Property was average at best, and, like everything right around this area, overpriced. About the only thing that really impressed us was that, if you check in with a pet, they give you a little dog bowl and a bag of treats for your pet (kind of a nice extra touch). Still, it was close to the Canyon (the South Rim Entrance isn't more than a half mile down the road), so you'recpaying for convenience and location!

Hotel is quiet, at least in May, and convenient to get to the park. Staff are all quite lovely. Room is a bit tired and very dark. Dinner was pretty good - we had burgers. Breakfast buffet wasn’t good at all - pancakes were from a mix, potatoes were very greasy in a bad way. Options for that area are limited, especially the food.

Easy check in, friendly staff, very comfy and great water pressure! There are a couple of restaurants/bars right on the premises so we didn’t have to drive somewhere for dinner after a long day at the Grand Canyon. Also, within walking distance there is a general store and a Starbucks that opens at 5am.

This is a local business with friendly, welcoming staff and a surprising number of amenities. The Wagon Wheel Saloon serves up drinks and lives up to its name (although it could use some healthier options on the menu). Morning buffet was good food at a decent price in a pleasant environment. I would recommend staying here during your time at the Grand Canyon.

Early this morning there were garbage dumpster trucks dumping trash right outside our door waking us up. Also, we thought the hotel was in the Grand Canyon Village which is was not. ( 4 miles outside the park). We had to scramble to find transportation to our tours and luggage storage since we took the train into the park and did not have transportation.

Response from Grand Canyon Plaza Hotel Management on May 13, 2024
Dear James, we do not have a dumpster in front of our guestrooms. We are very sorry to hear if the trash pick up was too loud this morning - it is absolutely beyond our control as it must be done in accordance to the Waste Management's schedule, usually earlier in the morning. Regarding the hotel location, we are located in the town of Tusayan - 1 mile to the entrance and 7 miles to the rim. We are again, apologize if there is a misunderstanding when you booked. We appreciate your time and wish you the best in your future travels. Thank you.

Dear Neha, we are sorry to hear about your stay experience. Please note that our dumpster was located outside and around the corner of the building, however, your room has an interior access and no view of the dumpster. We showed you arrived before 6pm and no complaint regarding your concerns though. Have we known of your dissatisfaction, we would offered you a room move or even offer a free upgrade. Rest assured, our management team is made aware of your complaint and we are working hard for the solution. Thank you for your time.

This is NOT in the park. We stayed first week of May and there were NO shuttles to the park. Apparently they only run in summer. Its about 10 min to the park gate, but then theres a line to get in unless youre lucky. The hotel itself is fine.

Thank you for staying with us Laura. We are located just a mile OUTSIDE the park in the town of Tusayan. The seasonal shuttle is operated by the NPS itself, and the park pass/fee is required. It usually runs between mid May through Mid September. At this time, we recommend our guests to leave early (before 9am) for shorter line to enter the park. Thank you.

Room was very clean. Spacious with a separate bedroom. Downside was ice machine in our building was not working so had to go to the other building but they did get the one on the first floor fixed. Onsite restaurant did not have many food choices and it was very expensive. A few miles from the grand canyon entrance. Has an onsite gift shop. Next door to the GC Visitor center. Food at the visitor center was also expensive. There is one general store in the area and it was expensive as was gas. There are a few steak houses around and a wendys and mcdonalds. The chocolate store across the street has amazing chocolate choices.

I had an excellent stay here 8 years ago, so I decided to return and see why I enjoyed this hotel. While my second stay wasn’t bad, I was also underwhelmed by the property condition and lack of amenities. The rooms look outdated, the carpet needs to be replaced, and having a balcony overlook the pool and bar area was unusual. Some rooms you enter from outside like a motel, and others you enter from inside and have an outside balcony. I’d like to see this hotel do something to keep up with increasing competition in a popular tourist destination. There was no complementary breakfast, the only hotel on my trip to not offer anything. There’s no gym area either. The location is good, about 10 minutes from the Grand Canyon visitor center. I didn’t like how it was oddly positioned off the main road behind another small plaza, that felt very weird. Overall, I’d stay here if the price is lower than other options in the area.
Response from Grand Canyon Plaza Hotel Management on May 13, 2024
Thank you for your return visit Justin. Since we are open year-round, we offer multiple rooms option, such as indoor/outdoor access or balcony. Please check with the front desk for availability or request in advance for certain room. Rest assured, we work hard to maintain our property and we offer a competitive rate. We are one of the full service hotels in the area as we have a restaurant on site (breakfast package available at the hotel), a saloon/lounge. We also have seasonal outdoor pool/spa, year-round indoor spa, a fitness (we are sorry you may have missed this). We also offer coin-operated laundry for guests convenience. A hotel concierge and 24/7 front desk are available to assist guests. We recently added 4 EV charging stations as well. These are just some of our amenities we currently offer. Please do not hesitate to let us know what other amenities you would like us to add in order to improve our guests experience. Your time and comment are appreciated. Thank you.
