I selected this hotel based on the breakfast reviews, despite the room appearance not being impressive. I visited the restaurant of the hotel, the food was exceptional, so I assume the same staff prepares breakfast, resulting in good taste, although the variety could be improved. While the room feels dated, it is still kept clean.

There was no water bottle in the room. It's 1.5 hour far from the main Yosemite places.

Location is perfect, staff is friendly. We had a nice balcony with chairs. Coffee was good. A great place to sleep before visiting Yosemite. I will definitely choose the same hotel if I ever get the change to visit Oakhurst. The hot tub outside was awesome. The water was so hot and we had a nice relaxing night each day we stayed there. Don't hesitate and book the hotel. Food was okay, nice touch was ready to take chocolate soya milk and paper cups for takeaway coffee and tea.

Please add some fresh, unprocessed vegetables for breakfast (like tomatoes, cucumber, pepper, etc). Just buy vegetables, wash them and cut, I believe people would love that. We got tired of eating high-calorie, fatty and sweet food each day. The food provided was tasty but we really missed vegetables.

Room size, decor and very clean. Front desk was polite professional, friendly and provided suggestions for stay., in terms of dining and things to do locally. Ate dinner in restaurant- steaks and salmon dishes, with Creme Brulee for dessert-all delicious. Bar drinks good too!

Restaurant could use some refurbishing on the inside. Ate in bar area which did not match pictures online. Chair cushions cracked. (Food /desert/drinks were delicious. ) Service was 7out of 10. Requested waters in addition to bar drinks ordered and they were forgotten about and not brought until much later in the meal.

The breakfast was terrific with a generous amount of options. The staff were all exceptionally courteous. The rooms were clean and had good amount of tech for the modern traveler (casting to the large Samsung TVs, plenty of USB-A/C chargers and outlets. The indoor pool was a hit with the kids. Oh, and the rooms are grouped into these mini-clusters of male 10 rooms max in buildings spread throughout the property, so it's more cozy than staying in one giant building. Quieter too. Great stay, highly recommended!

The menu selection at the restaurant was somewhat limited. Mostly Italian fare. Would be nice to have more "casual American diner" choices. But the food they did have was tasty and the servers were excellent!

I loved this location! The grounds are beautiful, the staff was amazing, our room was clean and comfortable. It was great to have a playground right next to our room, the back porch was perfect, and the morning breakfast was so delicious, it was the cherry on top! The restaurant staff was so attentive and the food reflected their personality and care. Couldn't be happier with our stay.

IF I had to be picky I would say the rooms are a little dated BUT that literally had no effect on our stay, our experience, and I 100% will be coming back with or without an update of the rooms.

The Room - very roomy and the beds were comfortable. We especially like having two king beds. Breakfast was great all three mornings. Staff super helpful and nice. Please keep the buffet w/the staff serving the food. It made us feel safe with how many guests were partaking in breakfast. The restaurant was...well...wow! Our favorites were the humongous Pretzel and Cioppino was absolutely incredible. They kindly gave us a late checkout, which was especially nice because we were not able to experience any snow.

Found a hair in one of the beds and in the bathroom - which was kind of yucky. The room next to us sounded like it had 10 kids in it - but there was only two. The drawer in under the TV wouldn't stay closed. I had to get tape from the front desk to keep it close. All in all nothing that wasn't an easy fix.

It was very quiet, clean, with daily housekeeping. I never got the coffee maker to work. That would be my only complaint. We dined the 1st night at the restaurant adjacent to the hotel. It was good, the staff was friendly. The hotel is on a steep hill. Our room was at the top of that hill. My husband and I are in terrible shape. Walking down the hill was ok, enjoyable. Walking back up the hill with full stomachs was not possible, we asked for a hotel golf cart ride to our room, they were very abilging..

Coffee maker, not sure if user error or coffee maker.

Large well-kept hotel area with a playground and the possibility of walking a dog. The room is quite large, clean and with good sound insulation. The children were very happy with the indoor pool and jacuzzi. It was also nice to receive a message on the road that our room is ready and not to worry about it. The staff at breakfast was very nice, the breakfast is standard, but the staff tries very hard, it was very nice. Convenient location and many shops and cafes nearby.

This didn't happen

Our stay at the Best Western Plus Yosemite Gateway Inn was truly exceptional! The location is perfect, just a short drive from Yosemite National Park, with plenty of restaurants nearby. The hotel even has its restaurant for a convenient dinner option, but what truly stood out was the breakfast. It was delicious and offered a wide selection, all served in a beautifully maintained and neat breakfast area. The hotel layout is unique, with several buildings. We stayed in one at the top, which added to the charm. Our room was spacious, impeccably clean, and had a balcony overlooking trees with a lovely view such a peaceful setting! The shower was fantastic, providing the perfect way to relax after exploring. The staff at the front desk were exceptional, offering warm and attentive service. The front desk area itself was beautifully decorated, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. Everything about this hotel exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Yosemite!

Nothing. Everything was great about this hotel!

It was a very convenient location. The breakfast was decent. The scenery was very nice. Dinner at the restaurant was tasty and satisfying. Had the steak bites for an appetizer. Ambience with the fire was nice. Western burger and chicken Marsala was enough to have leftovers. Lucky the room had fridge and microwave to keep fresh and reheat.

The remote to the Samsung TV did not work. Maintenance came up. Very friendly but could not resolve the problem Room 309. My Bf figured out how to manually change the channels and adjust the volume but to be honest it was an inconvenience to have him stand there and act as a remote control. They need to figure out these need high tech features. No fan in the bathroom. Open the window at the top of the vanity if you're tall enough. 😊
