Best Western Canyonlands in Moab was a perfect home-away-from-home for our 6-night stay while we explored Moab and the nearby area (including Arches NP, Canyonlands NP, Dead Horse State Park, a thrilling off-road adventure with Epic 4X4 Adventures, and a drive up the La Sal Mountain Loop Road that gave us a gorgeous view of Castle Valley). Our room was spacious with a sitting area that included a comfortable sofa, and a chair and ottoman. The staff is incredibly friendly and jumped in to assist with any needs or inquiries. The breakfast was a hive of activity with staff that refreshed supplies as they dwindled, helped to tidy tables and made every guest feel welcome. Things to note: There is a large patio outside the breakfast area that is open to guests any time of the day. This space is a great spot to eat breakfast, watch the sun come up, to check out the constant parade of 4WD vechicles that come though town, to people watch, and to socialize at the end of the day; This location is perfect for walking just about anywhere in town; Numerous restaurants were a block or two away; Free parking at the hotel was plentiful; The pool and hot tub were wonderfully relaxing and were in a private outdoor space with some tables/chairs that were either under a roof or umbrellas that provided shade; A locked bike room was available; The coin guest laundry room was very nice to have on-site; The entire hotel was very clean and well lit. Will I stay here again? Most certainly. This area has so many places to explore. I can't wait to go back, and now I know of a great place to call my home-base. read more

First let me say staff was super friendly. The gentleman doing the breakfast was super nice. But when we checked in they informed us they now charge for parking. They had no written or documentation of this when we reserved our room. We have stayed here once before. And we're never charged this. Rooms are clean but the tub drained so slow that you had to wait before the next person could shower. The beds were so lumpy and uncomfortable also. The only reason we are giving 3 stars is do to the friendly staff. Also we spent the night and morning listening to all the doors slamming shut. They need to fix this because people don't care to be quiet. read more

Overall good experience minus the one MAJOR thing that was out of their control. The hotel is big, in newer condition than most BWs, bfast was great, location is PERFECT for Canyons, Arches, and the cute downtown. The staff was super friendly (as I've experienced with most BWs) and we felt very comfortable and safe. Didn't love the tile flooring, but figured thats due to the sandy location. I would 100% recommend staying here....however my lesson learned/PRO TIP moving forward in booking any hotel is to ask for a non connecting room and/or to not be next to anyone. We had a connecting room with a dude, let's call him "Ralph," who came in REAL hot around 1030 PM amd proceeded to spend the next hour moaning right next to our door. We didn't know if he was having sex or pooping until he began to violently throw up. We tried to drown it out with the AC, but ended up calling the front desk to switch rooms. They were so accommodating and even tried to check on Ralph (lesson learned drinking and dehydration is a real thing). Moral of this short blib- walls are thin and I am a light sleeper. The hotel handled the situation perfectly... but from now on I will be requesting to be tucked away in a solo room away from the wild ones :) read more

Food was great - breakfast until 10am most days. Coffee in lobby is tremendous. Room was well appointed. Service and cleanliness excellent. Laundry room very handy. I never got to the pool or gym, but those are useful features. This was expensive, but not close to the REAL expensive in Moab - for that resort town, this was a good value. read more

This place was overall a great experience. We only stayed there one night, but everything was wonderful. The area seems to be very safe and there are so many restaurants, bars, and shopping areas you can walk to near it. The rooms were wonderful and very clean. The beds were also very comfortable. The lady at the front desk told us it had not been remodeled since sometime in the 1990s and it looks brand new. It's very modern and we had a very enjoyable stay. Also the breakfast was one of the best hotel breakfasts I have ever had. I travel atleast 15-20 times a year and this is 100% the best 'Best Western' I have ever stayed at. read more

Nice hotel, located in downtown Moab, within walking distance to everything. We really enjoyed their pool area and hot tub. The rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel has a fitness center and complimentary breakfast in the morning, it will help you save a few dollars. read more

