The Grand Canyon is exceptional. My only comment is that when booking, if you need NO STAIRS, as my friends and I did, do not click 'yes' when the prompt comes for 'would you like a ground floor?' It's the basement! Ask for first floor.

This was one of the worst hotels that we stayed in during five weeks in the US. The staff were rude and unhelpful. There was no atmosphere in the place - It was a cold night and no fires were lit in the large lower or upper level. The property has no lift so all suitcases needed to be carried up the stairs to the room. There is also no support to help when you arrive. The restaurant was turning away people even though it was less than half full and the food was overpriced for what was being served. Would not stay here again.

Check in was good but not very informative. Beds were worn with dips in the mattress. Restaurant was overpriced for the food provided. Lounge was nice. Location was perfect. Refrigerator in room but no microwave. Hair on the bathroom floor.

It is right on the South rim of the Grand Canyon. You step out of the hotel and there you are. The hotel is old and Historic. Great building and history. Tiny room. No chair or desk. Tiny closet. But there is a fridge and safe. There is no elevator and although a bell man exists I never saw him. The best rooms I think are on Floor 2 and 3. Good luck hauling your luggage up there. Our room was too hot and the person at the desk had to send an engineer because she did not know the room had a thermostat. Which made us feel silly for not seeing it in the first place. This tiny room was normally $523 a night. Not what we paid due to Expedia and off season. The bed was a bit hard and shower was not good. Plenty of hot water and the coffee maker was great. Coffee was good. Restaurant was lovely but expensive. Food very good. Not a lot for a vegetarian. There was a nice area to sit in outside your room but the fireplace was broken and being mid winter the area was freezing. I probably would not stay there again but it was really well located.
