Wawona Hotel

Wawona Hotel

Intimate Victorian Charm

Beginning December 2, 2024, the historic Wawona Hotel within Yosemite National Park will close to allow the National Park Service to conduct a comprehensive condition assessment on the hotel complex. The National Park Service recently undertook a roof replacement project on the main hotel building which revealed the need for more intensive investigation and assessment of the hotel, resulting in the cancellation of all booked guests December 2, 2024 and beyond. There is no estimated reopening date for the hotel. All guests impacted have been cancelled and refunded directly. Please check back for updates.

Operating Dates:

  • March 22, 2024 - December 1, 2024
  • December 13, 2024 - January 1, 2025
