Make that trip to the Grand Canyon a bit special
Amazing. Great friendly check in and service. Food and service in the lounge was great. Breakfast in the restaurant warmed us after an early outing to see the sunrise. Real fires in thr lobbys and restaurant really added to tte atmosphere.

4/10 Fair

El Tovar Heartbreak
Staying at El Tovar Hotel was a bucket list item for decades and booked a night Friday 11/15. Arrived at 11AM and asked if we could check in early. Digitally checked in and was told I would be called when room was ready, but no promise before 4PM. Had a magnificent lunch (no res) with server Jack in the dining room, Jack - 5 stars. Checked back at reception at 2, room still not ready. Shopped for gifts and waited. At 3:30 asked again and was told simply, yes, your room is ready. No call - no notification. Strike 1 but room was beautiful. Had dinner res for 5:30, arrived and seated promptly. Server was Paul who was awkward and aloof. Mike, the server one table over, was engaging and friendly with his tables. Food left wanting - my peppercorn crusted NY strip steak was literally coated in peppercorns yet the steak itself and demi-glaze were tasteless. 'Seasonal Veggies' were some carrots and snap pea pods that were chewy and inedible. $200 for 2 adults and 1 child - unimpressed. Strike 2 Worst to come. Slept in a little bit Sat morning and arrived at the dining room at 9:09AM. Was asked if I had a res, which I didn't because sleeping in and assumed breakfast on a Sat would be served later into the morning. Wrong assumption. At 9:09AM I was told they were only seating people who had res and no more. Astonished I went to talk to the manager who said they were short staff and not seating any more - dining room was 80% empty. Expressed disappointment and was told SORRY! Strike 3

El Tobar was a gem. If you are going to spend time in the Grand Canyon, be sure to reserve the hotel and the restaurant for your stay here. You literally are at the rim of the canyon so you can enjoy sunrise, sunset and everything in between especially the evening sky. Plus you get an excellent restaurant with Gorgeous views and very rustic setting and excellent food. The staff was second to none between recommendations for where to visit in the park and enjoying some really classic drinks and food they were the friendliest and most accommodating staff I've met in a hotel in a long time

Great experience, a privilege to stay at El Tovar. Very Friendly and helpful staff at the front desk, the clerk smiled and greeted us, (you do not see that very often anymore). Beautiful place, very well kept. The AC is a bit loud, but after doing Rim to Rim it was ignored easily. Thank you.

2/10 Poor

The food is good but served colder than it should be. The property is a mass carpets are filthy. It needs a complete upgrade inside and out. The only reason to stay here is because it's on the canyon rim.
