Top hotels in Historic Downtown District
The Historic Grand Canyon Hotel
Excellent communication from the hotel. Seamless check in! The only, really minor issue is parking. There's a tiny lot in the alley that fills up quickly, so it can be a couple blocks walk. It wasn't an issue for us. Overall, this was a cool old hotel and we enjoyed our stay!
