The pools are great! The restaurant is AWFUL!

The pools are great! The restaurant is AWFUL! I'd rather eat my shoe than eat at that restaurant! The bar/grill are ok, certainly better than the restaurant, but that is speaking relatively... The store is very nice, offering a good variety of snacks and drinks. The location is very good, just a few miles away from the Yosemite entrance. The staff were friendly and responsive. The rooms were clean, and, thankfully, the AC worked well (it was 109 degrees when we were there!). The bathroom lights turned on automatically whenever someone entered the room, which we didn't like, and would have liked a way to turn that feature off.

We didn't travel to visit El Portal which is pretty sparse.

We didn't travel to visit El Portal which is pretty sparse. Its proximity to Yosemite is the reason we visit. There is a service station which is strategically located and also a fairly good coffee shop (dog friendly).

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.

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.

We 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.

Room Size was good, location near to Yosemite Valley (a 15-30 min drive away. El portal is a quiet location with one shop. Expect to use the restaurants on site or cook as there isn't anything else nearby that is in walking distance.

Location an easy drive to Yosemite National Park. Facilities were good for self-catering - we brought our food with us. There is a nice walk along the river from the property.

That it had parking? It's like 40 minutes from Yosemite, some might say it's pretty close compared to hotel hotels, but idk..
