Best Western Plus Yosemite Way Station | Yosemite National Park, California | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Yosemite National Park, California

3 stars

Gold Country? Yosemite? Cutesy Mariposa itself? Whatever your excuse for visiting the region, Best Western Plus Yosemite Way Station acts as an ‘access all areas’ base. Right on Highway 140, it’s near Mariposa’s dining and shopping, and within two miles of California Mining and Mineral Museum and the History Center’s gold panning, a throwback to the gold rush days. Keep driving and you’ll arrive in Yosemite National Park, just over 30 miles from the hotel, or Sierra National Forest, a little further away. Before you head out each day, fill up with hot breakfast treats, waffles, muffins, and naughty pastries. And, when you get back, you can make the most of the tennis courts, complimentary WiFi and seasonal swimming pool and hot tub.

“The on duty lady manager very 'cold' and unwilling to understand the problem.”

1. The airconditioner/Heater Unit is very loud. 2. The king size bed is very soft. 3. Staff members are insensitive in understanding the problem. Instead they say "everything is normal"

“Loved our stay at the Best Western in Mariposa”

Sep 29, 2025Juli K

We chose to stay at the Best Western in Mariposa while visiting Yosemite. It was about a 45 minute, very scenic drive along the Merset River from the El Portal exit at Yosemite. Liz at check in was a doll! She recommended two restaurants, a farm to table restaurant & a barbecue restaurant. We tried the barbecue place, Smokin’ Oak. Liz definitely did not steer us wrong! The ribs were AMAZING, so tender, flavorful & full of meat. I have been trying to find a new housekeeper but I am particular & haven’t found anyone that cleans as well as I do. I would definitely hire the housekeeping staff from the Best Western Mariposa to clean my house! Our room was immaculate! The tub & tub walls sparkled, the bedding was snowy white, there was no dust on anything, not even the light fixtures or under the air conditioner! My husband & I travel quite a bit & this was one of the cleanest hotels we have ever stayed in. The complimentary breakfast the next morning was delicious & the dining room was also spotless! They had real plates, knifes, forks & spoons. We had sausage, biscuits & gravy, eggs & the best hash browns I have ever had on a buffet. I like weak coffee so I was really impressed that the coffee maker had an option for mild, medium or bold coffee with a touch of a button. The only negative about our stay is the shower head is fairly low which was a bit of a challenge for my tall husband. It also took a good while for the water to heat up & the water pressure was not very strong. Mariposa is an adorable, quant town & I would highly recommend staying at the Best Western in Mariposa!
