The company is proud to unveil the Taawaki Inn, a boutique hotel promising to immerse travellers in the luxury and serenity of the Verde Valley, just minutes from the historic Clarkdale depot.
A New Stopover in the Heart of Arizona
For 35 years, the Verde Canyon Railroad has invited explorers to discover northern Arizona through a protected wild corridor, accessible only by rail. With the introduction of the Taawaki Inn, this day-long adventure now transforms into a complete immersive getaway. Guests can combine the thrill of a rail journey with elevated comfort, thus extending their stay within a region of magnificent landscapes.
Modern Luxury and Hopi Spirit
The Taawaki Inn, whose name means « Sun House » in the Hopi language, embodies a refined fusion of contemporary luxury and the serene soul of the American Southwest. Each space has been designed with meticulous attention to reflect a profound sense of place, offering elegantly appointed rooms and carefully selected amenities.
Residents of the Taawaki Inn enjoy breathtaking views of the Tuzigoot National Monument and Sedona’s famous red rocks, creating a peaceful haven ideally located close to one of Arizona’s most cherished attractions.
Continuous Enhancement of the Experience
Although already designed to offer a premium stay, the Taawaki Inn is committed to continuous improvement. Ambitious development projects are planned, including the addition of a new bar, a covered terrace, a swimming pool, and a spa. These future facilities will further elevate the establishment’s profile, positioning it as a prime destination for relaxation and connection to its surroundings.
The Promise of an Extended Journey
The inauguration of the Taawaki Inn enables the Verde Canyon Railroad to offer a more seamless and memorable customer experience. Inviting visitors to slow down, extend their stay, and explore the Verde Valley more meaningfully, this hotel embodies a new facet of the company’s philosophy. While the Verde Canyon Railroad has always asserted that « It’s not the destination, it’s the journey », the Taawaki Inn now declares that « The journey begins here ».
