Lodging In & Near Death Valley

Death Valley National Park in California is one of the most extreme and diverse locations on earth.  Temperatures here can range from 40 degrees F during winter to 115 degrees F during the summer months.  In addition, Death Valley National Park has some of the most diverse altitudes anywhere:  The elevation at Badwater is the lowest in North America at 282 feet below sea level, and the elevation at Mahogany Flat stretches all the way to 8200 feet above sea level.  Because of these dramatic differences in climate and elevation, Death Valley National Park is one of the most spectacular parks to visit in the United States.  There are several different Death Valley hotels one can choose from when planning a vacation to this incredible park.

When deciding which of the Death Valley hotels to stay in, one must first decide whether they would like to stay within the park or outside the park.  Inside the park, there are several options to choose from:  Furnace Creek Inn, Furnace Creek Ranch & Resort, Stovepipe Wells Village, and Panamint Springs Resort.  Furnace Creek Inn is an upscale property located in the middle of the park near the Furnace Creek Visitor center.  It is the finest of the Death Valley hotels.

Nearby, those with small children might like to stay at the Furnace Creek Ranch & Resort, a more economical and family-friendly property.  Located also in the middle of the park about 24 miles northwest of Furnace Creek lies Stovepipe Wells Village, another of the family-friendly hotels in Death Valley.  If visitors are entering the park from the west side, they may find it convenient to stay at the Panamint Springs Resort, located 10 miles inside the west entrance on Highway 190.

If visitors would rather stay outside the park, there are many Death Valley hotels within a short distance.  The Stagecoach Hotel & Casino and the El Portal Motel are both located outside the east entrance of Death Valley National Park in the town of Beatty, NV.  Both hotels are economical and will provide all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay near Death Valley.  Located in the town of Death Valley Junction, just east of the park on Highway 190 is the Amargosa Opera House & Hotel, a very unique and historic property.  In the 1960s, a woman named Marta Beckett transformed an old dance hall into the beautiful and intimate Opera House & Hotel in the desert, making it one of the most interesting Death Valley hotels in existence today.
