We loved being on the rim of the Canyon. Although an older hotel it was meticulously clean and close to everything, trails, shuttle bus, food and gift shops.
Room was clean and quiet. Excellent location with amazing views. We just walked 50 feet outside the hotel and we were on the trail of the south rim. So glad we stayed here. We definitely recommend this hotel.
Our room was clean and bed was amazingly comfortable. Being so close to the south rim of the Grand Canyon was awesome! Glass coffee mugs and glass water glasses was a great touch!
Very clean room, great shower, outstanding view of the canyon.
Small family of elk in the morning.
Food at the cafe was quite good and not crazy expensive.

Didn’t understand that we had to check in at Bright Angel. Parking is a real challenge.
Thunderbird Lodge is a great place to stay in Grand Canyon Village. It sits between Bright Angel Lodge and the El Tovar Hotel so you're close to the restaurants at both places but have the peace of a place that doesn't have other guests walking through. Our room was cozy and had everything we needed and parking was easy when we visited in January. This place gets a thumbs up from us!
Staff was corteous and resolved an issue very fast. The room we got smelt badly because of cigar smell and they switch our room without making any problem.
