Book Cheap Hotels in Yosemite National Park, CA

Only good things to say about the facility, except for the absence of free internet. If you want it, you must pay $10/day for it! All hotels in El Portal seem to charge for it. Apart from that, would book it again.

Terrible menu choices at the restaurant and too expensive.

It is a unique place, unlike any other hotel. The staff is very welcoming.

Nice property. Nice staff. A little far from the valley and pretty expensive.

The location can’t be beat. As part of only 5% of Yosemite that is not protected, national park, and literally has its only entrance INSIDE the park, the area that holds Sequoia East (and West) is magnificent. It’s a unique opportunity to start your day from inside Yosemite. However, the location was not as advertised in several ways. The ad boasted “be the first to stay at this newly built mountain retreat” however, nothing upon arrival or entering communicates that it is new. The outside of the house is already showing weathering. When we opened the front door, we were accosted by a strong odor - part stale food and part musty, closed-up building. If the bedding in any of the rooms is new, it is “new” from a thrift store. I was hoping the pictures online were simply poor images and the bedding simply themed as campy and country. Unfortunately, in real life the bedding AND the beds seemed to be dilapidated and much used - coming by their campy country look by overuse and lack of quality. While two TVs and Dish TV programming was advertised, they failed to mention that there is only ONE tuner. So my kids couldn’t watch something different on the downstairs tv than we were watching on the upstairs tv - which to me defeats the entire purpose of TWO TVs. On top of that, they claim the Internet is too slow to stream anything which could allow you to use the Smart TV features to watch something different on one television.
