The El Tovar is an historical treasure. Our room was lovely. The dining experience was fabulous. Staff were very accomodating. The history in the place is almost palpable, with all the stories and quirks to make it all the more interesting. The location is unbelievable. We watched the mountain goats graze on the lawn while we had our cocktails in... more

You wont find a more historic, and astheticly pleasing place to stay in the Grand Canyon area! This place is a 5 star lodge in my opinion. It is beautiful, the staff is very pleasent, and the food is fabulous! The only downside I could find, was the portions served in the restaurant are too large. I had no room... more

We stayed 1 night in The Mary Coulter suite which I booked exactly 1 year in advance to get it. We were 2 adults and 3 children so suites were the only option to fit us all in. Firstly yes it was a late check in but we drove from Vegas so it wasn't really an issue for us, the... more

Spent two nights here at the end of October. Great Lodge. Great location. You pay for the location. It's worth it. Very charming hotel. Rustic. For the money another hotel in a different location would be a lot more posh but how many hotels are located on the rim of the Grand Canyon. The staff is very helpful and friendly.... more

El Tovar is located right at the South Rim. We stayed in a tiny, but clean room. We had been warned that the room wasn't big, and that was in deed true! But when you are at Grand Canyon, you don't spend a lot of time in your room, so it was fine. We dined at the El Tovar Dining... more

I had read other reviews and was anxious to find out for myself about El Tovar. For anyone who has complained I can't imagine why. You're at the Grand Canyon #1-that's an automatic WOW! It takes a lot of planning to get supplies in and out of that location so I expect to pay more. The convenience of being able... more

I booked this hotel two months prior our arrival and was only able to get a junior suite with no view of the canyon at the price of more than 300 dollars. At the time of the booking I also booked a dinner at the hotel restaurant and was given a 9:30PM reservation.When we arrived, we had problems to find... more

If you want to stay in an over priced hotel with rooms that are worse than a Motel 6 with paper thin walls and a staff that could care less about you then please stay here. My husband and I went here for one day on my 50th birthday trip...the one day turned into 3 when my husband got the... more

Surprisingly El Tovar had a few vacancies when we stayed in the middle of July. Our room on the top floor was small but well appointed, and as mentioned elsewhere there is no lift in the hotel. The quality of the food in the restaurant was good although on both nights of our stay main courses were barely lukewarm and... more
