The Wesley
150 North Lake Powell Boulevard
Page, AZ
Page's original road lodge, reborn as the town's first boutique stay at the doorstep of Lake Powell, Horseshoe Bend, and Antelope Canyon.
About The Wesley
The Wesley is the oldest lodging in Page, a two story road lodge built in 1973 to serve travelers coming to see the great works of Glen Canyon. New owners took it over in early 2026 and gave the town its first true boutique stay, naming it for John Wesley Powell, the one armed Civil War veteran and geologist who first ran the Colorado River through these canyons. The building keeps its honest roadside bones: single level walkways, private doors, a courtyard pool at the center. Inside, the rooms have been reworked with a calm modern desert hand, premium linens and warm finishes tuned to the red rock light outside. It sits right on Lake Powell Boulevard in the heart of downtown Page, a few minutes from Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon, and the dam itself.
What The Wesley Is Known For
Page has plenty of chain lodging, but The Wesley is the town's first stay with a genuine point of view, an old road lodge given real design intention instead of a generic refresh. It honors what the building always was, a place for people coming to stand at the edge of these canyons, and it wears the name of the man who mapped them well. Keeping the exterior door, drive up character while lifting the rooms to a boutique standard is exactly the kind of thoughtful restoration that earns the designation.

The Room
Rooms range from compact king and double queen layouts to larger suites and a full apartment, several with kitchenettes or full kitchens for longer canyon country stays. Each has been finished with premium linens, a plush mattress, blackout drapes for the bright desert mornings, and a mini fridge. The View Suite adds a separate living area and a large window framing the red rocks, while the apartment in the back building spreads across two bedrooms with a full kitchen. Every room opens to its own private exterior entrance, and free WiFi runs throughout.
The Grounds
The Wesley is built the classic road lodge way, two levels of rooms wrapped around a central courtyard with a seasonal outdoor pool at the heart of it. Doors open straight to exterior walkways rather than interior halls, and parking is free and on site, an easy pull up after a long day in the canyons. A small fitness room and an outdoor courtyard round out the grounds. The setting is pure high desert town: wide streets, big sky, and the red mesas rising just past the rooflines.
The Experience
This is a basecamp for the wonders around Page, and it is built for the rhythm of a canyon country trip. Mornings start early here, out the door before the heat for a sunrise at Horseshoe Bend or a booked slot in Antelope Canyon, both only minutes away. Afternoons might mean a boat on Lake Powell out of Wahweap or Antelope Point, or the walk across Glen Canyon Dam. Check in is contactless and keyless with support around the clock, so late arrivals off the highway are simple. Evenings end back at the courtyard pool, watching the desert sky go from copper to deep blue.
