The Village Lodge

8/10 Good
"Very clean and conveniently located hotel right in the heart of the village where you can walk to the various transit stops. Staff was helpful and cheery at check-in. Our room was very comfortable but faced the promenade which is loud in the late evenings due to the many restaurants and bars below (a room that faces the street might be more quiet). The beds were comfy. The parking was ideal."

Cinnamon Bear Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The Cinnamon Bear Inn is a quaint lodge that has a nostalgic feel of a time when Mammoth was a quiet town. It’s not the most glamorous or fancy, and I love it. The staff are incredibly helpful and kind, and the breakfast is top notch - it’s not over the top in terms of options, but it’s real food, not mass produced, and includes things like a little jar of homemade salsa for the eggs and spicy potatoes."
