View of lodge, El Tovar Lodge, Arizona, USA

El Tovar Hotel

Wilderness
Grand Canyon and South West, USA

El Tovar is a historical hotel on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. The hotel was designed in 1905 as a cross between a Swiss chalet and Norwegian Villa and today is a National Historic Landmark.

The hotel has a selection of different room types some with incredible views over the canyon and El Tovar offers dining options and activities. The location and views are what really make this historical property special.

Why we like El Tovar Hotel

When exploring the Grand Canyon, where better to stay than on the edge of the canyon overlooking this magnificent landscape? Spectacular views are a highlight of this lodge set on the South Rim of this great natural wonder. Walking trails are easily accessed from here and suit all levels making this a great base to explore this area on foot.
