Incredible views, comfortable beds, great staff. Dinner was very good. The breakfast selections will give you some sustenance for the day, I will bring a few healthy snacks when we return. The view from our balcony was outstanding. The sun rising is so magnificent! We enjoyed our stay. This land is sacred, and we felt it.

It's the views!!! Mother Nature's incredible creations are the reason to visit Monument Valley. We stayed in one of the valley front cabins. It was small, cramped and rustic but the deck was front and center to the amazing views of the mesas, buttes and the valley below. Stay for the vistas, the sunrise and sunset. Take a tour or two with Navajo guides to really learn the history, significance and ceremonial importance of this place. The food in the restaurant is marginal but you don't go here for the cuisine.

Wonderful view but everything is overpriced and nothing special.

This is our third and LAST time to stay at the View hotel. GREAT VIEW of the mittens, that’s the only good thing. You can’t check into your room till 4pm. The price of rooms has consistently increased to well beyond what they are worth. Additionally they gouge you whenever they can. A resort fee is now added. Of course they give you a $20 credit for the gift shop but everything there is 3 to 10 times the price it should be. The restaurant is always a pleasure as there is no place else to eat. We waited half an hour for a table even though there were unused sections of the restaurant with empty tables. A bowl of the local “stew” was $25. In reality it was a small bowl of soup. Mostly liquid. In a four or five star restaurant this would be $10 or $12. Service as usual was non-existent. Stay some place else. Drive in, pay the park fee and enjoy the majesty of the rocks. Take the scenic tour with a sturdy car or truck. You’ll enjoy that part. The View Hotel no so much.

Premium Cabin

I stayed here once before for 1 night in a hotel room, this time 3 nights in one of the Premium Cabins. The cabins are nice but be warned they are tiny and the only place I could find to open my suitcase was in the closet-sized room with the 2 bunk beds. It was also rather dusty in the cabin but this is the desert after all. There is a K-cup machine, mini fridge and microwave. The fridge was not turned on but I turned it on and it worked well though very noisy. Housekeeping didn't come every day and they didn't really seem to do anything other than empty the garbage. Not getting housekeeping also meant the K cups were not restocked, but I had brought some of my own so that helped. The porch is a lovely space that probably functions as a second room in good weather but it was too cold to really spend much time on the porch while I was there. You are here for the views and this place delivers on that for sure. To see sunrise I recommend starting to look outside about 20 minutes prior to the official sunrise time, from 20 to 10 minutes prior is when the sky looked the prettiest. What you don't see in the photos is the dozens of people milling about outside the cabins at sunrise, sometimes with their yelling children, so don't worry you will be awake for the sunrise. The staff in the office for the Cabins is outstanding, they accommodated a couple of special requests.

The view from the room of the valley is truly spectacular. The rooms were modern and well appointed and everything was clean and well maintained. Check in was quick and efficient. We were on the first floor and the view was indeed awesome. Beautiful sky at night and sunrise was incredible. Restaurant was functional, nothing spectacular, Bring your own alcohol if you want to enjoy the view with a glass of wine, none sold here.
