Our stay was fine and the location is very good being just a few miles from Yosemite. The property is dated and there is no daily house keeping, however, the outside areas were nice and we enjoyed sitting outside in the evening. They do offer a continental breakfast with bagels, cereal, and yogurt. Overall, if visiting Yosemite and unable to stay in the park, the Narrow Gauge is a good option as lodging options close to the park are very limited.

This is literally the best place to stay near Yosemite. It's SO close to the park, and then it's also only about 15 minutes down into a small town with lots of food options/ grocery stores. The restaurant at the Inn is SO delicious! Everyone here was ridiculously kind and made our stay easy peasy. We cannot wait to go back. We have found "our spot" for yosemite now.

Overall we loved our stay. The staff was incredibly wonderful, informative and kind. The restaurant on the property has amazing food and service. The hotel propert itself is outdated and because you are in the mountain , forest area. Don’t be surprised if critters make it in the room. There was a centipede and a few mountain insects that we had to discard. The shower door didn’t close and the water was either super cold or scorching hot. We had to figure it out. But this was our expectation when coming into the Inn. It’s not your normal Hotel experience, but it was a good experience that we had. Perhaps if they cleaned the room a little better , I’d give more stars. 🙂

The food at the restaurant was pretty good, but the service was bad probably because it’s hard to get help. The pool was nothing like the picture that is shown.

Our room was fabulous! Spacious room and bathroom. Very clean. We had a lovely private deck that overlooked the pool. The only thing I would change is the breakfast. It consisted of coffee, juice, bagels, granola bars, apples and grits. The food at the attached restaurant was very good but expensive.

Breakfast not optimal. Pricy overall for amenities offered. Feel of a refurbished 2 star motel, except for a beautiful 4 star restaurant dining-room and its gourmet cuisine.

My daughter and I went to Yosemite for a wedding but the resort was full. So we chose the next closest place which was Narrow Gauge. Our first room had people next door who got up at 5am and were ridiculously loud. Then there were many basic maintenance issues like wall fixtures that were old and wouldn’t hold the weight of a simple phone plug, some didn’t work at all. Or the holes in the wall where there used to be a picture. The shower head was loose and couldn’t be adjusted and…..there was a mouse in our room! When we told the front desk that we stayed up all night listening to the mouse rummaging through our items all night they acted like it was no big deal. They said maintenance wouldn’t be able to do anything. So I asked to move. The next room was better and mouse free. But the screen for the door was off and leaned against the wall on the deck. The bathroom sink was running a steady stream the entire time and couldn’t be stopped. When we went down for the continental breakfast in the morning at 8:30am, all the bagels were gone and there was only decaf coffee. The staff member said “yes, when the bagels are gone, that’s it. There’s no more. Sorry.” This place is so cute and has so much potential. But it’s clear that the owners are cheap and don’t care or spend on basic maintenance stuff. I wanted to love it. But I couldn’t.
