It's conveniently located near the highway (191) and Park entrance. I stayed there for several days in March of this year. It's located within the Navajo reservation and the reservation has been under a lot of stress because of covid. I'm glad to help them in any way that I can by giving their hotel.business. It's also about expectations, everyone is under staffed, so I always appreciate the service staff who are working. It's also in a very small community with lots of inner locking relationships. The parking is easy and plentiful. They got me the type of room I wanted with no problem. The rooms were clean and nice. The Wi-Fi collection was fine. The room's itself had all the space I needed and a Mini refrigerator and coffee maker which I use. Everything was working just fine and very clean I was impressed with the staff and their willingness to try to help me in any way that it could. For example the junction restaurant is located in front of the hotel and they gave me sage advice about when to use the restaurant, which I listened to. The hotel does not have a hot breakfast like a lot of Best Westerns but they offer some snacks. One needs to read in me hotel amenities page whichever Best Western and really every hotel has a description of what they offer. I think it probably has something to do with the junction restaurant being right in front they have an outstanding breakfast lunch and dinner, all are reasonably priced. The hotel was great, recently priced and made for relaxing...
Read moreI recently stayed at the Best Western in Chinle, Arizona, situated within the Navajo Nation, and I wanted to share my experience. The rooms were spacious, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable, offering a pleasant retreat despite the hotel being in a remote location.
What made the stay unique was the staff, who were Native Americans, adding a cultural touch to the service. The surroundings of the hotel were okay, considering the limited amenities in the small town. There’s a restaurant where the locals gather, emphasizing the close-knit community feel.
Chinle is an incredibly small town, with just a Burger King, a gas station that also serves as a laundromat, and not much else. The hotel’s pricing seemed a bit high for the area, but given the limited options and my positive experience, I understand the justification. During my stay, I noticed I was one of only three vehicles parked at the hotel, highlighting the quiet and less crowded nature of the area.
Overall, if you’re looking for a comfortable stay in a remote location with a touch of local culture, the Best Western in Chinle could be a suitable choice despite the limited amenities...
Read moreThis is a MOTEL with exterior room entrances, not a hotel. Based on that fact and the drab color of the building, I would have never stayed here EXCEPT the reviews were decent and the only other hotel around, Holiday Inn, didn’t have queen sized beds, only doubles. I was skeptical so I asked to check out a room and was pleasantly surprised; the rooms are much nicer than the outside. There was no smell in the room I checked out (near the office, 100-something on the first floor). However, the room we ended up with, 300-something in the opposite corner, had a funky smell. Not horrible, just weird. And the reviewers who report about the lobby smelling strongly of cleaning solution are correct. The roll-away bed sagged and was old, but the main beds were very comfortable. No free breakfast but the restaurant was excellent for dinner and breakfast. The toilet in the fitness room hadn’t been cleaned for a while. Overall the place is survivable if you want to see the canyon. If you can sleep on a double bed, check out...
