Its real draw, however, lies in its direct connection to the Grand Canyon Railway, making the journey to the South Rim a seamless, scenic experience. The hotel's festive holiday decorations, noted particularly during the Polar Express season, add a charming layer to its overall appeal, although careful planning is advised for dining in town on holidays.”
