Thunderbird Lodge is a great place to stay in Grand Canyon Village. It sits between Bright Angel Lodge and the El Tovar Hotel so you're close to the restaurants at both places but have the peace of a place that doesn't have other guests walking through. Our room was cozy and had everything we needed and parking was easy when we visited in January. This place gets a thumbs up from us!

Room was a bit smaller than expected and bathroom was tiny. No “common” room in the lodge and we only spent time sleeping in the lodge. All eating and chilling out was done in surrounding lodges. I wish I had done better research and booked a better hotel/lodge.
