"This hotel is great and I would be glad to stay again. The location in relation to Yosemite can't be beat. We loved that there was a store on site with amenities and groceries. We also had a balcony with a table and view of the river for our room. We really appreciated having a kitchenette as there aren't really any restaurants nearby. The hotel had a restaurant but we did not try it as it didn't have good reviews."
"The air, warm and cold worked perfectly. The rooms were great. We had no issues with anything and will use this spot again! Very happy with our choice!"
"If you're looking for a place to stay near Yosemite, we HIGHLY recommend the Lee Vining Hotel! Our room was immaculate, comfortable, and was just what we needed for our four-day stay. It is recently renovated/updated, and our room had a mini-fridge and a microwave. There are also chairs and some tables outside of the room which is nice when the weather in suitable for sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air. The hotel is centrally located in the town and within walking distance to a diner, a barbecue restaurant, several coffee shops, and let's not forget the Mono Cone for ice cream, milkshakes, yummy burgers and such. Housekeeping does an amazing job of preparing the room for guests, including putting a bow on the toilet paper and even making a bow with the washcloths. Not necessary, but a nice little touch. The staff is also very friendly. For late arrivals, they put your key and information on a board at the front of the hotel. Just be sure to let them know you will be arriving late.
The Lee Vining Hotel is conveniently located to the Tioga Pass entrance to Yosemite (12 miles), Bodie Mining Town/Historic Park (31 miles/approx 45 min drive), June Lake, and Mono Lake. One benefit of staying in Lee Vining as opposed to Mammoth Lakes is that there isn't a tourism charge in Lee Vining.
If you're traveling through or looking for an affordable, clean, and comfortable place to stay for your visit to Yosemite, we give LVH 5 stars. Would definitely stay here again!"
"We had a 1 bedroom with full kitchen. We cooked daily. Room had everything we needed. Very clean.
Cons, no a/c. Fans are provided and we got a nice cross breeze. The ice machine was out. The water heater was small meaning you had to get in and out quickly.
All that being said, I would still recommend staying there. We have stayed at others and this is our favorite."
"Virginia Creek Settlement is the perfect place to stay while visiting Bodie State Park and Mono Lake. Cabin was cozy with just the right amount of room. The creek runs right by the cabins so bring earplugs if you don’t like “white” noise. We found it soothing. We received a “goodie”bag on check-in. Coffee pods and cups for the coffee maker and supplies for SMores. There is a fire pit next to the cabin. Our cabin had its own bathroom. Smaller cabins share bathroom and showers.
The restaurant has a good menu and the service was good."
"This was the second visit to this motel. The bed is very comfortable.It has an efficient kitchen with a full stove refrigerator and microwave. It is very clean. It is located right in town so you can walk to most restaurants. You can walk to June lake and Gull if you want."
