Pet-designed motel in Kanab supporting the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary
Pet-Centric Design and Amenities
Best Friends Roadhouse and Mercantile has a fenced dog park with a splash pad for warm days and a separate dog spa for bathing. The property includes two dog runs (one small with pebbles, one large with grass and benches), an outdoor fire pit, and a picnic area. For safety, each room has a double-door entry system that prevents pets from escaping.
Rooms and In-Room Features
Guest rooms have a private bathroom, air conditioning, and a seating area with work desk and TV. Each bed includes a pull-out dog bed stored underneath, and the room provides pet bowls and a welcome sign for the pet. Rooms are non-smoking and include a safety deposit box, key card access, and smoke alarms.
Dining and Mercantile
A complimentary vegan breakfast is served each morning, offering banana bread, zucchini bread, overnight oats, and chia pudding. The on-site mercantile sells pet and cat-related items, gifts, and snacks. Breakfast is provided in a pet-friendly area where dogs are allowed on leash.
Services and Facilities
The motel offers a 24-hour front desk, express check-in and check-out, and daily housekeeping. Guests have free laundry service, a safety deposit box, and CCTV in common areas. The property provides free parking, an electric vehicle charging station, and accessible parking for disabled guests.

Best Friends Roadhouse is 2.7 km from Kanab Visitor Center, close to Moqui Cave and Western River Expeditions.
