My wife and I were touring the National Parks of the Southwest, half camping and moteling. We were turned away at the Captiol Reef NP campground. We head to Torrey to find a room. Our Fodors guide suggested staying in the Kiva at Capitol Reef Inn. The kiva is a free standing round rock building with a lodge pole roof. The room was very large with to king beds a gas stove/fireplace, ful kitchen. We have never seen anything like this. We had a wonderful time. The Capitol Reef Inn doesn't look like much from the road but it is well worth the stop. The resturant was very good also.

I stayed here recently for a couple of nights in Oct 2011. Despite the mediocre looks from the highway, my room was as neat as a pin , comfortable and at just over $ 50 per night it was great value. The simple earthy south western decor in the room was a nice touch as well . As for the restaurant here, you'll get a big serve of great food for a reasonable price. All round I highly recommend a stay here. From Down Under in Oz.

Last year we ate at the Cafe twice for breakfast. We had no idea there was an Inn here too. This year we decided to stay closer to the areas we were hiking....The Inn is a throw back to pre-large properties that are impersonal and sterile...back to Route 66 type motels We loved it. It was clean and comfortable and very quiet. The rate was very reasonable for the accommodation. The food is always excellent...this time we had dinner and breakfast. The service was first rate!

The Capitol Reef Inn & Cafe looks a bit shabby from the road but it is comfortable, clean and probably the best deal in town. Our room had two queen beds, a nice tv with cable ('tho not the channel for baseball - tsn). The staff were nice and the food at the cafe was very good.