Best Western Plus Canyonlands Inn - Hotels Near Me - Moab, Utah

We have stayed in many different Best Western motels. Best Western Canyonlands is definitely among the best of the bunch. We stayed at this one for 3 nights in late August 2022. Our room had 2 queen beds and was on the second floor, just around the corner from the elevator and overlooking the pool. We loved the room because it was clean, spacious and had plenty of places to work and store our belongings. The bathroom included a fully equipped room and an extra sink just outside of it. A fridge and microwave are available in the room. Breakfast, both the food and the setting, was outstanding. The selection of both hot and cold items was great. Among the hot items were scrambled eggs, cheese omelets, fried potatoes, and a breakfast meat. There's a pancake machine (somewhat slow), hard-cooked eggs, breads, cereal, yogurt, and freshly-prepared fruit. Attendants make sure items are available throughout the breakfast timeframe. Unlike most places, breakfast is served on the 2nd floor. Tables are available both indoors and in a wrap-around outdoor terrace (which is open into the evening). No smoking is permitted. There is coffee and cold water available in the lobby 24/7. A few things about this motel bothered us: 1) while smoking isn't permitted on the 2nd floor terrace, there's a smoking area just outside the front lobby door and smoke wafts up 2) quite a few electrical outlets were so loose as to be unusable 3) the room safe is located beneath a luggage surface, almost at floor level 4) in the breakfast room, plastic utensils were individually plastic-wrapped, a very wasteful practice 5) the A/C seemed to go off at night; we awoke a few times feeling very warm. 6) some 2nd floor rooms appear to be located in an area requiring access via half a flight of stairs All in all, though, we had an excellent stay and would definitely return if pricing remains as competitive as it was this visit. read more

Awesome beds. Spacious rooms... the 2nd sink outside the bath area is so nice...with perfect amenities like a built in luggage rack. Great desk chair. Pool was great... nice big spa. Great breakfast! Friendly staff. Washing machines which we didn't end up needing though we had planned to use. Great location... very walkable to good restaurants (Cactus Jack's a must) and gift shops. Would DEFINITELY stay here again! read more

This hotel truly understands the phrase "put the customer first". All of the stuff are very nice, caring, and helpful. Every time we would walk back in, we would always get a warm welcome from the front desk team. When we woke up in the mornings, we were greeted by Diego and his amazing breakfast team, constantly asking us if we needed any help with anything and taking our trash. PSA- this hotel has a pancake machine, not a waffle machine. The pool and spa were very nice, the Pool surprisingly being a very cool temperature on a 104° day. The room itself was very spacious, much bigger than a regular best western property. The room has a microwave, refrigerator, and best of all, its own AC unit. The bathroom and bath amenities are nice, and the beds are comfortable. The rooms and hotel itself is very clean, with housekeeping regularly, cleaning common areas, and the rooms. The hotel is centrally located in downtown Moab. Pasta, Jays and Gloria's are on the premises of the hotel, both are excellent restaurants. This hotel is the best option for travelers, traveling on a budget or not, to Moab. read more

This is a great hotel! We stopped at many hotels on our road trip throughout Colorado and Utah and this was probably our favorite. The location is great and it's easy to get to most things in Moab. The rates for a room in August were also very good and very affordable. The continental breakfast was one of the best we've had at a chain hotel and their breakfast potatoes were actually very delicious. We'd definitely stay here again when visiting Moab and it's a great hotel overall. read more

Absolutely loved it here. The room was very nice and clean, the hot tub and pool were open, it was awesome. The breakfast... I could go on and on about it! It was delicious. Easy check in and check out, plenty of parking, perfect location to walk to dinner (do NOT go to pasta jays it was awful) and around shops and only 8 minutes from Arches national park. The only con was that when we entered our room we saw 2 different black hairs on the coffee machine and the bathroom sink, kind of gross but compared to how much we loved it, it was nothing. read more

Another stay here, another great experience! Wonderful clean facility with great staff, can't recommend it enough. read more

This was a well groomed hotel with the friendliest staff from the front desk to the breakfast table! A gentleman who was overlooking breakfast ensured we still got hot food even though we were rushing in 20 minutes before they were closing it down! Our only qualm was the pillows. if you like super squishy tiny pillows then it's no biggie but i'd bring my own next time! read more

Our party of 4 absolutely loved this Hotel. It has all the perks! The wooden beamed ceilings and stone fireplace as you walk in are relaxing and impressive. There's even seating to read by the fireplace. They also have an espresso machine in the lobby area with decaf, caffeinated coffee, and hot water for tea. The place is decorated beautifully and the continental breakfast was buffet style with a wide variety of food. Additionally, we loved the size of our rooms....they were large, and welcoming. We hated to leave this place. Highly recommend! Would stay here again in a heartbeat! read more

