Friendly staff, family room has three beds and the place is super clean. Includes a nice pool, a wash area for gear and rags for cleaning the bikes. Good location, easy to get to several restaurants. Definitely happy with the stay! read more

Cleanliness, bed comfort, functionality of facilities, quiet, parking convenient to our room, spacious rooms, Wi-Fi, good range of cable channels, price competitive and friendly responsive staff - these are the criteria by which we judge our accommodation. Spending around half each year in your hotels, we've worked out what makes our stay enjoyable and what doesn't. We are not seeking luxury. We do not rate breakfast as none is adequate in terms of our needs. The Bowen Motel ticks all the boxes. If your key criteria match ours, look no further. read more

This motel is a decent option if you're looking for a place to sleep while in Moab. The rooms are basic and on the main drag, which is good for walking to restaurants. But it also gets pretty loud in the a.m. if you're trying to sleep. Like any motel though, the exterior is louder, with people walking past your door at any given time. We came with the intention of hiking all day for a couple days, so the Bowen worked fine for getting some sleep and showering. Had we planned to spend more time at our room, we would've preferred a nicer place. But the prices in Moab are pretty inflated with tourist traffic, so comparatively speaking, this motel was a decent price for Moab. The rooms were moderately clean. The bathroom had some grime around the corners of the floor and the beds had fleece blankets that tend to have hairs clinging to them. So when we peeled the sheets back, there were many hairs on the fleece, which didn't give the appearance of a super clean place. We didn't end up using most of the bedding. Outside of this, the rooms were in decent shape. The beds were pretty comfortable and allowed for a good night's sleep. They do have a pool, but we didn't use it, as it faced the main street and was pretty loud. The motel is definitely within walking distance of lots of neat places downtown. read more

Terrific motel. A best value in Moab. Clean, friendly, bike friendly, large rooms with plenty of space. Great location, easy in and out. Not a fancy hotel, just a great choice for a clean and worry free room while you are hanging in Moab. read more

Great for what it is, an inexpensive but very well located motel in Moab. They're obviously putting their best foot forward. Our queen double room (#111) was immaculate and, obviously, recently refurbished with care. I'd stay here again if ever in Moab! read more

- $79/night for two queens - Outdoor pool - Continental breakfast wasn't much - Place does not look like much from the outside but the rooms are nice - Great location close to downtown so you can walk to shopping and restaurants read more

Extremely basic but generally tidy and close to tourist shops and eateries. Price on a Wednesday after the end of the 4th of July holiday was excessive. No breakfast or services generally common with more commercialized chains. Parking is tight, rooms are small, and bed is closer to a full than a queen. It get the job done, but that's about it. However, Honestly wish I had spent ten more bucks down the road. read more

Bowen Motel - Hotels Near Me - Moab, Utah

Yes, it's a little older and they are in the middle of a big refurb, so some of the rooms are not quite finished - big deal! It's a great little place in the middle of town. Plenty of parking and walking distance to the town restaurants. Staff were friendly and the room was clean and big. We didn't get to try the pool as we both forgot our swimmers!! The best thing about this place - THE PRICE!! read more

Big rooms. Comfy beds. AC worked. Larger than normal hotel frig. sub par continental breakfast. No yogurt. 2 types of cereal. Great location. Good value. read more

Nice people! Room was comfy and clean. The dog slept in luxury by the ac. It's in the middle of town so we walked to breakfast. We weren't here for a 5 star hotel, just looking for a good bed, nice shower, and a clean room. Which is just what we got at Bowen motel. read more

