Guest Reviews and Hotel Ratings

Honest Guest Feedback Based on Real Stays
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the Best Western Plus Yosemite Gateway Inn for its convenient location close to Yosemite's south entrance, approximately 30 minutes away. Many appreciate the spacious rooms, some even featuring kitchen areas and refrigerators, with comfortable beds ensuring a pleasant stay. The hotel's layout across 8 acres offers a wood lodge style and easy parking near the buildings, though a few guests have mentioned a slight musty smell in some refrigerator cabinets. The on-site restaurant is a highlight, serving delicious meals, generous portions, and offering vegetarian and vegan options, complemented by a great breakfast with lots of choices.

the indoor pool was super clean (i'm very picky). the groundskeepers maintained the hotel meticulously. the breakfast selections were varied and tasty. i especially liked the fresh fruit!
the lights in the parking area shone brightly into the room. the curtains did not block out enough light. the bathroom door screeched every time it moved.
