Beds were awful… rooms need renovation
Restaurant was awesome and service was excellent… historic place and Hopi House gift shop a must. Nothing beats staying in the park at the south rim!!!
The scenery around the hotel is outstanding as the Grand Canyon overlook is right there. The bar is very small and hard to get a table. Property is clean and great staff. The restaurant is great.
Proximity to the wonderful views of the Canyon can’t be beat. The old school charm of the hotel and friendly customer service of the staff made our stay very enjoyable.
The property was just as described. Very traditional. It was very clean. All the waitstaff and check-in personnel were VERY friendly and accommodating.

The location of the El Tovar to the Grand Canyon could not be closer. A few steps outside the hotel and you are looking straight down to the canyon floor. The sunrise on the canyon and the starlit sky at night are brilliant. These are must see events.
