Ahwahnee Hotel outside winter snow

The Ahwahnee Hotel

Add to wishlist Contact us

The Ahwahnee Hotel is a treasured lodge, nearly as famous as the park itself. Completed in 1927 and designed with the natural surroundings in mind.

Public spaces are grand, with wooden beams, huge stone fireplaces, high ceilings and both the dining room and lounge having floor to ceiling windows. The 123 spacious rooms and suites, many with balconies, offer views of the surrounding wilderness. With access to many of the best walks and sights including Glacier Point, this is a fantastic place to stay for exploring the park.

Why we like The Ahwahnee Hotel

Locations don’t get much better than this! Tucked away in the heart of the Yosemite National Park, spectacular scenery can be found at every angle. With access to great walks right on the doorstep, where better to stay that at the centre of the excitement!
