I had a unique experience staying in a Western cabin at this lodge. The cabin was spacious with comfortable amenities, and the views were simply stunning. The food options were excellent, but the prices were on the higher side. I found the service helpful overall, but be prepared for potentially high dining costs.

I had a surprisingly pleasant stay even though this hotel was a compromise after I couldn't find a spot at the South Rim. The North Rim's calm atmosphere was a refreshing escape. The cabins, while basic, were well-kept, and the views were simply stunning, especially during sunrise and sunset. However, the dining options were overpriced and the service left something to be desired. Still, I would love to return for the serene experience.

My experience at the Grand Canyon Lodge North Rim was unfortunately quite disappointing.

The North Rim cabins offer stunning views and a serene atmosphere, which is a major plus for visiting the Grand Canyon. However, the accommodations are quite outdated with some cleanliness issues that need addressing. The location is amazing as it's close to the rim, and easy access to trails is a big advantage, but the rooms could definitely benefit from some renovations.

Staying at the Grand Canyon Lodge - North Rim was a mixed experience. The location is absolutely stunning, set deep in the forest and just a short walk to the canyon's edge, making it perfect for photographers. However, the frontier cabin we had was quite small and could use some serious cleaning. It's the only lodge close to the canyon, so it has that going for it, but the value for money wasn't ideal given the cramped and dirty conditions.