Bring lots of money, breakfast is minimal, rooms are small at $300 a night, Tesla chargers on site, housekeeping is odd, they take pictures of your door at 11am, if not disturb is on after 11am no cleaning of your room. Hotel is located in the center of town, tons of restaurants and bars read more

First off, the staff was incredible. We went on our honeymoon throughout Utah and this was one of our many stops. They decorated the room and made our stay so memorable. This hotel is super clean. The hot tub and pool are so nice. The breakfast was delicious. The location is perfect for walking to the shops and restaurants. We'd absolutely stay here again. read more

Excellent stay. You will not be disappointed. Everything about our room is "thumbs up".. way up. We really enjoyed our stay here. The free breakfast is an added bonus! read more

I'm not going to make this a long post. Suffice it to say this is a really nice BW+. If you're looking for a place to stay in Moab, don't pass this one up. Nice rooms, friendly staff, good breakfast. Nuff said. read more

Stay was been perfect no issues with parking, check in, room etc we were greeted as soon as we walked in we were the only ones checking in at the time so we had her full attention. She checked us in explained where our room was provided us with some restaurant selections and off we went to unload our bags and go eat The hotel is located in a small town on their Main Street plenty of places to eat within walking distance plus during their open seasons their are plenty of little town shops to buy some great stuff. They were closed when we went in February some signs said closed for the season so winter must be a slow time here or covid not sure Our king suite was big enough for two of us with room to social distance the bathroom was kinda small the shower worked good but the toilet sink and bathtub is just to right in the space it's in the bed was comfortable but we o my had 4 small pillows which when you put together it may make 1 pillow. We did ask for extra pillows towels which was not honored and we did not ask again for them Pool / hot tub area looks nice small but nice small is what I like less people can jump in perfect. Plenty of lounge chairs around the area who Hes it was open we may have took advantage of it read more

We really enjoyed our stay at this Best Western in downtown Moab! Wonderful location within walking distance of many restaurants and gift shops. The breakfast was delicious and the other amenities looked great (wish we could've taken advantage of the pool, but we forgot our bathing suits!) Our room was well equipped and spacious. I would highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Moab and the local national parks! read more

The hotel was fine, breakfast was reasonable, location was good. The staff was terrible. We checked in, went to our room, and found out they had moved us into a handicapped room. Normally I would say "whatever," but there was no door on the bathroom. I don't want to be making eye contact with anyone while I'm on the toilet. Not ever! We went back to reception to get a different room. That started a 2 1/2 hour ordeal. It shouldn't be that hard. read more

This is an awesome hotel if you're looking to visit Moab. We stayed in the off season and the price was ridiculously affordable. The property is huge and very clean and comfortable. Check in was smooth and staff is very friendly. They have a great free breakfast. The staff in there clearly took pride in their job and were constantly refreshing things and cleaning up. They have bike storage. Room was huge and felt brand new. The location can't be beat- its located in the very center of downtown Moab. Perfect place to be able to walk around and not worry about driving if you're spending some time in town. read more

This hotel truly felt like a resort to me. Great location within walking distance of food and shopping. Hot beverage station in the lobby. Outdoor patio for guest use with fire tables and views. Very clean and friendly staff. Excellent big hot and cold breakfast options with labels for allergy foods and options. Well worth it for location and amenities. read more

Best Western Plus Canyonlands Inn - Our cute bathroom touches - Hotels Near Me - Moab, Utah

Fine but not wonderful and def not worth $400 for the night. It's an older hotel and the hallway and room had a musty smell to it. Found the room to be on the dark side; could use some more cheer. Our room faced the pool and could hear traffic going by until at least 1 am. Staff did cover the pool by 10:15 pm. Wouldn't recommend if you're expecting a modern super quiet stay. Pillows could be replaced as well. It was clean and walking distance to everything though. "Free" (pre-paid) breakfast options were omelets, fruit, and yogurt, pancakes, sausage, and potatoes. I put free in quotations because you know they factor that into the base rate. Overpriced but demand is high in Moab. read more

Never thought I would be giving a Best Western 5 stars. But Moab is mainly made up of 2 and 3 star class hotels. The workers at this hotel were very pleasant and hooked us up with a king room instead of two queen beds which I greatly appreciated. The rooms are updated and very clean. The location of this hotel is ideal. It is right in the middle of all the shops and restaurants. Beautiful pool and outside terrace to relax on. We would happily stay here again. read more

