, a fitness room, and an outdoor playground for littles. There were two restaurants on the grounds open for breakfast and dinner. There was construction happening near our building but it didn't bother our stay."

Indian Flat RV Park - Tent Cabins & Cottages

Indian Flat RV Park - Tent Cabins & Cottages

8/10 Good
"Very eclectic little place to stay. The Expedia listed sq footage of 65 is inaccurate. It's actually 650 sq ft. Indian Flats is actually part of the adjacent lodging facility so you have access to an outdoor and indoor pool. The adjacent facility has a great restaurant also (limited hours). Cute little feature was a towel creature like in a cruise ship cabin. Kitchen area very clean. The "Cozy Cabin" has parking right next to the lodging. There is a fire bar-b-que and seating behind plus a little sitting table on the front porch. The lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful. Later that evening I had a question and she immediately sent someone to help me. I felt very safe. The facility, though old, was clean and in fine repair. Only thing it really is in need of are the Venetian blinds to be replaced. They have definitely seen better days. Overall, great experience."

Yosemite Valley Lodge

Yosemite Valley Lodge

8/10 Good
"It was nice staying IN the park. Keeping in mind that’s a national park and not a luxury resort I expected less in that respect. The room had cobwebs which is okay but the bathroom smelled of urine, not okay. The shower curtain was about 6-8 inches too long and had a terrible odor to it. The front desk staff just seemed tired and worn out. Not as helpful as they could’ve been. The sports bar/lounge was nice with friendly wait staff. But the beauty of being in such an amazing place seemed to outweigh all the negative. Definitely worth staying there but you need to plan WAY in advance for reservations. I made ours 5 months ago and was told at that time that it was the last available."
