Western Holiday Lodge

It is a nice location for Sequoia National Park. A short drive down the road offers a handful of different restaurants and shops. The pool was closed, but the river is just behind the hotel and probably better for a dip anyway. The room was spacious and clean. The AC unit seemed a bit old (and loud) but did the job well enough. The walls, or maybe just the ceiling, are a bit thin; we could hear folks upstairs walking about and turning their AC on and off. However, it wasn't a big deal, and I still slept fine.

Location wise it’s a further drive into the park but it is near 2 restaurants and few shops and market. The bathroom was clean, as was the rest of the room. The refrigerator was an excellent size. Blankets on the bed were very comfortable and kept us warm. Also the heater worked excellent on the cold nights.

We loved the large pool and sun loungers. Breakfast was waffles and toast and fruit which was basic but ok. An hours drive up the Generals Highway to the Sherman Tree hiking area.

room clean, big, comfortable

I know there are other bad reviews...maybe we got an updated room? But it isn't as bad as some made it out. Now it isn't luxury. You are staying for the location near the park. Our room was clean. Pool was clean and functional. Hot tub was out of order.
