The Ahwahnee Hotel Dining Room – Yosemite, California


The crown jewel of Yosemite dining, the award-winning Ahwahnee Dining Room is both magnificent and intimate. The 34-foot-high beamed ceiling with large sugar pine trestles that complement the room’s granite pillars, floor-to-ceiling windows, chandeliers, linen tablecloths and beautiful china create the perfect ambiance for a memorable dining experience.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served daily, as well as an unforgettable Sunday Brunch. Expect to experience culinary delight during your visit to this legendary Yosemite restaurant.
The history of this place makes it worth a visit if you can’t stay here. Our breakfast was excellent and the service was as well. It was definitely a treat to eat here. Walking around the grounds afterwards was a treat as well especially with the Dogwoods in full bloom. Perfect time to visit!

Hotel Wawona – Yosemite – California




Right in the middle of Yosemite, surrounded by  magnificent landscapes, the Hotel is just another paradise. I felt like a Queen transported back to the 19th century, where life seemed to be much more genteel. Drinks on the wrap around porch at 5 pm ! Don’t miss the concerts at night. The piano man knows all about the history of the place.
Must see El Capitan, Half Dome, Yosemite Valley, The Sequoia groves, horse riding (even for beginners like me), hiking, Tolumne Meadows…
