Mammoth Mountain Inn

Mammoth, California

Virgin rating

The hotel

Built in 1957, Mammoth Mountain Inn was Mammoth's first ski-resort accommodation and the only slope-side hotel at Mammoth's Main Lodge. Today it offers activities year round — in summer there's hiking, biking and outdoor adventures, and in winter it's a core skiers' and snowboarders' paradise, with the ultimate entry point to the slopes. Ski to the hotel at the end of the day and you can soon be blowing the steam off your hot toddy. Take a dip in the outdoor pool or one of the indoor or outdoor hot tubs. The Yodler dining terrace is the ideal place for a light snack on a sunny day and the great après-ski atmosphere in the Dry Creek Lounge is further enhanced by regular live music.

The towel animal on our bed was a cute and fun little bonus. The view was breathtakingly beautiful. The stellar service we received while there was refreshing and greatly appreciated. We will definitely be back again and look forward to staying longer to enjoy the amenities, food and mountain activities. Thank you Andriana for your hospitality and warmth. You made a positive, lasting impression on my family and I. Read less

After staying here for two nights, I agree with the other reviews which can be best summarized with - dated and dim hallways, partially renovated but clean rooms, beds are a little hard but still comfortable.

After staying here for two nights, I agree with the other reviews which can be best summarized with - dated and dim hallways, partially renovated but clean rooms, beds are a little hard but still comfortable. If you love hot tubs, this place has 3 indoor and 1 outdoor which are really nice to battle overcrowding. The review scores are probably related to the pricing. They ran a great fall foliage promotional rate which made it competitive to the ones in town and I thought it was a great value. The service is where it really stands out. Victoria at the front desk was such a hospitality professional and was kind and welcoming. She pointed out things that would make our stay even more enjoyable like suggesting to drive up to the vista point to catch the aurora. Read less

We stayed here for 2 nights during our honeymoon this septermber. All in all we had a very good experience, somehow there was an error with our reservation and instead of 2 nights they had only 1 in their system, but the receptionist was super kind and rearrenged us in a heartbeat in a condo which was huge. Yes, it could be renovated, but it was clean and very "mountain-like", we thought we were staying at an authentic mountain lodge. Food was very good, we could not appreceate breakfast that much, but I understand this is our limit, they served only american breakfast which is a little bit too much being europeans, but dinner was great and the steak and the pulled pork we had were delicious. The cherry on the cake was the jacuzzi, super relaxing and with a spectacular mountain view. I would defenetely reccommend this hotel. Be bear aware and do not leave food in you car. Read less
