Major disappointment
Our 20th anniversary dinner at the Ahwahner was awful. Fat on lamb chops has congealed by the time it was served. Carrot purée was dry. Ordered steak “blue”, and it was prepared rare/medium rare. Server was kind enough to bring an extra serving of carrot purée and waive the corkage.

8/10 Very good

It is a lovely hotel with beautiful views, and the dining room is beautiful. However the room was really warm and the thermostat didn’t seem to work. It made for an uncomfortable night.

Coolest place, even during California's Covidmania, the staff was able to deliver a great meal. This place is so cool, its historic rooms take you back to a simpler time. Great hikes and fabulous views.

Awanee hotel stay, NEVER AGAIN !!!
Check in is to late, checkout is to early. Front desk staff not the friendliest as you would expect from a hotel that charges $485.00 a night. The room condition would be great if not for the constant loud noise that come from the ventilation making it very hard to sleep. Will never spend another night at the Awanee
