Where to begin? I have been enjoying the restaurant associated with this hotel for many years now…read moreon my visits to the area which is a treasure near Yosemite. The town of Oakhurst is my favorite as it offers great amenities that are the closest to the best entrance to Yosemite in my opinion. Lets start with the food. This is one of the best culinary experiences I have had and it is consistently good. The three course or five course dining service is stellar. These chefs are some of the best in the world and Ive been all over the world. The leadership of Erica is not to be surpassed. She has an incredible calm spirit with a smiling happy crew that provides top notch service with warmth and class. The bartender Jordan is a delight with his great smile and kind eyes. The food experience made me feel like I was being nourished from the inside out not just with nutrition but with love and flavor that was new and revitalizing. This was my first stay at the Chateau Sureau. Oh my heart. I feel that I was healed and restored from a level of stress I dont think I realized I was carrying from our busy crazy noisy world at home. The property is exquisite with old world charm and the perfect patina of age that makes you feel you are in the old country of Paris or Austria or England. The landscape is stunning and it was raining so the fireplaces were roaring and the pines were glistening with silver drops backlit by an incredible sunset. The breakfast service is top notch and the staff is incredibly attentive. You know its good when you know each others names. Thanks to Lorenzo, Sienna, Logan, Jissel and Lori for incredible Chalet guest service. Then, there is the spa. I just had to go since I was feeling like my life was coming back to my ownership again. The Spa is gorgeous. The spa. director Way has been on this property for 20 years. I had the best facial and conversation with her. What a treasure she is. Kim was my massage therapist and she is one of the best I have ever had and my son at home is a therapist as well so I feel qualified to say so. I got to spend my time in the couples massage room which has stunning views, a balcony that looks out from the hot bubbling soaking tub that you get to use after your massage. I had a choice of oils to add and we went with elderberry which is incredible for soft skin. Its absolutely wonderful. The small scale in size lent itself to making connections with other guests that were fantastic and I made friends here while staying that will last! I will be back everytime I am in town. I was here on a rainy weeks end and it added to the magic. I can imagine what it is like in spring when the gorgeous grounds are covered in flowers blooming. I cant wait to see it again then or even next month for the holidays! Some may say there is some aging to the rooms but I say its perfect and if you have traveled to the Old Country in Europe this is part of the actual beauty and experience. Relish it!!

Customer Service at Will Call was on point and I give them five stars…read more I came for the Zapp & Tuxedo concert. I didn't have my paper ticket, but the day before I arranged thru ETix to have a reprint at will call. The journey here was long. I left the Bay Area via Amtrak to HNF. From there I drove to Coarsegold. My train was delayed but I made it before 7pm. Parking was full. I had to park in the garage, luckily found space on the 2nd level. I'm first in line at Will Call, showed them my email & order number, but the staff had issues with their credentials logging on. I gave them my ID & my phone and another agent comes to log-in. She offered me a preprinted ticket in the center, row J. Thanks, but I would like what I paid for and that was row A. She had to login, that's ok I can wait. Yay, I got my ticket Row A seat 45. I was so grateful & happy that this staff walked me in to my seat. Like I had a personal escort. Funny thing is I had made a joke earlier that if my ticket couldn't be reprinted, a personal escort would do just fine and here I got one. Lol. If you see my first pic, you can tell the stage was kinda in my way. No biggie, I'll make the best of it. I sat there enjoying my non-alcoholic drinks trying to cool down. The group of the five seats to my left arrived, looked at their seats, made some comments & left. They came back as the show was about to start. One older man, got right in front of me as i was taking pics. When I tapped him, I got the look & some choice words. I think he was already plastered. I didn't say anything. I walked to the restroom and on the way back I stopped by Will-Call to see if I can purchase another single ticket. The nice pretty, petite lady handed me a ticket that was in the same row, but now I'm closer & more centered. I was elated as I explained the reason why I wanted to buy an extra ticket. The staff comped me my ticket. Wow, see how the universe works. Love it! So I walked back to my original seats, grabbed my drinks & began to walk off. Guess who blocked me & got in my way. Yep, that guy again. So I said, "Excuse me" loud enough for him to hear, squeezed by and walked right passed him so he could see I went beyond the rope to my new seat right in the center. No yelling, no calling security, no being a Karen, just lil 'ol' me showing him how I make all big moves in silence. I sat in my seat. A few moments later, a lady asked me if she could sit next to her mom, (in my seat), and I paused & said Ok, but if the person next to me shows up, I'm going to have to get my seat back. We'll just play it by ear, I said. Well that person never came & universe paid it forward to allow that lady to sit next to her mom. You would think that would be the end of all concert drama, right? No, that man & his lady ignored the rope and decided to stand & dance in front of me. I think the lady tried to start something by backing up against me. The security saw & kicked them out & the other three back to their section. Bravo security, Bravo. clap 3x. They tried again & this time the head of security in charge yelled at them "Get Back!" And they had to go back & they stayed back. Not only was that being selfish towards me, but the family to my right too. I took enjoyment when the head of security told them that if they did it again, they would be escorted out of the concert. Way to go guy! Way-to-Goooo. I enjoyed the show with a little bit more satisfaction after that. Tuxedo & Zapp took turns back & forth coming to the stage. Tuxedo sang all their hits, like the Tuxedo Way, Number One, Do it, So Good, & Shy. Great songs to dance to, get the party started. Zapp sung their hits, Heartbreaker, Dance Floor, Computer Love, Alright, I wanna Be Your Man, I can make you dance. Great dancers & musicians. It cooled down, but being near those lights that close it got hot again. Show started at 8pm & ended at 10pm. No sticking around for me, I'm not a gambler and IDK there's something about the casino crowd that is very off putting to me. I got my concert on and I was out. First time driving out of this place in the dark. Lots of curves and turns. Drive cautiously you never know what condition the other driver is in. Thanks Chukchansi

