Wifey’s Bday
Pros:

The Mammoth Mountain Inn has always been our preferred destination were there to celebrate my wife’s birthday. You cannot beat the ski in/ski out slope-side location and It is super pet friendly. The food is excellent and the staff is top notch. Brian, our host, was amazing. He made the check-in experience warm and inviting, and the process was lightning quick. His recommendations were always on point and we had great conversations whenever we crossed paths in the lobby during our trip. I always recommend the MMI to those looking for lodging and will definitely continue to do so in the future.

Amazing staff
Pros:

We have been coming over and over again to Mammoth Mountain Inn for their amazing staff. We keep seeing the same faces every year and it has always been a pleasant experience. This afternoon’s team (Brian, Hernan and Andi) has gone above and beyond. There has been a brutal snow storm with 30 inches of snow per day in the last few days and Main Lodge has been and will be closed. Brian spent a good 20+ minutes coordinating our move to another hotel in the area while paying attention to all the small details even before I mentioned. Thank you Mammoth Inn team.

Cosy Vibes.. and Hot Tubs!!
Pros:

This is a hidden mountain gem right at the base of one of the best ski resorts in the world. There’s a cosy fireplace right when you walk in, and the lodge feels are everywhere. Thanks to AndI and Josh for making check in easy and smooth (and cheerful!) and we even got to enjoy the hot tub (there are 4 of them!) after a day on the mountains. Another shout out to Brian and Hernan on the night staff who answered our questions and were like everyone else on property, friendly. We’re definitely coming back!

Iconic slope side inn with dramatic mountain view!
Pros:

As always, a fantastic experience! Comfortable, slope side convenience, affordable. Like “Cheers” a place where everybody knows your name if you take a moment. Friendly helpful staff do everything possible to make every visit an enjoyable one. When the airline had a slight hiccup with my skis and gear, staff at MMI jumped in without hesitation to loan me their personal gear and get me on the slopes day one; whatever I needed including gloves and googles! Special shout-out to Victoria, Weston, and Ben! Thanks and see you again next year!

Love this place
Pros:

We love staying here for the location alone. The beds are always comfortable and I love that they have multiple jacuzzis in semi private covered patio areas. Staff and service has always been friendly and accommodating every time we come here.
Ski almost right up to the front doors.

Cons:

A bit pricey for a Sunday night, but the location is why. Also wish they had microwaves in the rooms.

Mammoth Inn is about their Staff!
Pros:

Mammoth Mountain Inn is about their staff! The ski valet attendants provided outstanding service, the front desk personnel were always helpful, and despite being understaffed, the wait staff at their restaurant was stressed but always obliging. One name stands out above the rest, however - the ubiquitous MOLLY! She was there at every turn - as bar tender during an extremely busy private function, but serving other patrons as well, moments later being at a lower level at the little store selling merchandise, and then working on their computer system in an attempt to resolve an error with the balance on a discount card! The smile never left her face!! To MOLLY, thanks for adding a brilliant star to our trip.

The hotel needs an update, and cleaning of the rooms was limited to making the bed, a daily change of towels and vacuuming of the very old carpeting. We aren’t sure that the tub was cleaned daily because it was stained. The hallways are dingy. At best, the rooms are what you’d expect in a 3.5 star hotel.

After all is said, the staff at Mammoth Mountain Inn is what makes a stay there worthwhile and if there is an option for a remodeled room or an upgrade, go for it!
The location can’t be more convenient. And their wonderful shuttle drivers will safely transport you to the village and back with just a phone call.

Despite being disappointed in the room, it goes without question that we would return.

Mammoth Mountain. Hidden Gem
Pros:

The Mountain grooming was amazing with so little new snow. Excellent skiing. Recommend the snowmobile tour. Loved the Ski valets, especially Tom and the young man from Capetown South Africa. Weston McCarthy helped us many times with our boots and skis.The shuttle drivers and that program was very helpful. John Arnold was especially accommodating.

Great customer service
Pros:

You can’t get any closer to the lifts than this! And front desk staff was way helpful, on the phone and in person. Hernan, who checked us in, made it a great start to the weekend.

Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort review
Pros:

The staff at the Mammoth Mountain Inn was fantastic.
Weston, Kamden and Thomas were very helpful with our ski equipment.
Tatiana was knowledgeable and helpful at the front desk.
Nate and all the servers at the Inn’s restaurant were accommodating and efficient.
“K” and Irwin at the snowmobile touring center were professional and friendly.
In fact, the entire on-mountain staff including the liftees were very helpful and friendly.

The accommodations were good but somewhat outdated. But the beds were comfortable and the showers were great. The hotel room service staff was friendly and responsive to our needs.

The only drawback to our stay was that various establishments at the resort’s base, like the Inn’s restaurant and general store, Yodler restaurant didn’t honor the IKON Pass discount. Each had a different excuse for not providing an IKON discount.
IKON advertises that the IKON Pass discount is available throughout the Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort.

Very clean and comfortable accommodations, wonderful staff!
Pros:

I stayed here in mid January and had a great time! My room was comfortable and everything worked perfectly. Being only 200-300 feet from the lifts was heavenly.

There is a team that stores your ski gear overnight and they bring it out promptly and accurately in the morning so you can put you boots and helmet on right there in the comfort of the lobby. The gear retrieval team, especially Weston, was unfailingly courteous and always in a good mood.

This was a team I had no problem tipping generously!

Every interaction I had with Mammoth Mountain Inn personnel was above and beyond. I'll be back next year!

Beautiful stay
Pros:

First time at the Inn and I was so impressed! Our room had a little loft and an amazing view of the main chairs. What a beautiful spot. The room was so clean and comfy. The lodge bar and restaurant were great. We loved the pool and spa too. If you go and need any help at all Hernan is your man too. He made the check in so easy and when we called down to ask for some things he was kind and very helpful!

Big Lodge with a cozy, comfortable feel
Pros:

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay here. I usually come to Mammoth with a group of friends and we rent a house, but this time I was coming solo so I opted for the hotel. Mammoth inn is large, but it didn’t feel overwhelmingly so, or too corporate. It still maintains the cozy lodge feeling. I had dinner and a drink upstairs at the restaurant, which was great. Hernan checked me in, and told me that I could borrow some DVDs to watch, which I did. He also made me a new room key when I locked myself out. I very much enjoyed the convenience of my stay here and being so close to the slopes!
