The lodge is an older property. Lots of history to the buildings. Room are adequate. The staff is exceptional. The receptionist at the store scheduled a 4 hr tour for 2 of us. Harold was the Navajo guide. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing stories of the canyon as Harold spent much of his youth growing up in the canyon. We especially enjoyed seeing his grandmothers farm where he was raised. If you get a chance, book a tour through the Lodge. The only negative was the cafeteria. The food was dreadful. Instead go into town as there are several options there.

Perfect place to stay close to the National Monume
Perfect location for a visit to Canyon de Chelly. Office is open 24 hrs/day and personnel were nice. Spacious room, older motel with some updates. The mattress was very comfortable and there was plenty of lighting in the room. We ate dinner in the on-site cafeteria both nights which was extremely convenient. Cafeteria staff was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely staff here again rather than a chain hotel in town.
