Everything was perfect except two. -A Bar tab was made and charged to our room, which was not our purchase. -We did have a mouse visit our room on one night. Definitely a gorgeous Lodge with beautiful common spaces to relax. Comfortable with a feeling of warm hospitality. Loved staying at El Tovar.

Great place to stay! Fabulous view of the canyon all around. Perfect for our adventure from the uk. Despite comments online about the restaurant being expensive we found it to be very reasonable compared to Vegas which was our first stop. Food was delicious too. Thanks to the El Tovar staff team. We loved it
