Alpenhof Lodge

Dropped by for a short 1 night stay. Cosy place. There was only one guy managing check in/ restaurant etc. No available universal EV chargers in the town except for 2 other hotels, reserved for their own hotel guests.

This location is dishonest. I tried to change my reservation by one day and they wanted to charge me $50 more, so I cancelled my reservation. When I asked for a confirmation number for the cancellation, they told me it was the same as the confirmation number I had been given when I booked. They did not tell me I needed to call Trip.com to let them know it was cancelled. When I did not receive a refund, I checked on it several months later, and they claimed I had never cancelled with them and would've needed to cancel with Trip.com anyway. A manager never called me back. I have never had a hotel steal my money before when I cancelled ahead of time. Buyer Beware!

We would have preferred to stay closer to Mono Lake but didn’t see any good options. Our room was nice and spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful. Like Yosemite, we had to take any food inside because of bears. We were not expecting that. Be aware there are stairs into the lodge and then more stairs once inside. And altitude. Dining options within walking distance.

Although this place was very busy the room they put us in was like a dark cellar.It was at the back of the front rooms so you had someone on three sides very noisy you could hear every word people said . No windows to outside very very small dark room infact we didn’t stay we moved to a different hotel . We kept the room as we knew we wouldn’t get a refund and i wasn’t going to let them profit from it .Room 412 avoid and 411/413

The hotel has an appealing European alpine look but is a little outdated. My wife and I spent 3 nights in a small queen-sized room on the second floor. It was clean and comfortable. Considering it was summertime, the room was comfortable with the provided fan with the windows open. The design of the hotel's main building will require you to climb some stairs. The hotel is located on the edge of the village. It was a short walk to all the shops, restaurants, and bars. The drive to the Main Lodge and other points of interest in Mammoth Lakes was 10 to 15 minutes away. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The room had a small refrigerator and a generic coffee maker, which we used every morning, but no microwave. The hotel has a restaurant and bar, but we did not try them. We would consider staying here again.

Very good 5 day stay. Within walking distance of Bluesapalooza music fest. Decent price. Good amenities (in room coffee and refrigerator and microwave available in main building). Good cable TV menu. Comfortable bed. Clean and quiet in a scenic setting. Free WiFi and parking.

We loved everything about this hotel... the atmosphere, the location and the restaurant/bar. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was convenient. Beautiful town. Can't wait to come back!

The hotel is outdated and something you could maybe have found in Austria eons ago. We stopped by just for the night and chose it for its location. Never in my life have I met such a rude receptionist as the guy who was working there. Condescending, rude, patronizing and generally unhelpful. When my husband (whose English, although perfect is not his first language) did not catch something he was saying asked for the guy to elaborate, the guy very rudely looked at him with irritation and repeated exactly what he had just said. My husband then said “I am sorry for asking, but English is not my first language so sometimes I need to clarify somethings” to which the guy replied “yes, and that is why I am repeating myself”. When asked about the car pass through Yosemite he said “you can look it up online, but you should have probably down it months ago”. This was also not true, since there were hundreds of passes still available. The situation became so comical that I had to tell my husband that we check stuff ourselves from our room. Cannot comment on the restaurant as did not have dinner there.

The first person we encountered at the front desk was Martha, and she was wonderful. Very helpful, giving us information for the area, menus, and telling us to let the front desk know if we needed anything. The room was about what we expected having seen photos online. It has a lot of the original 1973 aspects to it. We stayed in a room with a king bed and a fireplace. We were lucky enough to have an end room on the second floor, so we had no problems with noise. Our bed wasn't terrible, though it was quite firm. The carpet on the floor threw us at first, since we don't see that as much nowadays, but then we remembered that the carpet is probably necessary for winter snow. The bathroom was average, again not terrible, but minimal in its amenities. The pool and hot tub were well kept, and the towels at the pool were helpful. We understand the hotel is dated, but even a dated hotel that is charging $169 per night could perhaps up the quality of the amenities. The towels were the thin, basic towels. The two bottles of water when we arrived were nice, but no more are given unless you pay, no matter how many nights you are staying. Glass cups would have been nice. Just two paper cups for coffee and two small plastic cups were given. Two tiny bars of soap were given for showering and hand washing, like basic motels give. We understand keeping the motel in its more original state, but upping the quality of the amenities can go a long way to compensate for the dated rooms. We've been to other hotels that have done this, and it helps visitors feel like they are appreciated for staying at that hotel.