I have spent many years at Casinos. I love the Pueblo and Apache owned Casinos in New Mexico…read more There are many and they are friendly and hospitable, Chuckchansi is NOT. The Food is okay, nothing special But......90% of the workers and staff are rude or downright hateful. This business charges for everything. Each drink be it soda water or coffee is by the glass or cup; no refills. My family and I chose to stay 4 days in the hotel as our house was being worked on. Every time you leave your room and return you must show your Identification and state your room number in order to pass security. I purchased a drink at the travel center when I gassed my car, I wanted to take it to my hotel room. Security made me throw it in the trash before I was able to enter. I have a Yeti water bottle that was empty and I was going to take it to my room, security refused to allow me to take it in. The guard said I could only take in a water bottle that says Chuckchansi on it. I was handed a tee shirt because it was my birthday and I have a Players Card. The Tee Shirts only come in one size.....the doesn't fit most people size! To put the icing on this rotten cake.......Monday night my family wanted to go to the Buffet. I didn't want to eat but I wanted to be with my husband because he had just been told his Sister died. The cashiers (two) informed me if ai wasn't there to pay for a meal then I had to leave. The girl with the flashy fingernails was extremely rude and the young man working with her, backed her up. I tried to speak with either the Hotel Supervisor (left a message & Number, they never bothered to call.). Or the Supervisor at VIP/Players Club. He was too busy handing out ridiculous mini camp refrigerators to greedy players to bother with speaking to me. Tonight we had dinner at the Noodle Bar. My husband ordered the Beef Chow Mein and it was inedible. We let them know and were charged for the dish regardless. For 3 adults and .2 children under 12 the bill was $140.00. On the positive side, the big Bakery at the back of the Smokers Casino is very good and the prices are reasonable. We had the choice of staying in an Oakhurst Hotel or Chuckchansi. We elected to stay here at Chuckchansi and we all had terrible time. We are leaving a day early. I hope this review spares you reading this, an expensive unenjoyable stay at Chuckchansi Hotel and Casino.

First said they couldn't give us wine glasses, then found a couple of cheap ones for us. Never a smile. And a bit of frowning. The room is clean and pleasant enough. Location is convenient. Right across the street from the best restaurant in town. The canned music playing incessantly outdoors is headache inducing.

Reservations were made in advanced for a standard room with a king bed. Days before I arrived, the hotel upgraded me to a king suite. Claire checked my wife and I in. We were given a nice room on the second floor. The room was large with lots of seating area and a king bed. The bathroom was nice and had a fancy type of shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion. They have a nice gym with treadmills, ellipticals and dumbbells for you to lift. The gym was clean. An ice machine and water dispenser is located in the gym for the entire hotel. Breakfast is served in the morning at the Hemlock Restaurant and Bar. No free breakfast unless you have Marriott status. The Hemlock Restaurant and Bar is open in the evenings for dinner and drinks from 5PM to 9PM. Both my wife and I had the loco moco for breakfast. We both didn't like it, as we've had better. It would be safer to stick with the American favorites like waffles, French toast or bacon (or sausage) with eggs. The restroom downstairs is a modern one with common handwashing stations and individual coed rooms with toilets. The hotel was woefully short staffed during my stay. Claire who checked us in told me she worked a 12 hour shift as a manager left for better opportunities. The evening front desk clerk also worked a 12 hour shift as I saw him at night and in the morning. When they weren't busy checking people in/out, or handling requests from guests, they worked the restaurant with Cole, who was also working by himself. This was a nice hotel for me. It gave me everything that I needed for a quick stay. Although it didn't affect me too much, a few more employees working here would make things better.

There were raccoons going through the trash right outside our room, which kept my dog barking all night. I had to move the trash myself because no one was on-site to deal with it even though they advertise 24-hour reception. That's just not okay when you're traveling with a dog who needs to feel secure. The room itself was also in bad shape and there was feces on the toilet when we arrived, the A/C didn't work, the chair was stained, and the floor felt sticky. We requested housekeeping using the door sign, but no one ever came. I had to go to the front desk to get towels myself. I tried to resolve this calmly and even followed up by email. Instead of replying, they quietly took $30 off the bill and said that's all they could do. Honestly, if you're traveling with a pet and want a clean, quiet, and safe space--this is not it.

Granted if your visiting the area chances are your not spending much time in the room but holy cannoli ... Breakfast is not breakfast. It was to -go snacks. The Lobby is a throw back to the 1980's. Rooms need a complete overhaul. Carpet was old, tv was super old and small. WiFi was terrible. Old school heater/air conditioner unit. The room did include a Small fridge, microwave and coffee machine..that was cool. Overall design and furniture was very dated. Stayed two nights and there no cleaning service..not even fresh towels. Jacuzzi was Luke warm and pool was however the kids still enjoyed it. I'm we are not a fancy schmancy family but by no means was this worth the dinero.