We spent a week here in October. For the money, I think this place is grade A. Terrific location on Main Street. You can walk to all the restaurants and shops around town. Room 106 was clean and fairly up to date. You will hear some squeaky floorboards from people walking around in the room above. But they went to sleep at the same time as we did. Mattress and pillows were good. Carpet is clean enough for me not to be paranoid about walking barefoot and getting athlete's foot. Swimming pool is small but heated. It's not a new building but everything is well-maintained. Friendly and helpful front desk staff. Coffee maker in our room had a leak. They replaced it the same day. Wi-fi reception was good and they have two good desktop computers. Nice 40" TV and a good selection of channels including an HBO multi-channel package. Rooms were cleaned-up everyday. There's an outdoor wash area for cleaning the mud off your outdoor gear (bikes, boots, etc). They also provide cleaning rags. read more

Its definitely an older hotel. Its not as nice as one of the newer hotels. Its a little worn around the edges. The AC is a little noisy. The internet is a little slow. But its clean, safe, well located, has a nice pool, and seems well run. I think it represents a good value for your lodging dollar. read more

Great place to stay! We were just passing through Moab, and needed somewhere quick to stay. This was extremely budget friendly for as nice as the place was. We slept great, the rooms were very clean, and the front desk staff was quick and nice! The only downside to this hotel was it was close to the highway, so it was loud if you're a light sleeper. Not much you can do about that, but it didn't bother me at all! read more

Had to cancel due to a positive covid test. I asked to have the fee waived(the fee is the full price of the room) Considering we are in a global pandemic and I reached out to them 12 days before our reservation, I'd expect more. I was given the option to reschedule before the date of our original reservation but who knows when we will be able to travel. I look forward to visiting Moab when we are healthy and able to travel again. We won't be staying at this location though. read more

DO NOT BOOK ONLINE EVEN IF YOU ARE INSTRUCTED TO BY THE STAFF! I have stayed at this hotel for the last 15 years bringing groups of friends and kayak clubs staying one night before heading out to paddle the Green River. This year I CALLED to make my reservation and was instructed to book online because it would be quicker and I might get a better rate. I was not told at anytime that I could not get a refund if I had to cancel or make any changes. Imagine my surprise when I called to cancel my reservation 3 months out and was told I would not be getting any refund since I booked online. No where on their website's home page do they state their reservation policy. If you click on Reservations, there is no mention of a cancellation policy. Only after you make the reservation do you receive a confirmation email with a notice that you can not cancel or change your reservation and receive any refund. DO NOT B I never had any intention of booking online until I was instructed to by staff at the hotel. This is a poor way to treat a repeat customer and an underhanded way to make money. read more

This is by far the best place to stay in Moab. We've stayed here a few times in the last year and love it more each time. We had a small room mix up on our most recent arrival that was no fault of the hotels. The owner personally and swiftly resolved the issue and took great care to make sure we were at ease. James and I would like to personally thank the hotel owner and staff. The room was beautifully cleaned each day, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home. Thank you all so, so much. read more

I was impressed with this little motel. They get the basics right. The room was clean, the beds comfortable and the staff was nice. I also appreciated the fact that the showers had decent water pressure. And the flatscreen tv with Direct tv was a nice touch after a long day adventuring around Arches National Park. What else can you ask for in an inexpensive motel? read more

This motel isn't horrible, but it's not great, especially for the price. Don't count on the continental breakfast either. It's basically 2 types of cereal, bagels, apples, and bananas. For $80 it's not what you'd expect. We also had a couple of other problems, the A/C didn't take the moisture out of the air and our room was really boggy and wet. All of our clothes were moist and our comforters felt pretty wet to the touch. Also, our sink was really clogged and there was mold growing on the ceiling. Besides those two drawbacks we did fine. For $80 I would recommend the Rustic Inn. There are no frills, but you have a lot of room and a kitchen. The positives for staying at the Bowen include: fairly comfortable beds, microwave, small refrigerator, and A/C. The pool is super small as well! read more

The motel has been upgraded since my last stay. Room was clean, well-appointed and comfortable. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. The outlets need to be replaced - they were all so loose that plugs would not stay in the outlet. One had a multi-plug device that expanded the outlet to four plugs. When I tried to unplug my charger - the outlet cane out of the box. Do not get a ground floor room in the two-story building. The floors are not glued and/or screwed down, and when someone walks across the floor, it sounds like someone running. Otherwise - good value for the money. read more

