We stayed in a downstairs room and could hear every footstep from upstairs... So if you value quiet get an upstairs room ! The rooms were clean and the bed comfy. The internet somehow didn't 'reach' our room as I couldn't even see the network on my iPhone. We could pick it up after dinner on an iPad but it... More

As anyone who's traveled much in the Four Corners region will tell you, there aren't a lot of great places to stay or to eat, so we found the Hat Rock in in Mexican Hat a nice surprise, particularly after my father in law said something along the lines of "Do NOT stay anywhere in Mexican Hat!" Based on a... More

There are not many possibilities to find a affordable motel in Monument Valley. Hat Rock Inn is definitely one. Cosy rooms. Try to have a room at the (quiet) back of the hotel to have a nice view and the river. Tip: walk 5 minutes and have a nice meal at The Swinging Steak. The owner at the bbq has... More

Good location in the middle of the small Mexican Hat 'town'. They didn't include breakfast and didn't seem to offer dinner, so I went nearby to the Swinging Steakhouse, which was much friendlier and also has rooms. Despite mentioning the broken tap in the wash basin, they didn't fix it. I even found a note from someone who had stayed... More

It seems this motel is trying to do a lot to improve... adding nice seating areas outside, clean rooms with decent bedding. They were doing construction in the back, which was a bit noisy, but the unsmiling clerk warned us about that, and the back is where the nice view is, so we were okay with that. Overall though, the... More

My wife and I stayed at the newly renovated Hat Rock Inn for one night in September 2011 as part of our 2000 mile road trip visiting places of interest within the states of Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona. The Inn, situated in an isolated desert area, is a welcome oasis and great location to stay if you are... More

whilst this hotel is in a great location,the hotel itself left a lot to be desired considering the cost of this basic hotel,the staff were great,but the rooms are very average and if arriving late evening the outside lighting is inadequate going up rickety steps to the 2nd floor rooms-there is no lift,on our 14 day road trip from denver...

We stayed here early October 2011. Great location, not too far from Monument Valley and other beautiful sites; clean and nicely decorated room. A friendly smile by the hotel staff would be nice though. Give it a try guys, a friendly smile will make your day as well!!! More

We only spent one night here on our way to Monument Valley but it was great. The rooms were clean, very comfortable and quiet. It would have been nice to stay longer. The Swinging Steak Restaurant just up the road was expensive but worth the visit for the experience and friendly staff. More

We stayed here in late October and booked online thru their website. We got excited as we booked a room on the second floor as recommended by another traveller. But when we checked in we were told that we could not get that room as it was winter and those rooms on the second floor had been stripped and not... More
