p.s. if money is really no object, the Ahwahnee sounds nice, especially if you can appreciate the hotel's history and, above all, the setting, but if the price might raise your expectations to unrealistic levels, you might consider Yosemite Lodge (it appears they have two types of rooms, so go for the larger ones), and expect an upscale motel, not a luxury hotel. Most people who go to Yosemite don't spend all that much time in their rooms. I hope you're not disappointed in Yosemite. It's gorgeous.
