Welcome to Canyonlands Motor Inn
Some days on the road are all about the destination while others are about finding a good place to stop, put down your bags and get a proper night’s rest.
At Canyonlands Motor Inn, you can do just that. Our motel in Monticello, Utah, sits on Highway 191, close to places to eat and within reach of the landscapes that bring so many travelers to this part of the state. Whether Monticello is one stop on a longer drive or your base for exploring the area, we offer a comfortable room and a practical place to begin each day.
Rooms Made for a Good Rest
After hours of driving or a day outdoors, the little things matter like being able to cool the room to your liking, putting a drink in the fridge, heating a meal without heading out again or checking tomorrow’s route on the Wi-Fi.
Our rooms include air conditioning, complimentary Wi-Fi, a mini-fridge, microwave, coffee and tea facilities, cable TV and a private bathroom. Openable windows give you the option of fresh air, too. There are queen rooms, rooms with two queen beds and king rooms, so you can choose a setup that suits your trip. There is no need to make an overnight stop more complicated than it has to be. Arrive, settle in and get ready for whatever is next.
Room for the Whole Journey
People reach Monticello in all kinds of vehicles, with all kinds of plans. You might be driving a car for a weekend away, bringing the family through southeastern Utah, or traveling with a truck or RV.
Canyonlands Motor Inn offers free parking, including space for trucks and RVs. The front desk is available 24 hours a day, which is useful when the road takes longer than expected. Families can also benefit from the motel’s policy that up to two children aged 11 or under stay free in their parents’ room. Traveling with a pet? Contact the motel beforehand to arrange your stay.
Discover Monticello and Beyond
Our location at 197 N Main St puts you in downtown Monticello. Nearby dining options listed on the website include Doug’s Steak and BBQ, Wagon Wheel Pizza and Subway. The Frontier Museum is about a nine-minute walk away if you have time to explore the town before getting back on the road.
For many guests, Monticello is also a starting point for a larger Utah trip. Canyonlands National Park is 41 miles away which doubles the fun. You can spend the day exploring, then return to a room where you can shower, recharge and plan the next stretch of your journey.
A Stay That Fits Your Plans
A family trip has different needs from a solo drive. An overnight stop feels different from a few days spent exploring. What most travelers want at the end of either day is fairly simple: a clean, comfortable place to sleep, useful facilities and people they can reach if they need help.
That is the kind of stay Canyonlands Motor Inn aims to provide. The motel is family-owned, with a focus on welcoming travelers and making their time in Monticello easy. Its rooms and parking are set up for the practical side of travel; its Highway 191 location makes it easy to find your way in and out.
If you are looking for lodging in Monticello, UT, you are welcome here whether the town is your destination or a pause along the way. Take the evening slowly, decide where you will go tomorrow and enjoy having somewhere comfortable to return to.
