Hounds Tooth Inn

The Hotel to stay when visiting Yosemite National Park What a real find! Houndstooth is charming, unassuming, quiet, nestled in a beautiful canyon with well apportioned bedrooms and breakfast room. The staff were so full of personality that made our stay special! Just outside of Yosemite national Park short drives to lakes, hikes, and beautiful vistas!

Delightful boutique hotel Charming boutique hotel, large rooms, comfortable beds, great location. Enjoyed getting to know the fun and friendly staff who roll out the red carpet for all their guests. From the hot breakfast to the wine reception, I was beyond delighted. It was a short drive to Bass Lake and an enjoyable drive to Yosemite. I hope to come back every year.

Friendly and comfortable Perfect little cozy spot near beautiful Yosemite! The hostess was sweet! I would definitely recommend and come back again! Breakfast was perfect and the rooms were nicely updated. I love that it was a small little bed and breakfast and not a huge chain hotel.

Great place The place was great, the bed was comfy, the room was ample and clean, and the staff was really friendly and nice. Breakfast was delicious as well. We really enjoyed our stay and would totally recommend for people visiting Yosemite National Park.

Overall pleasant stay, but expectations need managing We had a pleasant stay at the Inn in room 5, the queen suite. The staff were lovely and the location was ideal for travelling into Yosemite (30 mins to the south gates). Parking was great. The bath was very much needed after long walks (it’s a standard bath, not jacuzzi). there were a couple of things that could improve: - the breakfast. On bookings.com there were beautiful pictures of fresh mixed berries, yoghurt with toppings, selection of pastries, which is why we paid extra to add it to our booking. In reality none of these things were available and after the first night we stopped going. The food looked and tasted prepackaged and microwaved as other reviewers commented. I would not pay extra for the breakfast and instead get some pastries from local bakery Bee’s and groceries from Raleys. For this I feel falsely advertised. - the room. Despite it being a queen suite it’s directly above the kitchen and reception/communal area. Every morning I was woken up to smells of fried eggs and sausages, which was unpleasant and intense. Due to the room being above the reception/communal area you can hear doors slamming and people talking. Bear this in mind when booking this type of room. - cleanliness. The first day the bins were taken out, but the bed not made. The rest of the days were fine but dirt was left on the shower floor for the entire stay. - the lighting!! All the lights were SO bright and so white, it was so hard to relax. The bulbs could be changed to something dimmer and warmer to create better ambiance? - exposed nails next to the bathtub which my partner caught his foot on - TV was placed literally near the ceiling, which made it hard to watch I think overall it was a pleasant stay but they could do with managing expectations a little so that they don’t attract reviews like this one (and many others) where travellers were disappointed they didn’t get what was advertised. If they were more truthful, for example not calling themselves a “luxury” hotel but instead a really lovely down to earth B&B, and made little improvements to their breakfast, then it would easily be a 5 star.
