Located less than a half hour from the Motel 6, one of Moab, UT's most affordable chain hotels, the Film Museum at Red Cliffs Ranch commemorates the movie-making history of southeastern Utah through displays of memorabilia and photographs. The Moab area has hosted film crews since 1949, when legendary director John Ford discovered the area, utilizing it as a backdrop for classic Westerns such as "Rio Grande" and "Wagon Master." Later on, portions of "Thelma and Louise," "City Slickers II," "Geronimo," and Mission Impossible II" were shot on location near Moab.
Arches National Park, the Moab, UT area's most popular scenic attraction, is located only four miles from Motel 6, one of the community's northernmost hotels. The greatest concentration of natural arches on earth, Arches National Park is also full of other awe-inspiring formations, including fins, spires and balanced rocks. The Fiery Furnace, named for its distinct orange and red hues, is one of the park's most interesting paths. A maze through red rock formations of all shapes and sizes, the hike is best when led by a ranger, who knows the route and offers narration. The park's signature attraction, however, is Delicate Arch, which appears on Utah's Centennial license plates.
Low rates, spacious rooms, friendly staff and a convenient location make Motel 6 one of the top choices among hotels in Moab, UT. Within a mile radius lie top-notch eateries, including Desert Bistro, La Hacienda, Buck's Grill House, Eklecticafe, and the Broken Oar Restaurant. When you are not exploring the area or taking advantage of its dining options, return to your hotel room at Motel 6 to unwind in front of cable TV or swim in our outdoor heated pool. One of the best value hotels in Moab, Motel 6 makes a great lodging headquarters for exploring southeastern Utah.
