Located in Oakhurst, just 10 miles from Yosemite National Park, the completely non-smoking Sierra Sky Ranch was established as a cattle ranch and evolved into a guest ranch in 1946.

Guests can relax in the hotel’s great room, which features beautiful fireplaces and comfortable seating. The ranch was beautiful! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The common areas were large and cosy. They lit a fire for us outside so we could make smores by the bonfire which was a very fun experience. The room was comfy and clean with a large bed. The breakfast was continental and consisted of fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereals, muffins and bread. The selection was small but the food was good.

Close to Universal City, home of more than 50 shops and restaurants, this hotel in North Hollywood, California offers contemporary amenities such as free wireless internet and an on-site restaurant. An outdoor pool and hot tub is also available to guests. The pool, bar, the little store, and the restaurant were fantastic! We loved the buffet breakfast, and highly recommend the Taco Truck tacos by the pool. The lobby and common areas were exceptionally decorated and smelled amazing.
