We have stayed at the ahwahnee once before and it is a beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting. However it is very expensive so we had high expectations. Our travel arrangements were locked in when we were notified there were building works scheduled during our stay - think this should have been made clear when we made the booking. We had requested Room 444 as we had stayed in it before and had good memories ... despite reminding the hotel of the request we were told it was not available when we arrived. Had the sense that no effort had been made to accommodate our wish, so that was a little deflating. On the day before our departure we were notified electricity would be turned off at 8am. We decided to leave before the 11am check out as a result and were in the elevator well on the fifth floor well before 8 but the elevator did not arrive and power was turned off despite a staff member requesting the power to stay on do we could use the elevator. I had to take our reasonably heavy luggage down the stairs. It is such a perfect place and great building that left a sour taste. We were offered a discount, only some of the promised amount was refunded to my credit card but soooo disappointed as we had looked forward to this stay. The mandatory valet parking service USD30 plus tip/day had been introduced since our last stay and it would be more honest to include that amount in the room charge. Hate hidden charges.

Die Lage ist sehr gut. Es ist sehr nah zum Dom gelegen.

Keine Möglichkeit, sich etwas zu Essen zu machen, nur zwei Tassen und zwei Gläser. Der Kühlschrank ist Mini. Es zwingt einen zum Essen gehen. Die Betten sind extrem durchgelegen, man rollt aufeinander. Das ganze Gepäck muss zum Bungalow geschleppt werden oder man kann für Trinkgeld einen Gepäckträger beauftragen. Wir hatten kein Internet, obwohl beschrieben. Das Bad roch stark nach Urin.

המלון נבנה ב 1927. הוא משומר בצורה יפה. נוף מדהים נשקף ממנו. הבקתה שהיינו בה מרווחת ושקטה

השיפוצים במלון קצת הפריעו. חבל שהוויפי לא עובד טוב בחדרים.

Beautiful building, cool history, and great location.

No internet in our room. Staff said it was “mountain” internet. I guess that means it doesn’t work. Food was not good for the price. Rooms were very small.

Location is excellent. beautiful views from many areas in the hotel - including our room! So tastefully decorated, magnificent design of the hotel/facilities overall - to blend in with the environment. Great to have various food options, and everything we had was delicious. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Due to some maintenance could only use valet parking at the hotel - that was an unexpected cost. we pretty much loved everything else, so glad we decided to stay here for a change.

Great !!!

It’s historical, great to be inside the park already.

It’s very expensive. Valet park only. I stayed there for the experience, but I wouldn’t stay again.

The location makes all the expense and travel well worth it. Stunningly beautiful. Majestic. The Awhanee is in the perfect location for adventurous day hikes on so many beautiful nearby trails.

My husband and I are not really fans of buffets. It was the only breakfast, dinner option in the beautiful, historic dining room.
