If you’re visiting the Grand Canyon, staying at the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel and taking the train and canyon tour is an experience we’ll never forget. The hotel was fantastic—clean, comfortable, and the perfect place to relax before and after exploring. The staff was friendly and everything felt well organized from the moment we arrived. The train ride to the canyon was one of the highlights of the trip. It felt like stepping back in time, with great entertainment and beautiful views along the way. It made the journey part of the adventure instead of just transportation. Once we arrived, the bus tour around the canyon was incredible. Our guide shared so much interesting history and took us to several breathtaking viewpoints we never would have known to visit on our own. Every stop fel

I stayed at the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel and took the grand tour bus to the canyon. The staff was friendly. The views were spectacular and the bus spared us from too much time on our feet. Everything was timed so you had to keep your eye on your watch so that you were not late for the train or the bus. My day was wonderful.

We stayed here and took the train to the Grand Canyon. Our pkg included an overnight stay before and after our trip to the canyon, train ride, Wild West production, meals at Fred Harvey Restaurant, overnight at Maswik at the Canyon and spendable coupons at the gift shop. The trip is excellent! Organization and service is top notch. Hotel has a lot of amenities! Rooms were comfortable but not as highend as I was expecting. Overall a recommendable trip and stay.

Good spot to rest before heading towards Grand Canyon. Nice little hotel lobby with fire place. The rooms are a bit dated but fine for an overnight stay. Lots of parking.

My stay at Grand Canyon Railway Hotel, overall, was a really solid experience. The train ride was honestly the highlight. I had never been on a real train before, so that alone made it memorable. It’s not just transportation — it feels like you’re stepping into a different era. The ride was smooth, well organized, and the whole experience added something special instead of just being a way to get from point A to point B. I also hadn’t been to the Grand Canyon in about 20 years, and seeing it again reminds you how unreal it actually is. It’s massive, raw, and straight-up powerful. Not sentimental — just nature showing off. The scale of it is wild, and it still hits just as hard decades later. As for the hotel, it was better than I expected. It’s not luxury-resort flashy, but it’s very we
