Unpretentious hotel offering casual rooms & suites with kitchens, patios & desert views.
Entrada Escalante Lodge is a boutique property on Highway 12 in downtown Escalante, positioned at the midpoint of Scenic Byway 12's most dramatic stretch. The lodge sits within Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument's sphere — trailheads, slot canyons, and backcountry roads fan out in every direction from town. Bryce Canyon National Park is roughly 65 miles to the west; Capitol Reef is about the same distance east.
Eight rooms in three configurations: Single King, Double Queen, and a Deluxe King Suite. All rooms include luxury mattresses, 50-inch smart TVs, and heated bathrooms. The Single King has a microwave, mini-fridge, and coffee maker; the Double Queen adds a kitchenette; the Deluxe King Suite comes with a full kitchen. Pets are welcome in select rooms for an additional nightly fee. Free Wi-Fi and free self-parking are included. The property also has an on-site Tesla Supercharger — a practical detail on a highway corridor where the next charger can be 50 miles away.
The lodge's attached Waffles & Wildflowers restaurant handles breakfast and more without requiring a drive into town. Escalante itself has a handful of outfitter shops and a gas station; for broader resupply, plan before you arrive. This is a well-suited base for multi-day canyoneering trips into the monument or a thorough exploration of the Highway 12 corridor. Book ahead for spring and fall — it's a small property in high demand during peak season.

The most remarkable stay of our Utah NP trip. Very large and comfortable room. All the little touches you could think of. Has a back patio which is very relaxing with a wonderful view. Outstanding local fresh ground coffee is the smoothest coffee I've ever had. Several tea choices too. Strongly recommend. Would definitely stay here again.

Loved our stay at Entrada Escalante Lodge. The view from the back porch was amazing. It was perfect for us. Lots of room. Small kitchenette was helpful and nice big bathroom and shower. Lots of little unexpected amenities and great location. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Escalante.

Beautiful cozy inn near Escalante conveniently located near attractions. Rooms are spacious, very clean sheets and 5 star amenities. The rooms have a back porch that overlooks stunning views and the grounds have handmade animal art sculptures from recycled materials. The groundskeeper is friendly and helpful for recommendations around the area — there is something for everyone. Highly recommend for trips of all types — couples, families or friends. This place is amazing!

The location was perfect and the amenities were incredible! We truly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return. Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and hiking along Scenic Byway 12! The staff was incredibly friendly and gave great tips on nearby slot canyons and trails. We loved that it’s pet-friendly (our dog felt right at home) If you’re looking for one of the best hotels in Escalante Utah for outdoor adventures, this is it. Highly recommend!