Love this place clean and comfortable they have a extra parking lot for trailers great location

This place is a little expensive (we paid 100$/night) but the room is pretty nice with everything we needed: large TV, hair dryer, AC, parking spots right in front of the room, etc. It's not very noisy we could sleep without the earplugs. There is a fridge and a freezer in the room: very convenient for our bottles of water. Only negative point: remove the damn lights that are right above the bed. Each time we put our backs on the wall our heads hit those damn lights. I can't picture how someone could ever think "oh what if I put some lights right above the bed so that each time people would get up they would hit the light hohohoho" read more

A decent place to stay. Nothing spectacular but very refreshing to have air conditioning in hit Moab. Office staff were nice and the pool was also refreshing. read more

One of the cheaper options in Moab. Comfy, clean and nice size fridge. Parking spaces are tight. I would stay there again.

Super clean, and affordable. Checked in around 9:30 PM and the front desk lady was super friendly and kind. Originally booked for 1 night but decided to extend another night and the process was super easy and quick. If you are looking for a place to stay that will get you to Arches National Park or Canyanlonds, then this is definitely it. Only 8 minutes away from Arches!! read more

$89 for a queen. Nonsmoking, Up to date, Clean, quiet RM 122. I would recommend to anyone. Pool was clean and polished

For $49 a night in the winter, this is a steal. Granted, it's not a luxury hotel room, but for the price, we knew that going in. The room was plenty for what we needed - which was a clean place to crash after a long day of hiking. The bed wasn't the most comfortable, but we still slept well. It's smallish and the wifi kind of went in and out, but the location is pretty nice. We walked two doors down to the Love Muffin for breakfast in the morning, and there are plenty of other places that are walk-able from here. I give this 3.5 stars. It's totally worth it for the money. read more

For my lodging reviews, I take into account the room rates when deciding expectations. For the room rate, I'd say the Bowen Motel was good. Pros: - sheets and bathroom were clean!! - minifridge and microwave - spacious room - wifi - pleasant staff Cons: - If you stay on the bottom floor, it sounds like a herd of pachyderms is on stampede when people walk on the top floor = not that great of sleep. read more

My boyfriend and I checked into the Apache Motel only to find it absolutely horrid and disgusting. I had to fight for my refund and I found this place online for only a few dollars more. I booked it online immediately and we showed up only a few minutes later. The young man at the front desk couldn't find my booking, but checked me in anyway! I even showed him my confirmation email out of respect and to prove I did book it. We probably just showed up too fast for it to enter the system. He was very kind and we were very happy to have such a better experience right off the bat. When we entered our room we were relieved. It was a million times better than the Apache. It was very clean, had a great TV close to the bed, a mini fridge, microwave, a Keurig with Starbucks coffee (which made for two very happy Starbucks employees), very nice bathroom with good water pressure, and they even included rags to clean your cars, bikes, etc! It was such a great room to walk into and we enjoyed our stay very much. We were also very happy with the AC unit they had considering we love it cold! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Would love to stay here again! read more

The rooms are fine but the customer service is terrible. We called in requesting a late check-in at 10:30 pm after a long day of hiking and driving. Ms. Monica at the front desk told us that she would leave the key under a non-existent mat in front of our room. Once we arrived, Monica was still working at the front desk since the front desk is open until 11 pm so all we needed to do was check in and get our key. I forgot my ID in the car so I quickly ran to get it. Within this 20 second span, Monica decided to take a phone call for a reservation. We waited a good 10 mins before she finally finished her call. She could've just put the person on hold, gave us our key and we would have been on our way. Once she hung up, I explained that we were really tired and just needed our key. Her response was "Well I'm tired too." If you are required to work until 11 pm then you should not be complaining to your customers that you are tired, especially not in a sarcastic tone. On our way out the door she said "Have a good night." I responded softly, "You too" but I guess she couldn't hear me so she sarcastically repeated louder "Have a good night." Monica needs a lot of customer service training. read more

