Very plain - that is to say ugly - on the outside but clean, spacious and comfortable on the inside. No frills - lobby is size of a large closet. Rooms are provided with refrigerator which is needed in the winter when all the local restaurants close doors early or are just plain closed. Management is nice and accommodating. Bathrooms... More

To be honest, there's not much acocmmodation in the Lee Vining area. It is in the middle of nowhere on the eastern side of Yosemite by a lake. We just needed somewhere to stay on our way to the amazing Bodie Ghost Town and then on to San Francisco. Murphey's was a pretty bland motel. Prices for accommodation anywhere near... More

We stayed for one night in this motel when travelling as a couple last September. The reason we stayed here is location. Location, location, location, location :-) 4 to 5 hour drive out from Death Valley, so we still had some time left when we reached Lee Vining, and it only took us about 20 minutes from the motel into...

Me and my family stayed one night at this lovely motel. The rooms were so huge and very confortable and clean. We had a coffe maker, a litlle refrigerator and tv. 2 queen beds , a sofa, a table. The shower was very good. Lee Vining is a little town near the entrance to Yosemite Park and there is the... More

The hotel does not seem to have been updated since the early 60s with an excessive amont of linoleum and formica, but that soon fades from view as the hotel's friendly staff and cleanliness become an overpowering force. Internet, although present, is non existent for all intents and purpsoes (34 bits per second is slower than dial-up from the early... More

Lee Vining is a great little town tucked in the Sierras, back entrance to Yosemite. Murphy's is an older motel, but clean, and friendly. Walking distance to all eateries, and small market. They have a refreshment room that provides an ice machine, microwave, and soda vending machine for guests. Only suggestion, request upstairs room, ground level rooms are noisy from... More

With short notice, I found room at Murphey's at a price I felt reasonable. I decided to enter Yosemite from the East, after photographing the sun coming up at the Mono Lake Tufa Beds. Wonderful experience again. Murphey's was an excellent choice, not fancy but quite adequate. Weather permitted using the deck in front for great family time together. Lee... More

We have stayed at Murpheys twice now in the last 4 years and from previous experience have learned to book in advance, which we would recommend in this instance. You can just turn up hoping for a room, but Lee Vining motels do fill up and it is a good distance to the next town. There are not a lot... More
