We went down to Bryce and Escalante to do some hiking and stayed at the Circle D. It was fantastic! Clean, spacious, quiet, very nice. We were in a kitchenette room and it had everything we needed including a full size frig. The owners and staff were wonderful, friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, about an hour drive to... More

This quiet, out of the way hotel is a real gem---rooms are being renovated for larger suites to accommodate mobility-challenged folks like my husband, who is paraplegic. The expanded space made it easy for him to comfortably get around. We loved the quaint but fully stocked bedroom, bath and kitchenette. So appreciated the desk with all sorts of visitor travel...

Hote room, 22, was clean and cool. The heat stretched past 100 during my stay and the chill of that amazing AC in our room was beautiful. The beds were made and room cleaned daily.

Our family of 4 stayed at the Circle D for one night before moving into Zion National Park to stay in one of their cabins. The Circle D was ideally located in central Escalante within convenient walking distance of multiple restaurants and shops. Our 2-bedroom motel non-smoking room was fairly standard, but clean and comfortable with a fun western vibe.... More

Great value. Motel is in an excellent location with great views from the patio outside the rooms. Very clean and the motel is investing in upgrading the rooms and facilities. A great restaurant attached to the motel so no driving. Very good value and the best place to stay in Escalante. There is a BBQ area that can be used... More

The good - quiet location. The bad: Drove by it because their sign is gone! (sign post, but no sign). It's dirt up to the buildings, not paved, which makes it seem like it's too old. Entered room, no power to TV, lights and other things. Called them and they said an "electrician" had just put in a new power... More

Good basic accommodation. An excellent location for anyone wanting to do a bit of hiking in the Escalante area. The beds are good - so you will get a good night's sleep. The rooms are not big but all you do is sleep in them. The place is clean and the towels and linens are of good quality. The rooms... More

This place is close to Escalante so it seems to be used a lot by hikes/visitors to the park..The room was small and only 1 night table so my husband and I couldn't' put our stuff on a separate table. There is no central air so the we had to put on the unit which was SO loud, it made... More

We needed a reasonably-priced room in Escalante for 2 nights while hiking in the area. Circle D fit the bill fine but set your expectations accordingly. Positive: $74 a night, pleasant staff, hiking guides and other books about the area in each room, mini-fridge, coffeemaker, and microwave, good beds and linens, pretty clean overall, covered porch with chairs and table...

Safety concern - the TV, Microwave, fridge and coffee maker were all plugged into the same duplex outlet. The room was woefully underpowered. Although the manager said the WiFi signal strength was good, the system kept dropping me; was unable to do more than check e-mail. There were cleanliness issues; the floor had not been vacuumed from previous use; we... More
