The best thing about this property is the staff, extremely friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful and there are a lot of places to let your dog potty. The outdoor hot tub is probably the nicest I've enjoyed in any hotel, regardless of price point. Complementary breakfast was first-rate. The rooms are tired and in need of a re-do. The carpet in ours definitely needed replacing, hopefully they put in a hard surface floor. I didn't realize how far Oakhurst is from the Yosemite valley, about an hour away to the main park entrance.

We liked that this hotel had more local charm than some of the newer hotels in the area, but was still a large hotel with all the amenities. Our room was right on the front of the property, but some of the units are way back on hillsides so you might need to walk up/down some hills. The bathroom was really nice - must have been remodeled recently. The restaurant next the hotel had a great breakfast, included with stay - much better than most hotels with continental breakfast only.

Clean and nice hotel with lots of trees and green spaces around the hotel rooms feeling like you’re in the middle of a forest! Love the indoor pool and also there’s an outdoor pool. Breakfast was perfect with lots of choices. Love the arts hanging in the restaurant. Will go again!

I was surprised of Best western hotel, I felt I was staying at motel 6. Too expensive for the room I stayed at for $415 the hotel looked so cheap. It was my husband’s birthday we were both disappointed.

Insanely comfortable beds and clean bathrooms in spite of older buildings. The late check in was super easy and quick. An outdoor pool was a nice touch after a long day exploring Yosemite NP. Free continental breakfast was nice, repeated every other day. The lobby had a charm and felt very welcoming.

Just off the highway. Lovely property. Rooms great, although our mattress was a bit hard. Need to go early for the continental breakfast at their Oakhurst Grill ( we opted out due to the line and hit a great local spot Mountain Oak Cafe). DO EAT at restraunt for dinner! Short drive to a market. Great local art at galleries.
