The main Dining Room at The Ahwahnee will be temporarily closed until Fall of 2023. We are serving meals daily from the Winter Club room and Great Lounge. Certain locations on the Ahwahnee and the roof have scaffolding erected. The scaffold is necessary to repair the chimneys for our historic fireplaces. While we have gone to great lengths to minimize disruption to views, some rooms will temporarily have obstructed views. This closure is necessary to complete seismic upgrades to the historic building and a refurbishment of the kitchen floor. The park staff looks forward to completing these essential projects to improve and preserve the hotel for future generations to enjoy. Learn more at our Frequently Asked Questions page > |

The El Dorado Diggins Suite was at one time a private dining room, a cocktail lounge, and a chapel in the 1940s. This unique suite features a king bed and a sunken living room, large windows and a slate entrance way.
The Mary Curry Tresidder Suite - called the Queen's Room since Queen Elizabeth stayed here on her visit to Yosemite in the 1980s - is ideal for honeymooners and rekindling old flames. The four-poser canopy bed and grand bathroom make for a decidedly romantic space.
