The space inside the lodge and there was 4 toilets. The location was at 6000 feet so maybe not for everyone but I enjoyed it a lot.

Excellent location. Restaurant and Pizza Parlor on site.
Excellent location. Restaurant and Pizza Parlor on site. Plenty of parking. Store well stocked with a variety of items. Best of all staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay again in the future.

The place had Tesla fast charging stations.
The place had Tesla fast charging stations. The property was old but clean. The carpet could use a deep clean. The room had a balcony with a table and some chairs great for drinking with friends or just hang out and relax while looking out the river. The room was really big and spacious with a ref, stove top, coffee maker and some cooking and serving utensils. Actually the property was decent but with no cellular coverage (Tmobile), wifi should have been readily available. Here you have to pay through a 3rd party. Sad! So it’s not great for virtual meetings and stuff.

The location and staff were excellent!!
The location and staff were excellent!! The room was clean, the amenities were great as well, the only problem was our TV. Maintenance couldn’t fix it so they gave us the internet for the TV the first night to remedy the situation which was amazing but not the second night which put a damper on things with no Tv to relax the second night.Lisa - 8.0Scored 8.0
The hotel location was good and near to Yosemite.
The hotel location was good and near to Yosemite. The room was good. The Pizza restaurant was good. We didn't like having to book room service (towels etc and coffee for room) on a daily basis. In our opinion is a throwback to Covid pandemic days, as a management policy to save money not support the customer.MikeUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
Close to Yosemite park entrance, just a short drive.
Close to Yosemite park entrance, just a short drive. Mildly wild river behind the hotel is great. We ate mostly in Yosemite park (very nice dinner at Yosemite Valley Lodge Mountain Dining Room and a great lunch at Ahwahnee hotel bar).JeroenUnited States - 8.0Scored 8.0
Stunning location with great views.
Stunning location with great views. Times quoted for fitness room and swimming opening did not happen. Rooms spacious with good facilities but all looked rather shabby and dated. Rooms need a makeover. Balcony view was amazing.

- From € 716.39 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 8,301 reviewsYou stay here for proximity to the 140 entrance to Yosemite National Park. It's about a 15-minute drive from the hotel into the valley and an hour and fifteen to Tuolumne Meadows along Tioga Pass. The Merced River flows right behind the hotel and that's honestly very beautiful. There is a Chevron across the street and the closest gas station, and that is convenient. There is a glass stove plate and a microwave and some utensils that would make it a good place for people who want to do a small amount of cooking.NNatalieFrance
- 7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 1,907 reviewsQuiet! The other people staying at this hotel were quiet, respectful, and I suspect everyone was there to go in to Yosemite for daytime hikes. We were close to the highway in front of the hotel, but car traffic was minimal to none between 8pm-10am. Pillows were great. Plenty of hot water for showers. Bath towels were thick and high quality. Black out curtains kept light out and the air conditioner wasn’t too loud. Easy check in/out, convenient small store for buying snacks, hats souvenirs, etc.JenniferUnited States
- 7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 1,907 reviewsWe liked everything. The carpark is very big. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. There are 2 swimming pools, the river is across the road from the hotel. Loads of little cosy places to picnic and relax. Only 30 min from Curry Village and all the hikes. The hotel has its own shop and little restauration place. I could go on and on and on. We will definitely stay there again. The pictures do not do justice to this place. It is truly unbelievable a hidden gem in the heart of Yosemite.
FlorianeIreland - From € 716.39 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 8,301 reviewsThe location of the hotel is great - we have reached the Yosemite National Park with our car within a couple of minutes from there. To avoid any bear-attacks, we didn't leave anything in the car, and as there were elevators, it was easy to carry our luggage into our room. The receptionist was quite nice and gave us useful tips. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast there with a varied buffet and an attentive service. The view and the area were beautiful, as well as the road there.
KrisztinaAustria - 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 118 reviewsClean, basic, easy check-in at Cedar Lodge. Hot tub is fantastic. Festoon lights are a nice touch. One car space. Located OUTSIDE Yosemite NP, it can be a quick 30 minute drive to the entry gate if you leave early each day (between 6am & 8am). One day we left at 10.15am and it took a full 3 hours in a crawling queue of traffic just to reach the park gate. This was late May, Memorial Day weekend. Big fridge/freezer.
OliviaAustralia - 7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 1,907 reviewsCedar lodge is a 30-40 minute drive to Yosemite's entrance. Big, spacious rooms which are quite old but in good condition. Beds are comfortable and quiet. Parking is free right outside your door. An excellent accommodation to visit Yosemite (apart from the wifi)!KarlMalta

BethanUnited Kingdom - 7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 1,907 reviewsno wifi unfortunately but it was available to purchase, it didn't bother us as much as we where mostly at Yosemite or across from the Hotel is the river and our evenings there we spent there getting in the river or the pool.
