{"type":"city","city":"Moab","citySlug":"moab-utah","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/united-states/utah/moab-utah","description":"The Colorado Plateau does most of the design work in Moab. The sandstone formations that ring the town, burnt sienna shading into deep ochre depending on the hour and the season, make every architectural decision feel like a response to an overwhelming physical fact. Hotels here are not really competing with each other so much as they are each proposing a different way to be inside that landscape, whether that means standing close to it from a town address or dissolving into it entirely.\n\nOn Main Street, the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton occupies a more grounded position, offering considered midrange accommodation with a calibrated sense of place rather than spectacle. Its sister product, the Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, steps the experience up considerably, with freestanding casita units that give guests a degree of spatial privacy unusual for a property sitting within walking distance of restaurants and outfitters. The distinction between the two tiers is genuinely meaningful here: the Casitas rate, sitting above five hundred dollars a night, reflects an architectural upgrade in footprint and seclusion rather than simply a higher thread count. For the traveler whose instinct is to notice materials and spatial mood, Main Street is the pragmatic base, close enough to the town's gear shops, coffee counters, and canyon access points to function well as a working hub.\n\nULUM Moab, located further out toward the La Sal Mountains, operates on an entirely different premise. The property places tent-like structures directly in the desert, and the architecture, such as it is, prioritizes transparency over enclosure. The tent pavilions frame unobstructed views of Arches National Park's mesa lines and allow the plateau light to move through the space across the day in ways a solid structure never could. At nearly seven hundred dollars a night, ULUM is not selling convenience. It is selling proximity, the experience of waking in a structure with almost no visual barrier between the guest and several hundred million years of geological event. Whether that proposition holds depends entirely on what a traveler is after: the person who wants Moab as a town, with its particular desert-Southwest informality, will find the Hoodoo properties better calibrated to that appetite. The person who came for the rock, the silence, and the quality of the light at six in the morning will find that ULUM has removed almost every obstacle between them and it.","provider":{"name":"PressBeyond","url":"https://pressbeyond.com","description":"PressBeyond provides AI-optimized hotel content with a consistent 5-image structure across its entire portfolio.

The curved entry pavilion — clad in pale limestone and warm corten-toned panels that echo the iron-oxide geology behind it — wraps around a central arrival axis with floor-to-ceiling glazing pulling the desert light deep into the lobby. The three-story guestroom wings step back from the entrance in a massing that borrows the layered horizontality of the mesa formations visible from nearly every window.\n\nInside the 145 rooms, walnut-toned wall panels and stone-accent headboards establish a palette calibrated to the terrain outside rather than to generic Southwest kitsch — the effect closer to a well-edited mountain lodge than a resort property hedging its bets. Pendant lighting in blackened steel, leather club chairs in cognac, and abstract patterned carpets that lift colors from the canyon floor carry that register through consistently. The restaurant dining room shifts register slightly, with stacked sandstone walls, exposed dark timber beams, and rattan-framed chairs lending a warmer, more tactile atmosphere that opens through black steel-framed accordion doors onto a terrace. The pool courtyard, terraced with boulders salvaged to mimic natural outcropping, lets the red cliffs of the Behind the Rocks wilderness area serve as a backdrop that no designer could reasonably improve upon.","snippet":"A Moab hotel whose massing and materials absorb the Colorado Plateau landscape rather than face it.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts visiting Moab's canyon lands","vibe":"Desert-modern · grounded","highlights":["Curved limestone entry pavilion echoes iron-oxide geology","145 rooms with walnut panels and stone headboards calibrated to terrain","Terraced pool courtyard with salvaged boulders mimicking natural outcropping"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$278","pricePerNightExclTax":"$278","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton2.jpg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton1.jpg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton4.jpg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton3.jpg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton5.jpg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]},{"name":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/united-states/utah/moab-utah/casitas-at-the-hoodoo-moab-curio-collection-by-hilton","city":"Moab","cityHeader":"Moab • Main Street • SPLURGE","neighborhood":"Main Street","loyaltyProgram":"Hilton Honors™","designSummary":"Against the raw sandstone escarpments that frame Moab's eastern skyline, the low-slung courtyard geometry of Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton takes its formal cues directly from the canyon country surrounding it. The two-storey guest wings, clad in warm terracotta-toned composite panels above courses of pale split-face masonry block, echo the layered geology of the Colorado Plateau in a way that feels considered rather than cosmetic. Shallow cantilevered roof planes with dark metal fascias and wrought-iron balcony rails give the massing a mid-century desert-modernist quality, while the freeform pool courtyard — set with boulders, tiered stone terraces, and a serpentine water feature — anchors the complex to its site with considerable conviction.