The location proximity to Yosemite National Park is great! After a very long day at the park we were greeted by a super friendly staff member! The room is dated however it’s clean and comfortable. We were very happy that a restaurant is located adjacent to the motel. We would recommend this to anyone who wants a clean comfortable convenient place!

The room is clean and the area is quite, but there is no chair or sofa in the room. You either lay down on the bed or stand on the floor. You have no place to sit.

There were a couple of things that should be brought to management attention. First, there were huge cobwebs along side the bed at the ceiling. Second, after the first day (of a four day stay) the shower drain wasn't draining properly. Now you could ask why we didn't bring these things to management attention immediately. Well, we would have if we hadn't had a terrible and inhospitable interaction with a male employee. After checking in with a delightful & super professional female employee the first evening we went back to the office the next day to simple ask where the closest gas station was and was meant with the afore mentioned male whose behavior could only be described as borderline angry & hostile, as if we were bothering him with our inconvenient questions. He barely answered our question as if he couldn't be bother. We came away wondering why this guy was in the hospitality business because his behavior tainted what was otherwise a very nice stay.

Great for 1 nite stay. Checkin was easy, room small but adequate. Only issue was the bright light outside our room. Drapes not full enough to stop light from coming in. Fridge was loud so unplugged it. Restaurant was busy so slow service but staff was nice.

Bucks Meadow Lodge - Rude Management
We reserved 3 nights at Bucks Meadow Lodge for our visit to Yosemite, but when arrived found out the road into Yosemite had been closed due to rockslide. I called the front desk and asked (even though non-refundable) if they could make exception and credit us for 2 nights as we decided to leave the following day due to our inability to access the park. We decided to book another hotel at another entrance, since detour would add 2 additional hours a day. To make a long story short, we were treated so poorly by the Manager, Manoj. He was very argumentative, hostile and would not let me speak. Hotels.com attempted multiple times that day to call an employee from Buck Meadows Lodge to rectify the situation, they refused to answer the phone. After spending way too much time on my part, being polite and biting my tongue to this abusive man, we booked a new hotel and I turned in keys the next day and walked away. Hotels.com attempted several more times the next day, they would not answer their phone. I went back and dove deeper into the reviews from the Buck Meadows Lodge. Multiple complaints about their management. I would not recommend giving them your business.

We had to move rooms because the AC unit was so loud we could not sleep. The property manager was very accommodating to get us a new room without hesitation. The pillows in the first room were horrible and flat as a pancake. The new room all the pillows were much better. Would stay again when it’s in season and the restaurant and bar are open.
