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.

We LOVED this lodge and would live here if we could. The rooms are simple, but highly functional, clean, cozy and comfortable. We loved the natural setting and incredible view, along with a plethora of outdoor seating areas to relax and enjoy it.

The pizza deck was delicious and a fun place to hang out, the indoor restaurant served fantastic meals as well. You can't beat the location, it is so easy to get to everything you'd want to see in Sequoia and Kings Canyon, there's even a shuttle. There is also programming-we attended a stargazing event and it was educational and interesting. Fantastic staff as well, they were helpful and friendly and had answers for any questions. Perfect little gift shop on site too, and they even have sweatshirts if it didn't occur to you to pack them in July :) I hope we can come back some day!! Read less

I enjoyed my stay. I wish it had been longer. I thought my room was very nice. It was clean and well-equipped. The main building has very good food and a gift shop. The shuttle comes right to the hotel. I also recommend booking with Sequoia Sightseeing Tours. The owners are wonderful and no one is more knowledgeable.

I'm so glad we stayed within the park, even though the room prices made me cringe and we reluctantly went with a smaller room four our family of four because it's just a lot for two nights. But worth it, as we were able to get to General Sherman at 8 am and enjoy it with a handful of people around, and hike Congress Trail mostly to ourselves,… Read more
I'm so glad we stayed within the park, even though the room prices made me cringe and we reluctantly went with a smaller room four our family of four because it's just a lot for two nights. But worth it, as we were able to get to General Sherman at 8 am and enjoy it with a handful of people around, and hike Congress Trail mostly to ourselves, standing among the House trees with just our family. We also had a bear sighting that morning! Then we could return and take a break before heading out again, rather than feeling like we had to keep going from one thing to another. The room was fine, just a typical hotel room, and as I'd already read that check in and parking were not immediately next to the room, that didn't cause us any stress. The pizza deck was great, a great view, decent pizza, and families playing card games while they waited. The restaurant was alright, a bit odd as one morning I got take-out oatmeal, milk, tea, coffee, charged for all though I was told to get the drinks myself from inside the breakfast buffet (including just pouring the whole milk from the coffee station carafes into cups). Then the next morning I was told coffee was complimentary, and another guest said they noticed the day before they charged me and were confused why. The host was not great at communicating. Some dishes were good but we all got eggs benedict and eggs were inconsistent (some super runny and some hard), and the pot pie is just an odd disc of crust on top of an okay cream soup. The portions at the restaurants were large, we had some dinner leftovers for lunch the next day. I saw another review complained that there weren't outdoor places to sit, but that may have changed, as there were clusters of adirondack chairs here and there, never had a problem finding one when I wanted to sit outside a bit. My favorite are the ones facing the restaurant with the mountains behind it, just magical. Overall, the location is completely worth it, and definitely have a pizza night if you just have one meal there. Read less

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
