Wuksachi Lodge at Sequoia

Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon and Death Valley

Star rating

The hotel

Set amongst the shaded dappled groves of Sequoia National Park, Wuksachi provides an elegant approach to accommodation with a full-range of modern fixtures and fittings to compliment the sublime surrounding scenery. Throughout the lodge you'll discover rich strains of cedar and stone which have been placed to make the most of the enchanted environment, with floor to ceiling windows and snug fireplaces maximising an array of enduring natural images. A full-service restaurant allows guests to prepare for the day ahead, or recount events during the evening, over a plate of sumptuous Sierra Alpine cuisine; and just before you hit the hay there's a handy cocktail lounge for just one last cheeky nightcap. What with all that fine food and fresh forest air, getting a good night's rest is never in doubt and thanks to a good choice of hotel standard en-suite guest rooms, there's no better place to recuperate in order to do it all again at sun rise.

Great location and wonderful service. My kids had so much fun here and the location is the best. I had read reviews that complained about some of the drawbacks of hotel but I was really loving the hotel. We stayed in the Sequoia building and had a nice view of the trees.

The lobby had all the things we needed if things were forgotten. The dinner at Peaks was great too. I wish we had two nights to enjoy there but could only get a reservation for one night. Read less

Everything was excellent including the rooms at Wuksachi. Easy driving to various sites. Glad we stayed all nights at Wuksachi including the day trip through Kings Canyon. Room was very nice and comfortable.

Wuksachi Lodge is clean, presentable and relatively rustic, and is well worth the cost for the extremely convenient location in the heart of Sequoia National Park. The service was helpful and friendly, and we enjoyed having breakfast at the in-house restaurant as well as enjoying one dinner there and another one at the pizza deck. We had originally considered staying outside of the park in Three Rivers, and after having visited, we were incredibly glad that we did not have to do a 45 minute white knuckle drive twice daily just to enter and exit the park. And by staying at Wuksachi, we were also much closer to Kings Canyon, and therefore had time to visit both Sequoia and Kings Canyon during our 3 night stay. Please note that only the largest room class has air conditioning, so for a Summer stay it might be worth the splurge, particularly if there is a heat wave. We visited in late June and used the air conditioning to keep our room cool during the daytime, and at night we really just needed the fan (which is in every room). But if you're someone who's used to air conditioning, definitely get the largest room type. We would definitely stay at Wuksachi during our next visit to the SEKI national parks. Read less

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The food was surprisingly good. It was well worth it to stay in the park given the proximity to sites (especially considering the distance and windy roads to get inside the park). We even saw deer from our bedroom in the morning.

Nice stay. A little more expensive than a regular hotel but it saves you lots of time and miles by staying in the park. The actual lodging is in 3 apartment looking buildings named Stewart, Stillman and Sequoia. We were in room 103 in Stewart. Not the deluxe view as advertised. We were on the first floor and basically looked at a few pine… Read more
Nice stay. A little more expensive than a regular hotel but it saves you lots of time and miles by staying in the park. The actual lodging is in 3 apartment looking buildings named Stewart, Stillman and Sequoia. We were in room 103 in Stewart. Not the deluxe view as advertised. We were on the first floor and basically looked at a few pine trees and parking lot, which is better than the service road on the other side of the hotel, I guess. If you really stretched you could see a bit of mountain. That said, the room was very nice, king bed, desk, pull out couch, etc. Be aware the shuttle only picks up here on the weekends, so you still need to drive into the park. Read less