Room 104 is filthy (the marquis is advertising 'Housekeepers Needed'). Terrible, dark, dank room. Unlivable noise from creaking floors when patrons above or adjacent move around in their rooms. Plumbing noises too. Our room had loose creaky floors when we moved around too so we were probably just as annoying to our neighbors. Too top it off the free internet was down - front desk said 'it happens - especially if someone downloads a big file - it kicks everyone off'. Do yourself a favor and avoid the Bowen Motel. read more

Unless you have a burning desire, do NOT go to Moab during a "special" weekend. Apparently it was "Rally on the Rocks" which meant that the room that was supposed to be cheap ($75ish) was $135 for ONE night! I understand when it's a posh hotel with excellent amenities but the Bowen motel is nothing special. When I checked in the first thing they did was have me sign a paper that said if I left my dog alone in the hotel room they would call animal control to take her away. Don't act like you are pet friendly if want me to leave my thick coated collie sitting in a hot car in the desert instead of in an air conditioned hotel room. Do NOT bring a pet you love here. The pool wasn't opened yet, the "breakfast" was white bread or an english muffin and the bikers in all the rooms around us made exponentially more noise at 1am than my dog ever does. By the way I was treated I thought they were just trying to make me mad enough to leave so that they could get paid twice for one room. The only good things- decent beds and a mini fridge. Maybe in the middle of December you might actually get a warm welcome at the Bowen Motel. read more

Mehhhh. Stopped here as we were spending the next day mountain biking in Moab. Room was 39, no discount for AAA membership or active duty military. :( Paid for what we got. A clean room, a bed, a bathroom with hot water. Tiny tv with cable, but bigger than normal fridge. Microwave, table, two recliners from the 1960's. Heater seemed to work well. Shower drain clogged with the first shower... :( Woke up and went for the continental breakfast. Ouch... Two cereals to choose from, warm milk that expired the next day, and a juice machine that was "hibernating till summer"??? Along with two loafs of bread and a bag of english muffins that were recommended to used by Feb 3, 2011 (yeahhhh, that was a month ago...) Not sure what's up with that... Step to room is a neck breaker. About a 8 inch drop out of room. More or less the room was what you would expect for a cheap place to stay (other than the expired food). A little surprised that it is AAA approved. Oh and bottom sheet on bed was actually a TOP sheet just semi-tucked in? Didn't fit the mattress and exposed bottom/footside of bed...? (Gross) read more

Yes it is a motel not a 5-star hotel, but what a perfect place to stay! Rooms were meticulously cleaned, beds extremely comfortable, showers in perfect condition, and FREE WIFI. The staff was so courteous and welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. Filtered water available in lobby to fill up before hikes. Located right next to an awesome breakfast/lunch place which was very convenient. Parking readily available in front of your room. On top of that, very affordable and it has everything you could possibly want for a trip to Moab. Thanks for the wonderful stay, will definitely stay again when we come back to town! read more

Good clean rooms and reasonable fares. This would be a great place if you just want a clean place close to restaurants and shops for a biking or hiking adventure. They provide rags for your bikes and even have a wash station. Beds were comfy, only thing was toilet/shower room was small. But bathroom was nice, no real complaints! read more

Basic motel on the main drag of Moab. Rooms are nice, beds comfortable, with flat screen TV. Very close to shops and businesses, within walking distance. Office staff was friendly and very helpful. We extended our stay at the Bowen 3 times, and the staff was able to keep us in the same room during the busy spring break season. read more

Clean and well placed, no breakfast included though and rather pricy at $130 / night. Coin laundry just around the corner, restaurants & shops within walking distance. read more
