Travelers heading to Kanab, Utah, often choose one of its motels for easy access to nearby national parks and a lower price point. Most are located along Highway 89 in the town center and cost well under $100 a night. Options range from older roadside properties like Aikens Lodge, with a pool and a free breakfast, to new, design-focused spots like Best Friends Roadhouse and Mercantile, which offers a vegan breakfast and a modern feel. These motels are not luxury resorts but provide clean rooms, parking, and basic amenities for hikers and road-trippers.
Key features to expect include an outdoor pool (at Canyons Lodge or Aikens), free Wi-Fi, and a fridge in the room. Some, like Travelodge by Wyndham, offer barbecue grills and laundry facilities. The motels are within a 10-minute drive of Best Friends Animal Society, a popular stop for visitors. For those driving to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon or Bryce Canyon, these central motels offer a practical base. Be aware that breakfast is often a grab-and-go option.
