El Portal Hotel Guide - Hotels with Bar in El Portal, California

"This property is just outside the South Entrance to Yosemite. We checked in to the hotel and went to see the Giant Sequoia’s, which were about 10 minutes from the property inside the South Entrance. Then we spent the whole next day hiking Yosemite. On check out day, we sat comfortably on our balcony and watched an amazing sunrise. We really liked being outside the park and away from everyone. The hotel has a restaurant/bar attached to the hotel, which was so convenient after a long day in the park. The hotel, restaurant, and bar staff were very friendly and helpful. This is a GREAT place to stay, eat, and drink."

"They did a great job of moving us to a room with AC since part of the lodge had no power due to wildfire within the power grid."

"Very pleasant stay.. Everything was great, beautiful hotel with great service, staff are friendly, restaurants inside hotel has good food. "

"The service is good. The dinner is delicious. The children are very happy."

"Air conditioning worked incredibly well despite it being 97 degrees outside. The room was exactly what we needed for our trip :)"

"good"

"Room was excellent and property is only about 10 minutes froom Yosemite park entrance. Bed big and comfortable, restaurant very acceptable, room had fridge, stove, kitchen supplies. Be sure to get a river view room. We'd stay there again for sure."

"We stayed in a cabin with sofa bed. The hotel has a lovely setting with lots of things to do. We booked two guided hikes/tours - both were excellent. The pool was a little crowded with lots of children and I don’t recommend the nightly BBQ as it’s difficult to get a table before the food runs out. But the tavern and restaurant were fab. There is a games room which our teenage son loved. The cottage was a little rustic and the sofa bed squeaked but overall fine. I am really glad we booked this hotel as the other two in the same chain are either further from the park (Firefall) or more of a traditional hotel style (Rush Creek). "
