Spring Wonderland, hotel in El Portal

Centrally located inside Yosemite National Park, Spring Wonderland offers the closest private accommodations to the Yosemite Valley Floor.

We liked that there was a lot of space. We only had 4 people so the 3 bedrooms were plenty for us. There was a billards table too which was super nice for us to use and pass time. The hosts were responsive and wifi was good given the little signal we had in the mountains (which was expected of yosemite). The location was also in the middle of Yosemite so getting to places for hikes and sites wasn't bad at all.

    We didn't travel to visit El Portal which is pretty sparse.

    We didn't travel to visit El Portal which is pretty sparse. Its proximity to Yosemite is the reason we visit. There is a service station which is strategically located and also a fairly good coffee shop (dog friendly).

    The place had Tesla fast charging stations.

    The place had Tesla fast charging stations. The property was old but clean. The carpet could use a deep clean. The room had a balcony with a table and some chairs great for drinking with friends or just hang out and relax while looking out the river. The room was really big and spacious with a ref, stove top, coffee maker and some cooking and serving utensils. Actually the property was decent but with no cellular coverage (Tmobile), wifi should have been readily available. Here you have to pay through a 3rd party. Sad! So it’s not great for virtual meetings and stuff.

    The location and staff were excellent!!

    The location and staff were excellent!! The room was clean, the amenities were great as well, the only problem was our TV. Maintenance couldn’t fix it so they gave us the internet for the TV the first night to remedy the situation which was amazing but not the second night which put a damper on things with no Tv to relax the second night.

    The hotel location was good and near to Yosemite.

    The hotel location was good and near to Yosemite. The room was good. The Pizza restaurant was good. We didn't like having to book room service (towels etc and coffee for room) on a daily basis. In our opinion is a throwback to Covid pandemic days, as a management policy to save money not support the customer.

    Close to Yosemite park entrance, just a short drive.

    Close to Yosemite park entrance, just a short drive. Mildly wild river behind the hotel is great. We ate mostly in Yosemite park (very nice dinner at Yosemite Valley Lodge Mountain Dining Room and a great lunch at Ahwahnee hotel bar).

    The property is very close to Yosemite National Park. There is a shop onsite which covers all the necessities. The view up and down the valley was amazing + it is beside the river which is beautiful. The Pizza Restaurant is awesome and the breakfast buffet at the River Restaurant is excellent. The room kitchenette is modest but has enough to enjoy simple meals.
