The Ahwahnee Hotel shines as Yosemite National Park's distinctive upscale hotel and it has been booked for over a year. It seemed impossible to get a reservation but by sheer determination and constant website checking, I was able to book not only the hotel for a few nights but also a cottage! It was a nice experience staying at the hotel because of the stunning interior design and architecture. I also loved that there were hardly any people around in the hotel which made me feel so much safer. We ate at the Ahwahnee Dining Room which was a contactless buffet where mask wearing was required except while eating. Due to my concerns about the dining room, we were moved to the perimeter table next to a grand piano that kept us safely distanced from all the other tables which was amazing. The next night, we moved into the cottage and we learned that we were staying in the exact cottage that President Obama stayed in! As soon as we walked in we saw his presidential photo and excerpt of his speech. The evening in the cottage was calming and very nice. When will we return to Yosemite???
