Awesome Hotel - can't say the same for the staff. The desk clerk (acne) lied to me on two things: The cost of the Jeff Harvey buffet "$20...". Not. It's 28 with tax = 31. Not cool. And - The $75 fee for incidentals "will fall off when you check out in the morning...". Not. Waiting for my $75 for 3 days now; probably won't see it til Monday - I hope. I must say we stayed there a month prior at the RV park in our motor home, received MUCH BETTER customer service there. Your desk clerks could learn a lot from those wonderful people. Again, great hotel; but apparently a front desk clerk who thinks it's ok to LIE to customers. See ya.

The hotel was very nice and the train ride was fun. The food options were lacking and really missed the mark. Food prices were very high and the buffet was your only option. The quality of food was way low for the quality of the hotel.

Best hotel in Williams. Though it’s separated by a fence along the southern edge of the property along the railroad tracks, it was just a 5 minute walk to the historic Route 66 shops and restaurants. It was incredibly quiet with no trains operating at night. Clean, quiet and convenient. It was easy to pre-check in online and provide an estimated arrival time. I would highly recommend!

It was an average stay, with very average features. Maid service is every other day. Everything is overpriced IMHO. However, it is within walking distance of Grand Canyon Railway. BTW, I strongly recommend that you book rail tickets directly rather than through a 3rd party... you'll save a lot of money.

Great place, nice people, good vibe to the old school hotel. The town is charming. Only issue is that you will be woken up multiple times by the trains that pass right by the hotel.

The staff and hotel was amazing. Im not one to write bad reviews. The dining hall was nit inside the hotel. You had to walk at least 75 feet. It was nit connected. The food i feel was a.bit overpriced at $31.00 a person for buffet...the beds were extremely hard. Did i enjoy myself...yes. would i return, probably not. We needed to wash clothes and they did have a self service laundry mat at the rv park. It was.resonable. $1.75 for washer and $1.50 for dryer.