We spent 2 nights here in May 2024. The best hotel on our 6 day tour. The rooms were spacious and spotless. The front desk staff were very helpful and welcoming. The gentleman who hosted breakfast each morning was very accommodating and the food was delicious. A perfect start to a very long day. We highly recommend this property. The scenery at the hotel was so pretty too. You could sit on the balcony while eating breakfast and enjoy the awesome view. read more

We travel with our dog and made a reservation for the Best Western Motel in Moab, UT, online while on the road. In making that reservation we were transferred from the Best Western site to an alternative "reservation center" site. When we got to the motel, we were informed that pets were not accepted. We asked for a refund, but apparently because their reservation people are off-shore, the person at the desk could not help us and we were given a number to call. After about 30 minutes of being transferred around, we were informed that we would not be refunded, despite the fact that the motel was about 3/4 empty, because the original website stated pets were not allowed. In addition, just for the pleasure of talking to their "reservation center," we were additionally upcharged another $12. Yes, we made an honest mistake because the previous night we stayed at another Best Western that did accept pets. Needless to say, we view this practice as an excuse to steal from us and we will never stay at another Best Western again. read more

We came here because of the reviews and found them to be true. COVID diminished the stay a bit but the staff did everything right to try and lessen the inconvenience. Nice bright and helpful staff, very clean, good location, nice room amenities, and premium tv channels. Oh, nice pool area also. read more

My sister and I loved staying at this hotel. We visited Canyonlands and Arches while staying at this hotel and the amenities were perfect. It's so close to great dining for a quick bite between hikes and also has a great breakfast lounge. We would highly recommend this spot for hikers looking for a great spot to stay. read more

Like others, we were surprised by this hotel. Well maintained, helpful staff, a nice (small) pool area, and central location make this a good choice. Excellent COVID protocol by staff. The queen suite gave us enough room (good for families) and had everything you would need. Breakfast was sufficient before heading out. Really could not find a fault with this place. We were unsure about staying in the middle of downtown, though we did not hear any noise in our room. Being able to walk to dinner and just a short ride to Arches was the best of both. read more

Yuck!! Old dirty. Someone previously wrote' needs a refresh'. Needs a renovation!! This place got left behind when the 80's turned the page. How this place is rated a Best Western Plus, IDK??!! Go to the Best Western Plus across the street. $100 more, but you won't regret it!! read more

Great location. People are super friendly. The pool area is nice & the breakfast very good.

Terrible. Booked two rooms together Ava when we arrived one was on the first floor and the other on the second floor at the other end of the hotel. Rooms were dirty and we found items from the previous stay. The noise in the room on the first floor started immediately and went all night and all day for two nights. We asked the front counter to all the people above us to quiet down and she told us there was nothing she could do. The front counter was rude and not helpful Breakfast kitchen was the one positive to this place. So they get one star Save your money! read more

This was truly one of the best hotel stays we've had, and we travel a lot! Usually stick with Hilton or Marriott brands, but this hotel's price & the availability of a roomy suite turned my head. Man, am I so glad we gave it a shot! First, the front desk staff was top notch. Morgan is who we dealt with the most. She checked us in & later provided us with a map of Arches National Park & some suggestions for other terrific sights nearby. We got the Presidential Suite for less than a standard room at any of the other 3+ star hotels in the area. The room was superb. It was spotlessly clean, nicely decorated, extremely roomy, & the bathroom was updated to feel like a spa. I loved the pebble floor in the shower stall, which acted like a foot massage. There were ample extra pillows & bedding for the pull-out sofa bed that the kids slept on. The AC worked perfectly & kept us very comfortable. Usually I don't utilize tubs at hotels, but since the room felt so clean, the huge soaking tub was too inviting after a day of rock-crawling in a UTV, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The toiletries were nice. We used the shampoo as bubble bath. The double sinks in the bedroom were super helpful, as one was located outside the bathroom so more than one of us at a time could get ready. The room had several mirrors, including a full-length. We didn't use the room safe, or the kitchen other than the fridge. The bed & bedding was extremely comfortable, and the size of the bedroom made for an airy feeling. I really appreciated the lounge chair/footstool in the bedroom, which faced the large window with a shady tree & those red cliffs in the background. The room was a true oasis. The breakfast was one of the best "free" hotel breakfasts we've had. There was fresh cut fruit each day, really good eggs & burritos, and lots of other vegan & vegetarian choices that were kept well stocked. The orange juice was very good, too! The servers here were so pleasant & helpful, and the area was very clean. The views from the breakfast area were awesome. We dined outdoors in the shade each morning, serenaded by birds and surrounded by those beautiful blue skies & orange hills. What a wonderful experience! There are many terrific restaurants, pubs and ice cream/sweets shops within very close walking distance, as well as a lot of little shops & boutiques. Downtown Moab is quaint and we very much enjoyed strolling around to see the sights. We actually wished we had booked more time in Moab, if only for longer to enjoy the Best Western Canyonlands! Well done to the staff & management at this hotel. read more

