Very convenient being in Kings Canyon National Park. The rooms were quite dated & loud. Room 102 should be turned into the housekeeping closet since it is right under the stairs & you can hear every step. The restaurant didn’t have a lot of options & was slow but it was something. There is a microwave & coffee in the lobby so that was helpful.

Basic hotel. Good dining option at the Grant Grove restaurant. Conveniently located. Staff was friendly and hospitable. 4 stars because the rooms were small and dated. However, I would stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This hotel commands its price because it is located in the park. It does have a pleasant lobby for relaxing, and there are rocking chairs on the porches. But there is no area immediately adjacent to the hotel to explore, just a parking lot and a paved road to walk to the restaurant and visitor's center. At night, it is totally dark once you exit the front door to the parking lot. We brought our small dog and there is no area set aside for him to relieve himself. In fact, most of what is accessible on the hill has signs to stay off. The room just has a fan for cooling. The only microwave is in the lobby. I thought the staff were good at their jobs.

Resting on its laurels - work needed

Very dated property with limited facilities. Staff were sassy about people trying to check in and hour early then had a full lobby 2 hours after check in time because none of the rooms were clean.
