The Grand Canyon Railway Hotel is located in Williams, Arizona, a town with real significance for road trip enthusiasts as it forms part of the historic Route 66, often referred to as the “Mother Road” and one of the most celebrated stretches of highway in the United States. Williams was the very last town along Route 66 to be bypassed by the interstate, and sits right at the meeting point between classic American charm and the Grand Canyon.

The hotel itself was built to echo the look of the original century old train depot, making it a great choice for anyone setting off to explore Grand Canyon National Park.

Guests will find plenty to keep them occupied onsite. There’s an indoor pool for a swim and sports courts where you can try your hand at horseshoes. Spenser’s Pub deserves a special mention as the hotel’s signature space, featuring a handcrafted mahogany bar dating back to the late 1800s that was shipped over from Europe, the perfect spot for a relaxed drink

Standard rooms are equipped with flat-screen satellite TV, complimentary wi-fi, mini-fridge, in-room coffeemaker, telephone, air conditioning, remodelled bathroom with granite counter tops, and hairdryer.
