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.

Disappointing stay
The room was in poor condition with the bathroom sink loose and faulty shower light. Breakfast was a joke with none of the three staff actually giving much thought to the guests. Sadly, it will always have business due to its location right next to the Mariposa grove gate.

Everything was good and excellent location for the train visit. However at breakfast there were no bagels or yoghurts due to the French families taking more than they should and being inconsiderate.

We stayed at the Narrow Gauge Inn after a long day of hiking and exploring Yosemite Park. It's an inn with a long history, and is quite charming. Our view out our back deck was woods, and was serene and beautiful -- great place to enjoy morning coffee in peace, watching the sunrise! We ate supper at the restaurant on the property. Wonderful food, but it was a bit of a splurge cost-wise. Our room was comfortable with a large bathroom and at-the-door parking. I will note, we booked a 2-queen bed room, but the beds seemed to be doubles instead of queens. There was a complimentary continental breakfast consisting of bagels, muffins, yogurt, packages of hard-boiled eggs, and Frosted Flakes. The property is gorgeous, and the location is convenient. I would recommend this inn to family and friends with the understanding that it's a bit on the pricier side, but you're paying for convenience.

A real gem
This is a special place! It was quite a surprise when we pulled in, just to see how charming and magical this property is. The staff was kind and helpful, and our room was so relaxing. It really helped us feel like we were on vacation. And, we ended up eating dinner in the restaurant both nights - the food was fantastic and the service excellent! Would highly recommend the Narrow Gauge Inn!

The property was close to Yosemite entrance and the view from our balcony was great. The restaurant was also delicious. There were no coffee cups in the room and office didn't open until 7. The coffee maker cord was so short, it didn't reach the outlet. The outlet next to the bed was not functioning. The balcony was a great place to hang out, but everything was really dirty and the furniture was in bad shape. The one morning we were still around to get breakfast, there were no napkins per the desk clerk. I would suggest breakfast start sooner for those who want to get into the park earlier. This is a great place that would be so much better with a little more effort.

Love this vintage inn!
I didn’t know there were still cute motel like cabins left in the world! I loved this hotel so much. It was absolutely adorable. The whole property is so charming and reminds me of a little 1950s motel. Please Do not renovate this place! Updated are of course necessary but the whole inn exudes vintage cabin charm and that’s really the biggest draw. I really enjoyed my two day stay. The buffalo bar was really rad as well. The parking and check in was easy and quick. The room was comfortable and the location is very close to Yosemite’s South Gate
