Property is off the main road, making it a quiet retreat from a long day of enjoying the national parks. The seasonal pool and hot tub are a nice bonus as is the 24hr coffee bar. Rooms are clean but not huge and while there, the elevator was broken unfortunately so luggage had to be carried up the stairs to both the 2nd and 3rd floors.

River Canyon Lodge was a well-kept and comfortable stay. Bonus points for complimentary coffee machine which even offered espresso. Perfectly located within walking distance to restaurants, and 15 minutes from Arches NP and 45 to Canyonlands.

Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The reception lobby was very comfortable with chairs and fire place for an evening nightcap with friends. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Be aware the elevator is not working. It was not a problem for us but may be for some.

A great value for the current prices. Not an old motel renovated, but more recent construction, renovated to modern. But elevator was not functioning, and stairs only at both far ends of building. Sinks drained slowly. But all other facilities great, would happily stay again.
