Better than a Capitol Reef hotel, Slot Canyons Inn is located between Capitol Reef National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park, as well as only minutes away from Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. Appropriately named for its close proximity to some of America’s most splendid slot canyons, Slot Canyons Inn also offers superb scenery on its 160-acre property, including the confluence of the Escalante River and North Creek, a two-tiered waterfall, ancient Indian ruins, petroglyphs and a private canyon. Besides comfortable accommodations that you will not find at Capitol Reef hotels, we offer our guests a lounge where they can socialize with other guests or use the Internet, a patio and a roof garden where they can relax and enjoy the surrounding scenery, and daily, fresh breakfast.
Capitol Reef is a wondrous cliff-and-canyon landscape that includes arches, rock monoliths, sandstone domes, pinnacles, and the Waterpocket Fold, a 100-mile long ripple in the earth’s crust. The most-visited section of the park is around the former pioneer settlement of Fruita, which is home to the park’s visitor center, remnants of the town and orchards. The Fruita area boasts 15 hiking trails that present a wide variety of options, from steep climbs to smooth paths over level ground. Trails vary in length from ¼ mile to 10 miles. Some of the most popular trails include Hickman Bridge, Cassidy Arch, and two narrow canyons, Capitol Gorge and the Grand Wash. When you visit Capitol Reef, hotel rooms nearer the park are not your best lodging options. Instead, stay farther from the park in our charming accommodations and enjoy closer proximity to other amazing scenic attractions.
For example, if you stayed at a Capitol Reef hotel, you would not be as close to Bryce Canyon National Park. The Slot Canyons Inn is only one hour from Bryce Canyon, a series of horseshoe-shaped amphitheaters displaying colorful rock spires, fins, pinnacles and arches. If you chose a Capitol Reef hotel as your lodging headquarters, you would also not be as close to Grand Staircase-Escalante, which is home to many slot canyons as well as major points of interest such as Calf Creek Falls, Devils Garden, Coyote Gulch, Dance Hall Rock and Spooky Gulch. In short, Slot Canyons Inn lies in one of the most scenic regions in the country. Call today to reserve your accommodations for what is sure to be one of the most memorable vacations of your life.
