Best Wedding Hotels in Yosemite

Travelers looking to experience the awe-inspiring wilderness of Yosemite National Park without having to sleep on the ground can count on plush beds (as well as a long list of other amenities) at Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite. Sitting about 3 miles from the park's southern entrance, this property earns praise from Yosemite visitors for its chalet-style accommodations. Guest rooms are dressed in wood furnishings and blue and white bedding, and they come equipped with flat-screen TVs and writing desks. What's more, Wi-Fi access and valet parking are provided as part of the daily $30 resort fee. Tenaya Lodge also wins visitors over with deluxe treatments at the acclaimed Ascent Spa, which guests say does the trick when you need some post-hike rest and relaxation. If you don't feel like splurging on a massage, lie back and relax by one of four pools instead. And when dinnertime rolls around, you'll have five on-site restaurants from which to choose.

Sitting within the boundaries of Yosemite National Park, The Majestic Yosemite Hotel hosts some of the park's most desired accommodations. From the outside, the hotel looks like a majestic mountain lodge designed to mimic its impressive surroundings. For example, The Majestic Yosemite Dining Room commands views of Yosemite Falls and massive sugar pine trees, and the solarium provides breathtaking Glacier Point vistas. Visitors were impressed by the thoughtfully designed common areas, though some say the guest rooms (which offer free Wi-Fi access, flat-screen TVs and minifridges) felt drab in comparison. What's more, you'll have to shell out big bucks to overlook key sights like the Half Dome. However, all guests do receive complimentary valet and self-parking, and Yosemite Valley's free area shuttle stops at the property.