I am a Hilton guy with more than 70 nights a year but the prices for hotels in Moab during the summer are ridiculous. That said I've found a few best westerns here in Utah that are by my standards amazing. This is one if them. Even when prices fall during the off peak season, this will be my new choice. The rooms are updated, comfy, quiet, and clean. The breakfast is hot with amazing views for seating inside or out on different balconies. Very of all the staff from the front desk, maid service, and kitchen were all extremely friendly and helpful. I don't have a Tesla, but they even have charging stations. The location is perfect for many great restaurants and shops in the center of town. Great place to stay at a reasonable price even during the summer. The pictures posted by the hotel are a good representation of the hotel. read more

We try to use Best Westerns as we travel...rooms are usually comfortable and clean, and staff is almost always accommodating. This particular Best Western has risen to the top for me. They offered us an upgrade to one of the family suites (which...was amazing ) for one night. The staff went above and beyond for my family on two occasions. The first was that we had to do some quick rearranging of plans (my son got pretty sick while traveling, and we weren't sure where we were going to hunker down). I did communicate with this hotel from the get-go (important to do if one hopes for flexibility) and they worked it all out with us. (Thank you!!!). The second amazing thing that they did was give a small gift for my son for his birthday. They made a card, gave him a small token of Moab, and decorated a bag for him. Thank you, Morgan and Quincy...you brought a huge smile to our family's face this week!!! This is a win if you are staying in Moab. We were able to walk to most places in town, the Slickrock trail was easy access, and the pool (while heavily chlorinated...bring goggles) was nice to relax in (so says my child and husband....I was out shopping, so I didn't join them!). read more

Great location in town, walking distance to many restaurants and stores. The pool is very nice with plenty of chairs and loungers. Beautiful hotel and the free breakfast is amazing. Great people, great service, great hotel. read more

There are two Best Westerns in Moab, so first things first, make sure you're looking at the right Yelp listing, the right hotel page, and the right booking info. Also, make sure that when you roll up into town and are road-weary and want to crash, that you're at the right Best Western. The thing is, they are about a block apart is all, just on opposite sides of the street. This Best Western is on the corner, and is probably a much nicer property than the other one. Technically speaking, it's a "Best Western Plus" an I have no idea what that means, only that it sounds like something fancier. I actually really love the other one (reviewed separately) but it's got a much more budget feel. However, I've not been since they remodeled it, so I can't say now. What I can say is that this one is a fine, fine property. With a nicer, rounder list of amenities. Scroll through those photos and you'll see what I mean--you've got a really nice pool and hot tub area, which is perfection after you've been out on a dusty hike all day. I also scrolled through the photos just now (I take my own advice) and noticed the Tesla electric charging stations. I hadn't noticed that when I was here a few weeks ago, but la-dee-dah, that's pretty fancy. Onsite laundry, a kids area, and even a bike room. I had heard about the bike room, but again, just saw the photos. There's a lot to this place. As for the rooms themselves, it appears that they've been remodeled recently as well. You have several options. I'm a normal Queen or King room guy, so I can't comment on the other ones. But when booking I noticed they have several suites, like 1/2/3 room suites with more beds. the Queen room is comfortable, well-decorated, simple, air-conditioned (AMEN! in the 110-degree summer heat!) and even though I don't spend a ton of time in the room in Moab, you'll appreciate the comfort. Really, it's as much about amenities as it is about location. This thing is smack dab in the middle of town. Right there in the middle of everything. Walk to restaurants, walk to coffee, walk anywhere you want. It's super convenient, and for that reason alone the BW Plus here deserves a look. read more

Ive been here for 5 days and I'm not going to lie this place is pretty good. I've stayed in tons of Hotels and this is one of the best.
