Perfect location and every room has a view like it says. Every morning from my bed waking up I was able to see the mountains without getting out of bed. Location is awesome, right in the middle of uptown and parking was easy! The rooms were super clean too.

Lovely room with comfortable bed and pillows. View from bed and patio is stunning. The 2 desk gals we met were certainly not rude, but not overly friendly either. We have been traveling where the wind takes us, generally staying one night at each stop. We decided to stay another night to hike a little more, and not have to pack up and unpack for a change. We booked late at night to make sure we had the room. It was $100 more than the first night, but we decided it was worth it for the convenience. We were very surprised the next morning when they told us we would have to move rooms. What? We never know how long we want to be in a town, and do this sort of thing often. This has never been an issue at hotels both large and small. It seemed that we would be going where the computer placed us and there would be no changing. Alas. We packed everything up, went about our day, and checked in again later. If we had known this would be the case, we would have done our hiking and moved on down the road to our next destination. Ah well. I do recommend the hotel, but you just can’t be spontaneous, lol!

Loved staying here - it was the perfect location with lots of resturants and shops. Enjoyed the beautiful views, the coffee shop right across the way, and the breakfast grab & go!

We booked one of their homes that they offer and must say we were HIGHLY impressed. It was a fantastic 4 bedroom house, steps away from the main drag of downtown Sedona. The beds were comfortable enough that I regret not taking a picture of the mattress and pillows to buy one for my home. I would absolutely stay here again.

Clean,newer furniture and showers. But you just can't beat the views. Within walking distance of a bunch of sedona shops and restaurants as well as pink jeep tours.

I stayed at the Matterhorn Inn last night for one night because I decided to extend my vacation after staying at an Airbnb across the street. The bed in my room was fantastic. I cannot rave about it more. The room was great. I love that it was on the first floor, right by the pool and the hot tub and I had an amazing view of the red rock buttes. It’s a great place to stay for a great place~~ free parking right by the room, free Wi-Fi and a free breakfast. Also, it is on the main drag where all the shops and restaurants are in Sedona. You literally just walk out of your room and you’re on the street. It’s a great deal! I’ll be back.
