Had a great 3 night stay at Empeiria Grand Sierra for some summer season hiking in Mammoth. Room very clean and quiet, bed super comfortable. Best of all very nice staff. Will stay again my next visit up to the lakes

Had some confusion about dates when we first checked in but the hotel took care of everything. Had a lovely stay. The pool and hot tub were nice after a long day of hiking. Within walking distance of a bunch of restaurants and bars. The shaded parking spots are nice. Beds were comfortable and rooms were clean and furnished nicely.
