We were so pleased to find such a unique historic place to stay. We had to find a place to stay at the last minute and I am always drawn to the unique vs a chain hotel. The renovations are stunning, especially the library and ballroom. Breakfast was wonderful more plentiful than the description given. The room was clean. Staff was friendly and full of historical information. Loved our stay!

This is a very interesting historic hotel. The library is a definite highlight! The room was clean and had no odor at all. Since it's a renovated old building, the space is a bit cramped, but it's a great value for the price. Breakfast was a bit basic, but overall a very worthwhile stay.

Our stay here was a highlight of our road trip. The hotel itself is beautifully nostalgic and vintage with simple modern touches. The beds are so comfy and the shower alone worth coming back for. The staff felt like old time friends. Thank you for the hospitality. This is truly a gem we are happy we happened upon.

The Historic Grand Canyon hotel's staff is accommodating, friendly, and efficient. The hotel's decor is absolutely impeccable. The room was sparkly clean. Parking on property was trouble-free. Arrival was just like coming home! Breakfast menu was delightfully varied.... Check-out was equally efficient, but quite difficult to leave a treasure such as this!

Cute place in Williams. Very clean and cozy. I loved the historic feel. The bed was the most comfortable out of all the places we stayed on our trip. No elevator so lugging my things up the stairs was challenging. Breakfast was simple yet good. I would stay there again.

If you are looking for a Marriott then this isn’t your place. If you want something historic, warm, unique with lots of charm and a great staff…..this is the place to be. Such a cool historical place to stay with lots of history from the period and creaky wood floors to top it off. Located right on the main drag with lots of shops and places to eat.

Our stay was awesome. The room was quaint, but clean and spacious. My only suggestion to management would be to add a small table for toiletries near the sink. The staff was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The continental breakfast was much more than we expected. Everything was fresh and yummy! Parking was convenient and the Hotel's location was perfect. We were withing walking distance (5 minutes tops) to everything we wanted to see. The next door restaurant was amazing. All in all this was a great stay and we would do it again in heart beat!

Road tripped with my husband and booked this little gem of a hotel last minute. Definitely did not disappoint. The hotel is clearly old, but the owners did a great job with the renovations while keeping the old classic style. The free breakfast in the morning was nice touch as well. The staff was super friendly and informative. I can’t forget my favorite part. The rain fall shower head. Sooo nice. Will definitely book here again if we ever come back thru.

This historic hotel is delightful, you can see the attention to details in the decor. So glad we stayed two nights. Beds were comfy, rooms are small as to be expected in a historic place. The only concern for us was you will hear others walking and talking in the a.m., so not a place to sleep in. Its perfect for the railway, two blocks away. I could see the stairs could be in issue for some folks for the upstairs rooms. If you like history and charm, you'll be enchanted with this little treasure. Its delightful.
