Top Independence Hotel Reviews

Bristlecone Motel

10/10 Excellent

"They have everything you could need. Great place to reset. I ended up extending my stay."

Historic Dow Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"Horrible stay. No air conditioning on a 97F day. The room we were assigned also did not have a private bath - which was news to us. Their website did not disclose that tidbit of information. So we shared two toilets down the hall and one shower stall with 22 other rooms. (!) When we asked if we coukd upgrade to a room with AC, we were told they had plenty available - but we would have to pay triple the price. Really!? We did not even think to ask if a hotel room in the desert Southwest would have AC. Beware! These were but two of the disappointments. Take NOTHING for granted."

Quality Inn Lone Pine Near Mount Whitney

6/10 Okay

"The staff was wonderful, but I wish we had been informed earlier about the pool renovation. We were asked upon arrival if we wanted to cancel our reservation because the pool was being renovated. Unfortunately, that wasn’t really an option for us since we were already there and had booked three rooms. It would have been much more helpful to receive notice at least a day in advance so we could have planned accordingly. We were a little disappointed, especially because the kids were so excited to swim. Other than that, our experience was good, and the staff was very accommodating."
