  • All around great experience
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/03/09
    Just returned from a four night stay at El Tovar. My girlfriends and I enjoyed every minute. The staff was friendly and helpful. We ate three breakfasts and two dinners in the dining room. We were great both on entering and exiting. The food was good (not the best but certainly not the worst). Service was friendly and prompt. Only once did ...

  • Almost perfect
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/25/09
    If you're going to spend one night at the Grand Canyon as we did a couple of days ago, you really should try to stay at El Tovar. The location, right on the Canyon rim, is spectacular and the lodge itself has great historic charm, is well maintained and very comfortable. a major bonus are the elk that move in early in the morning to graze on ...

  • WOW, So beautiful.
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/17/09
    My husband and i stayed here and we absolutely loved it. It's only several feet from the canyon. It was so worth the cost. We loved going on night walks along the rim, being able to catch shuttle to anywhere in the park, and even see California Condors. We did not have to drive our vehicle anywhere. We relieved since we had already driven 1 day ...

  • A must see before you stop traveling
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/18/09
    This hotel was spectacular in every way. We were there in November, a perfect time of the year. The restaurant served a wonderful steak for dinner and a great breakfast. The rooms were decorated beautifully with fabrics and old pieces that made you feel like you were spending time in the early 1900's. Just an incredible experience with the deer outside eating and oh!, the gorgeous sunsets and mornings were something we shall never forget.

  • Terrible Restaurant Service
    By Richard, 07/21/08
    I didn't stay at this hotel in my last visit. But I would have to agree with most people experienced in their restaurant. The people there are rude. The hotel has the best location and view, no doubt about that. I guess the restaurant in the hotel wanted to present as an first class restaurant. If you dress less than causual, they probably ...

  • Died and went to Heaven
    By Deborah, 02/24/08
    What can I say the food was great, had the New York Strip steak. The service excellent and the accomodations were to brag about. When we ate breakfast the next morning, as we gazed out of the large window, deer could be seen walking gingerly around. It was great not to mention the grand canyon itself the view is spectacular and I have been there at least 6 times and never was it the same twice. A must see and stay.
