The breakfast was better than I expected. They had hot food and cereal and yogurt. It was nice that there was a mini fridge in the room

I love the historic charm, with an updated bed. Got to take a soak in a real bathtub, one of my great pleasures. The dinner/restaurant recommendation was excellent.

This is not a luxury hotel and should not be rated as such. It is an old style motel and in that criteria I had no complaints. The key thing was that my room was quiet, the bed was very comfortable and the place felt clean. There were not any real amenities to the property but I was not looking for that. I checked in late and the staff was quite nice. As to be expected, the decor is older and put together by a color blind decorator but that really does not matter in a motel in this class. I would stay there again.
Offering outdoor pool and hot tub, the Dow Villa Motel is located in Lone Pine. Free Wi-Fi access is available in all guest rooms. Mount Whitney is 12 mi away.

Well located and appointed motel in the middle of a town known for its many movie locations, and access the back sides of the Sierra Nevadas.

Lone Pine is a quaint town, catered to outdoorsy people who love hiking, rock climbing, off roading, etc. We loved Alabama Hills and Whitney Portal (although we didn't get all the way to the trailhead due to a rock slide). The Alabama Hills Cafe was amazing, and the Museum of Film History was a must before you go out and hike!

What an amazing surprise to find this small town.
What an amazing surprise to find this small town. The ideal place to stay after visiting the Death Valley and if you are a cinema fan. The Western Film History Museum is a must, and also, if you are looking for a quiet old-day town with quite a picturesque atmosphere surrounded by mountains, this is the place!

Loads of fun! Great "base camp" for hiking. Loved the motion picture museum and it was fun going to movie road and hiking some of the sites of movies.

Enjoyed the town, especially the restaurants.

I'm traveling on a tight schedule; this was just an overnight stop. The town is small and eclectic, at the foot of Mt. Whitney, the tallest mountain in the lower 48. The town draws many hikers and climbers and caters to their needs. For a town of its size, there are an unusual number of dining options. There's a very nice museum housing western movie memorabilia. Nearby are the Alabama Hills, where many movies and TV programs were filmed. Just north of town is Manzanar, a WWII internment camp for Americans of Japanese heritage; the National Park Service has done an admirable job presenting the facility. Death Valley, and the ghost towns of Panamint Valley, are nearby.

We love Lone Pine.
We love Lone Pine. We stay overnight on our trips to Lake Tahoe.
The Eastern Sierras are my favorite mountain range. Have taken many backpack trips in them.
Lone Pine is known for having the road to Mt. Whitney Portal. Has many places to stay when getting ready and finishing the hike. Fits most budgets.
Be sure to check out Alabama Hills. The geological formations are amazing and many westerns were filmed around the Hills.
Our favorite place to stay is the historic Dow hotel. Many actors stayed there while filming their westerns.
Alabama Hills Cafe is our favorite place for breakfast. It's across from the Dow Hotel. Could go on and on but, I'll stop here.

Lone Pine has several nice restaurants within walking distance of the Dow Villa hotel. We ate at the "Mt. Whitney Restaurant", they really do have the best burgers in Lone Pine! The "Alabama Hills bakery" is also within walking distance with wonderful cakes and baked goods. And for coffee make sure you visit the "Lone Star Bistro" great coffee, breakfast and gifts. We tried "The Grill" but we probably won't be back, we didn't enjoy the food very much there.
I was in Lone Pine to climb Mount Whitney. As a "base camp", the hotel is well-located as it is close to the road to the trailhead. I could also walk the main street of Lone Pine to find a restaurant. Room amenities were just fine. Comfortable bed. Very clean. Fridge was cold and AC worked. WiFi reception in the room was excellent. A very fast and secure network. Plenty of ice in the ice making machine also!
Convenient hotel. Full-equiped with a Fridge, microwave, all kind of amenities (coffe, tea, shower and self-care stuff) . Very spacious room. Nice and clean. Shower worked great!! Super awesome bed. We park the car just in front of our room (plenty of spots for parking). Super kind and friendly staff. He helped us to reorganize our plans and gave us super useful advices!
The hotel is right on the Main Street of Lone Pine. It’s maybe a half mile from Whitney Portal Drive and once the road is open, you can make it into the Alabama Hills in about 10 min. The bed was comfortable and the rooms were clean and everything appeared well kept. The drive to Death Valley is close and it’s about 2.5 hrs from Furnace Creek.
The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Our stat was last minute, dye to changes to our Road trip. The town of Lone Pine was a pleasant surprise. Mount Whitney, which is a shirt drive was fantastic and if you're a movie fan, especially of westerns then this town has been featured in many.
The hotel is wonderfully historic! The local western history is apparent and displayed tastefully. Our room was comfortable. The main building lobby is a great hang out area, relax and visit. Staff were friendly and accommodating! Will stay here again!! Love it!
The guy at the front desk was super friendly and helpful. It's conveniently located to everything in town and to the Mount Whitney Portal. It's the cutest little dainty hotel and I'll definitely stay here again if I come this way again.
Nice stay with big room and confortable bed. We liked the pool, the breakfast and the cleanness. The hotel is well located before the Death Valley. We enjoyed the breakfast which was with waffle, cereals, fruits and coffee.
The woman at check in was very efficient and friendly. The room was extremely clean. I’ve stayed quite a few places during my travels and this room was one of the cleanest, even compared to the bigger “nicer” hotel chains.
Perfect location the Alabama hills and Whitney Portal.
We were undertaking a classic West Coast Road trip in Teslas, and the hotel is situated about 800 yards from a Supercharger.
Room was clean and spacious
Within walking distance of pretty much everything in Lone Pine - such a lovely small town! Really comfy bed, great wifi and TV system, good shower and lots of space. Loved the neon sign too.
The house was very clean and well equipped. All our questions were answered quickly and in a friendly manner. Would definitely use again for a hiking trip up to lone pines.
pretty much everything - friendly staff, considerate service, well maintained facility, excellent location. Hands down will stay here again if going back to lone pine.
