Very pleasant place to stay right in the Canyon de Chelly national monument. Convenient with helpful and friendly staff.

Terry, United States of America

Very good green chile stew (soup) with chicken. Loved the blue corn pancake. Grounds were well kept and landscaped. We had a great experience on our 4-hour tour in the Canyon with D.J. our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Anazazi and Navajo people, and he had a great sense of humor.

Poor signage to find where to register. Cafeteria food not particularly good and staff rather unhelpful. Hard to figure out logistics of using the cafeteria. No tv guide on paper, even though the guest book said there would be one. Plumbing is antique (but that is understandable, perhaps, since this is an old inn.) Sewage gas smell in bathroom.
Location at the entrance to Canyon de Chelly is perfect.

Bathroom very tiny. Noisy air conditioning.
The Setting was beautiful, away from the crowd, very quiet. Not a fancy hotel but enough for our two night stay. We took the 4 hour tour and it was absolutely amazing ! Had diner in in the cafétéria, comfort food, nothing fancy.

Aircon in room next to us was running at full blast (nobody staying) staff was not interested in turning it off. It was a bit noisy
Pretty average lodge. Has everything you need for a quick break. Of the three hotels in town this was the nicest looking one.
