The Amangiri offers an experience that’s incomparable. The location and the facilities are phenomenal. Everything from the design of the place to the surrounding environment create a place that immerse you in an isolated and enchanting setting. The only thing that dampened this feeling was the presence of children. A part of the resort at least should be for adults only. Despite the uniqueness of the place there’s a few flaws that should be addressed to make it better. The food is honest but the wine selection is seriously lacking. It’s inexplicable that an establishment of this caliber doesn’t have a resident sommelier. A qualified barista could also improve the morning experience. The service also feels a bit “green”. All the staff is very polite and helpful especially at the front desk and hospitality however the service crew doesn’t quite have the level expected for an establishment of this level. When we asked for afternoon tea the staff was mystified by the concept although it was something we had requested beforehand. Notwithstanding these issues,the stay was overall a unique immersive experience that’s worthy of the trip to this remote place.
A nice, cheap place to stay if you need a break on the road. The bed was comfortable, it had free parking right outside the rooms, the TV was nice and there was a fridge. The area is a little out, closest town with food is a 20 minutes drive to Page, AZ (which crosses a time zone and goes back 1 hour, just to warn everyone). The remoteness can be annoying but we actually quite enjoyed it as we got a great view of the stars. There were a few issues such as the coffee machine being down, the ice machine being down for cleaning and the dryer in the laundry room took AGES to dry our clothes, we had to put so many quarters in. The water pressure in the shower is a little too hard and my partner ran out of hot water when showering after me. The hotel had a slightly odd smell, I think it’s something they burn to mask another smell, not sure what though. It wasn’t an amazing stay but it is a great place to rest a while if you’re looking to not spend too much money.
ゲゲストSince we had stayed here before, we knew what to ask for: a room with a king-size bed on the third floor. However, we were told that the hotel was sold out and we were given a room on the second floor with two double beds overlooking the parking lot. We thought that was strange, since the parking lot wasn't close to full, but the answer appeared at 10:00 p.m.: three buses full of high school kids from California. They were bouncing off the walls until midnight. When I tried to call the front desk to see if they could calm down, I learned that the phone wasn't working. I reported the problem to the desk when I walked down, but the phone was never fixed. The next morning, the breakfast room looked like a tornado had blown through. (They stayed two nights.) The hotel is constructed such that lower floor rooms can hear ever footfall and other noise in the room above--ugh. We stayed three nights and had housekeeping once, although key items were not replenished. My wife had to make two trips to the front desk before she could find someone to get the necessary items (recall no working phone). Sleep was not in the cards, as the mattress turned out to be rather uncomfortable.
ゲゲストI was looking for an inexpensive place to sleep and shower while on a three day hiking and park visiting journey. I chose the Travelodge not knowing what to expect when I got there. I was very pleasantly surprised to find a very comfortable bed, clean accommodations and a small but nice bathroom. Sometimes you get what you pay for but I feel I received more than I paid for this time.
Great little motel. Spent 3 nights here, was pretty quite, people at front desk very nice and helpful. It is a little weird to have toilet and shower in one room, and vanity in another, but it worked. Coffee in the lobby in the morning, no breakfast, but I prefer to go to one of the local restaurants anyway. Shower was amazing, I finally figured out the TV on my last night LOL technology isn't my strong point.
