Moab hotels and hostels
Rates given here are for March to October; prices drop by as much as 50% outside those months. Some smaller places close November through March. Most lodgings have hot tubs for aching muscles and mini- refrigerators to store snacks; motels have laundry facilities to clean up the trail dirt. Cyclists should ask whether a property provides secure bike storage, not just an unlocked closet.

River Canyon Lodge
Aarchway Inn
Space sets this 75-room motel apart. You could have a conga line in the giant standard bedrooms and family suites. Aarchway has the town's biggest swimming pool and there's a humongous parking lot next door for your all-terrain toys.
Red Cliffs Lodge
Part dude ranch, part luxury motel, Red Cliffs has comfy suites with vaulted ceilings, kitchenettes and private-if-cramped patios (some overlook the river).
Adventure Inn
A great little indie motel, the Adventure Inn has spotless rooms (some with refrigerators) and decent linens, as well as laundry facilities. There's a picnic area on site; no hot tub.
Big Horn Lodge
OK, so the exterior is kitschy Southwestern Indian-style, c 1970, but the knotty-pine paneled interiors are cozy, service is taken seriously and there are loads of extras (including heated swimming pool and hot tub, refrigerators and coffee maker.
Castle Valley Inn
For tranquility – or cycling – it's hard to beat this Castle Valley location, 15 miles north of Moab. Rooms (in the main house, or new cabins with kitchens) sit amid orchards of apples, plums and apricots.
Warner Lake Campground
In La Sal Mountains, 32 miles southeast (and 20°F cooler).
Red Rock Lodge & Suites
Old-West exterior, standard motel interior. Hot tub, high-speed internet access.
Blm Campsites
Despite tons of hotels, B&Bs and campgrounds, the town is packed from spring to fall; reservations are advised. Individual BLM campsites in the area are first-come, first-served.
Base Camp
On 50 rugged riverside acres beneath Hurrah Pass, the five-room Base Camp is a bona fide backcountry lodge. It maintains an 18-hole, par 61 disc golf (Frisbee) course over canyons, slickrock and cactus-strewn meadows.
Goose Island Campground
Ten no-reservation riverside BLM campgrounds lie along a 28-mile stretch of Hwy 128 that parallels the Colorado River northwest of town. The 18-site Goose Island, just 1.4 miles from Moab, is the closest. Pit toilets, no water.
Canyonlands Campground
Old-growth tree-shaded sites, right in town but still quiet. Includes showers, laundry, store, small pool and playground.
Sunflower Hill
Kick back in an Adirondack chair amid the manicured gardens of two inviting buildings: a rambling 100-year-old farmhouse and an early 20th-century home. All 12 guest quarters have a sophisticated country sensibility.
Moab Koa Kampground
Pancake breakfasts, playground, games room and mini-golf. Pets welcome.
Pack Creek Ranch
Stay in one of 11 log cabins on a working ranch in the mountains, 2000ft above – but only 15 miles south – of Moab. No TVs; two-night minimum.
Up The Creek Campground
There's something about this shady, tent-only grove that fosters a sense of community, and it's a plus that the 20 sites are within walking distance of downtown. Showers are included, but are also available to nonguests for $6; no fires.
Portal Rv Resort
The best place for luxury RVers, with long pull-throughs. Has showers, spa, laundry, store and dog run.
Dream Keeper Inn
Walk to restaurants from this immaculate mid-century ranch-house B&B. Native American textiles add to the refined design of six uncluttered rooms, and lush lawns surround a kidney-shaped pool.
Motel 6 Moab
Multistory, interior-access motel; great red rock views.
Kokopelli Lodge
Tucked away on a back street, you’ll find this carefully tended, 1950s motel with eight rooms only. A sunset color exterior, pine posts and grassy yard all add character. Pet friendly.
Lazy Lizard Hostel
Hippie hangout with frayed couches, worn bunks and small kitchen.
Best Western Canyonlands Inn
A comfortable, chain choice at the central crossroads of downtown. Features a fitness room, laundry, playground and outdoor pool.
Cali Cochitta
Make yourself at home in one of the charming brick cottages a short walk from downtown. A long wooden table on the patio provides a welcome setting for community breakfasts.
Gonzo Inn
Brushed metal-and-wood headboards, concrete shower stalls and '50s retro patio furniture spruce up this standard motel. Bicycle wash-and-repair station on site.
Redstone Inn
You get a lot for your budget buck here: simple, pine-paneled rooms with refrigerators, microwaves, coffee makers and free wired internet access.
Sand Flats Recreation Area
At the Slickrock Bike trailhead, this mountain-biker special has 120 nonreservable sites, fire rings and pit toilets, but no water and no hookups.
Slickrock Campground
North of town. Tent sites have canopies; RV sites have 30-amp hookups only. Nonguest showers $3; also has hot tubs, heated pool and a store.
