Grand Canyon National Park
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us! To answer your question, if you're looking for a place to stay to see the sunrise and sunset at The Grand Canyon, we'd recommend three places. South Rim (Grand Canyon Village open all year), Phantom Ranch (at the bottom of Grand Canyon - open all year), and/or North Rim (May 15th through October 15). Just depends on the time of year you're planning to attend. For more information click here: http://www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/eatingsleeping.htm.
Enjoy your adventure.
Best,

For more information visit http://www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/weather-condition.htm or call the park directly at (928) 638-7888.
