I really wanted to support a local family owned motel in Kanab and so I chose Aiken's Lodge. At no fault of their own, the owners had to leave town and couldn't find staffing to run the front office. We arrived late in the evening to find a note one door to walk a few blocks down to the Best Western to check in. No problem, but concerning at first. It's obvious the rooms have been updated with new carpet and furniture, and updated bathrooms. However, the shower was still vintage 50's or 60's which was dissapointing. The AC unit struggled throughout, and was loud, and probably needs to be retired. As a way to earn extra income for the property, a food truck was parked an in business next to the classic truck. It seemed out of place. The location on the main street through town is perfect and allowed for walking to various shops and restaurants. Loved that! Finally, if the owners could find a way to create a public gathering event each evening - perhaps around the pool or the unused fire pits, it would have made for a much more festive atmosphere for guests to meet one another and share stories about their adventures in the area.

Great little boutique hotel in the middle of Kanab. Close to shopping and dining. Small rooms but were clean and well maintained.

Not bad for budget

Though the property was basic it was clean and the staff was friendly.

They were so kind and let us check in almost 3 hours earlier. That got us the time to get rest in comfort after active mirning.

Arrived to find sign on office saying that check-in was at The Best Western up the road, and breakfast was also there, and extra towels? Well you had to go to Best Western for them too. Perhaps we should have stayed there instead? The other kicker was that the great price advertised on Hotels.com was for one person occupancy! I was charged 3x the extra occupancy rate for the other 3 members of my family despite this being a two bed roomed ‘family room’! It wasn’t a good deal at all after that, particularly with the inconvenience of having to go to the Best Western for everything! The phone in the room didn’t work, the people upstairs sounded like a herd of elephants when they walked, the air conditioning units were old and noisy, the blinds in the back bedroom were broken and the curtains could not be closed because of the air conditioner. Between the noise and light, it was impossible to get a good night’s sleep!

1950’s motor inn vibe

Quaint and quiet

Nice and clean boutique motel

It was a quaint property, retro interior was cute! The shower floor needs to be redone. Beds were comfortable. Need to inform guests on how to turn off lights around the bed. Good breakfast at sister property. Windows need to be replaced.

Good

Stayed first day before camping at Zion National Park.

This was my second time staying at Aikens Lodge and it was just as great as the first time. The couple that run the motel are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is perfect. Highly recommend!

Remodeled and clean mid-century motel room and bathroom. Bed, pillows and bedding were really comfortable. The price was very fare and would definitely stay here again.

We like the retro look of the 1970 decor

We will be back!

The room was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Nice clean affordable motel. Was quiet the night i was there. Close to restaurants.

Excepting some initial confusion over checking in, it was great. The staff that helped me were outstanding.

Room was clean, staff was friendly.

We had the family room with three beds that fits 6 person. Clean room and friendly staff. Breakfast was in Best Western next door and was perfect.

Almost perfect. Bathroom sink drained very slowly and the shower had low pressure. Otherwise, awesome.

I’ve stayed at this hotel 2 times and enjoyed my stay bath times. The maid forgot turn on The A/ on in my room so I callled the front desk regrading the issues and not Evan 5 minutes later the apartment. Find y got me sch

Super clean

Love the 50s aesthetic! Beds were comfortable. Clearly not well staffed at all. More than half the rooms were dirty at check in, I'm assuming they're ALL dirty this morning at check out. Had to check in at the best Western and not F the property

Amazing place to stay with excellent service!!

Everything was great; room condition and cleanliness, staff, etc, except the shower. Shower tile around base needed bleach. Overall still a good value, and I would stay there again in the future.

Although retro, definitely can tell the place was clean and taken care of. It may be out of date, yet it was clean and the service was helpful.

It was a great place for the price. Breakfast was okay. Cleanliness was okay .

This place is way dated and needs more amenities.

First time we ever booked a hotel that had 3 separate bedrooms to sleep 6 people, very convenient, spacious, well maintained and stocked hotel room!! Will definitely recommend and come back if we even go back to Kanab!! Close to Zion and Bryce and other nice places to visit in Utah!

Great throwback motel in a great little town
