Canyon de Chelly National Monument offers spectacular geological formations and steep-walled canyons which meet the mysteries of the preserved ruins of Native American villages.The historic residence is the only accommodation available within the monument. The lodge sits on the site of an 1896 trading post. Its pink adobe construction is reminiscent of ancient pueblos. Dining is located in the original trading post and offers both continental and Navajo-style dishes. The dining room walls are adorned with Navajo rugs and artwork. A vault-like room in the centre of the dining area once served as a jail for the trading post. The gift shop offers some of the region's finest Native American jewellery, crafts and Navajo rugs.The hotel provides convenient rooms.While travelling in the canyons, experienced Navajo guides explain the significance of man-made structures and symbols such as petroglyphs and pictographs, while also pointing out natural points of interest.
