"Great hotel! Room was great and comfy. Decor was really nice. Nice helpful staff. Valet service was easy and very reasonably priced. The restaurant in the lobby was AWESOME. Had a really terrific dinner made to go and I ate in my room because I was preparing for a backpacking adventure in Yosemite and it was going to take some time to get my pack set up. Also the hotel restaurant seemed pretty popular on a weekend so I would recommend reservations if you are going! The ONLY complaint I have about the El Capitan hotel is the noise at night. Which I suspect they are aware of because there was a small pack of earplugs left on the bedside table. While I don't blame the hotel, and know they can't control the loud music, screeching tires, and sirens outside on the streets on a weekend night, it was still quite loud even with the earplugs. Since I had planned to go to bed early and get up at 4am to head towards the park, this was frustrating to not get a good night's sleep before doing a multi-day hike. If you are a light sleeper, please be aware noise "may" be a thing here. I say "may" because who knows maybe it's only crazy like that on a weekend. I stayed on a Saturday night. Other than the noise, I would give this place 5/5."
