Best Western Plus Yosemite Gateway Inn

Value for money? not here @ BW zero frills. I’d rather go some place where I wouldn’t expect as much given the spend, and walk away not feeling as disappointed......be smart about this now. Need I say more... less

Room, grounds, service, included breakfast were all great. Staff were all welcoming and friendly. Discover Yosemite Tour Bus picked us up at the hotel and the All Day Tour with Marsha was also an excellent experience. Highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and authentic mountain retreat feel at one of the most beautiful National Parks in the U.S. Be sure to check out Bass Lake as well - truly a beautiful setting! less

Lovely welcome at reception. Nice grounds and accommodation blocks. Pools, jacuzzi, great laundrette, gym. Room large with fridge, microwave, coffee machine, hairdryer, iron. No aircon but there was a ceiling fan and a patio door that overlooked the pool. TV channels very fuzzy with a very basic remote. Bed large and comfortable. General feel of the room was a bit dated but it did the job. Restaurant - we ate her one night. It was 'okay'. The dining room lala atmosphere and on hindsight we should have asked to eat in the bar but I'm not sure if that is an option. Breakfast was fine - all options available. We also ate at other places in Oakhurst, there's plenty of choice. This includes a pizza from a small business across the road which was tasty. I was surprised how big oakhurst was. Lots of shops and amenities, including Crossfit and a huge gym in town. Though I didn't use the the gyms as Yosemite is the best outdoor gym. The drive each day to Yosemite Valley (not the entrance) took us about 90 min. It costs $35 per car to enter the park and this lasts 7 days. I will definitely be returning to Yosemite. I may opt to try and stay a bit closer next time. less

good location while visiting Yosemite. Close to stores and restaurants. Loved the setting of the hotel and was a nice quiet area. Would recommend to friends and family to stay at this hotel if visiting Yosemite less

We stayed 6 nights and we were only planning to stay 3 nights. The accommodations, location, and setting were excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would like to give a special recognition to Lori. She went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and make sure that we had an exceptional stay while at the BW Gateway Inn. She was friendly, patient, and professional. The morning breakfast was extra special. Not only was the selection of food very good, but the staff were constantly making sure that everything was just right. Make note of all the paintings and murals in the rooms and guest areas. They were painted by the owner. She is a very talented painter and makes the whole experience seem like home. We are definitely returning. less
