The Wawona Hotel is the oldest hotel in the park and nearly as stately and scenic as the Ahwahnee. But it comes with two substantial drawbacks: First, unlike those listed above, it's about 45 minutes (27 miles) from the attractions of Yosemite Valley. Second, because it dates back to 1879, about half of its 104 rooms share bathrooms. (There are also no phones or televisions in rooms.) But it has character, and a nine-hole golf course as its front yard, stables and the Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias six miles away. If you're headed into the park from the south, you'll pass it about four miles after the entrance.
