The hotel

There can be few more inspiring places than Utah's national parks, and if you're hoping to capture shadows at sunset or hoodoos at dawn then the Desert Rose Inn provides a characterful and comfortable base to do so. Accommodation is rustic combined with modern amenities, including complimentary WiFi. Step outside and you'll be faced with plenty more sights, with some of North America's most iconic sandstone structures of Monument Valley, Arches and Natural Bridges just a short drive from your front door. Once you've explored the surrounding parks, a dip in the Desert Rose pool or hot tub is always on the agenda with a fitness room also on hand if you feel like you haven't stretched enough. From the delicious delights at Duke's Bistro to the warm welcome at the front desk, this is an amazing location to experience Americas' national parks.

We stayed as a family of 4 whilst visiting Lake Powell, Monument Valley and Four Corners. We weren't sure what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised. We had a courtyard room which faced sunset which was lovely. The room was large and clean and more than accommodated our needs. The swimming pool in the hotel was nice and the jacuzzi very warm! We also ate in Dukes which was good. The choices were limited but the food quality was excellent if a little expensive. There isn't much choice in Bluff to be honest, however this was a good choice. Breakfast is included and was a nice start to the day, with the waffle maker going down a storm. Really recommend for anyone in the area. Read less

I must be honest and say that we only chose this place because the wasn’t a Hilton property anywhere near! When you drive through the town, you are not overly impressed but then you arrive - stunning! Classic log build with main body on two floors plus separate cabins. Staff are lovely and welcoming.

When you drive through the town, you are not overly impressed but then you arrive - stunning! Classic log build with main body on two floors plus separate cabins. Staff are lovely and welcoming. Room is excellent with everything I expect from a Hilton but extra character. Separate indoor large pool. Breakfast hot and good. Can’t recommend this one highly enough - go and enjoy. Read less

The dessert rose resort it situated in a nice small town, although on main road you will not be disturbed by traffic as there is none. The resort it self is very beautiful for sure but pricy for some outdated furniture and choice of colors in the room.

The dessert rose resort it situated in a nice small town, although on main road you will not be disturbed by traffic as there is none. The resort it self is very beautiful for sure but pricy for some outdated furniture and choice of colors in the room. I would recommend changing the color of the towels as some of the towels look very old with stains they beige in color you cannot bleach was them. Breakfast was mediocre. Not continental. So if you are looking for a selection, this is not the place. They also have a code to enter the breakfast room, which we thought was very weird. No other guests would come other than the resort guests? The pool area was the best. We had a great time as it is pretty quiet and not many people in the pool or hot tub. I would recommend the housekeeping to keep doors closed when cleaning the rooms as small bugs and critters were found in our room. Read less

In comparison to other lodging in the town, this location was a step up in quality. However, they were a bit over priced in my opinion. It sits on the main road and doesn't really have the surrounding environment I'd hoped. Not a destination location.

A real find!! Located in a small town, this lodge was a real charmer. While the room furnishings were a bit rustic (stayed in the motel units), the room was clean and if an adequate size.

There is also a laundry room. Convenient to Monument Valley - an easy 45 min. drive. The adjacent restaurant, Duke’s, was outstanding!!! Read less