\n\nInside the Casitas, the palette carries the exterior logic inward. Fireplace surrounds clad in hand-glazed amber ceramic tile bring concentrated color into rooms that are otherwise calibrated in warm sand and walnut tones — textured grasscloth-style wallcoverings, cognac-leather platform beds, and burnished timber millwork throughout. The suites push further: a split-faced sandstone fireplace wall anchors the living area, flanked by a full kitchen with walnut cabinetry and a tufted sectional in taupe chenille, the ceiling articulated by a recessed walnut coffer housing a linear pendant. Black-and-white landscape photography of the surrounding canyon terrain appears as the sole wall art in the standard rooms, a quiet insistence that the landscape outside remains the primary reference point.","snippet":"A desert-modernist Moab hotel where terracotta and split-face masonry directly reference the surrounding Colorado Plateau geology.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts exploring the Colorado Plateau","vibe":"Geological-modern · grounded","highlights":["Mid-century desert-modernist design echoing canyon geology","Hand-glazed amber ceramic fireplaces in every room","Freeform pool courtyard with boulders and tiered terraces"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$546","pricePerNightExclTax":"$546","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Casitas+at+the+Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton2.jpg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Casitas+at+the+Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton1.jpg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Casitas+at+the+Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton4.jpg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Casitas+at+the+Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton3.jpg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/Casitas+at+the+Hoodoo+Moab,+Curio+Collection+by+Hilton5.jpg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at Casitas at the Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection by Hilton — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]},{"name":"ULUM Moab","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/united-states/utah/moab-utah/ulum-moab","city":"Moab","cityHeader":"Moab • La Sal • SPLURGE","neighborhood":"La Sal","designSummary":"Fifty white canvas tents scattered across 200 acres of burnt-ochre Utah desert, each one pitched toward Looking Glass Arch as if the landscape itself called the alignment — this is the premise of ULUM Moab, which opened in 2023 and earns its Two MICHELIN Keys not through conventional architecture but through the deliberate refusal of it. DTJ Design kept the permanent structures low and recessive: the lobby building presents as a horizontal bar of warm timber cladding and floor-to-ceiling bi-fold glass, its cedar-lined ceiling and concrete floors deferring entirely to the Canyonlands panorama beyond. Tensile shade canopies above the outdoor terraces echo the tent typology without mimicking it, and a sandstone fire pit anchors the social heart of the camp with the directness of something genuinely ancient.\n\nInside the tented suites, DESIGN360unlimited and Under Canvas VP of Design Ben Landry worked a careful layering of the elemental and the comfortable. Raw timber ridge poles carry white canvas overhead while walnut-stained hardwood floors and iron-framed furniture — lean leather sling chairs, clean-lined coffee tables — keep the interiors from tipping into rustic pastiche. Pendleton blankets fold across crisp white bedding; barn-door panels in reclaimed wood slide to reveal en-suite facilities. At 360 square feet of interior plus a 70-square-foot private deck, each suite frames the sage and red-rock expanse like a living painting, confirming that the most considered design decision here was simply choosing where to look.","snippet":"Fifty canvas tents across 200 Utah acres, each aligned toward Looking Glass Arch, with Two MICHELIN Keys for design restraint.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts seeking desert immersion","vibe":"Minimalist-nomadic · contemplative","highlights":["Fifty canvas tents aligned toward Looking Glass Arch","Two MICHELIN Keys for design-driven hospitality","DTJ Design lobby defers entirely to Canyonlands views"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$640","pricePerNightExclTax":"$640","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/ULUM%20Moab2.jpg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"ULUM Moab — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · ULUM Moab · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of ULUM Moab captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/ULUM%20Moab1.jpg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"ULUM Moab — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · ULUM Moab · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at ULUM Moab, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/ULUM%20Moab4.jpg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"ULUM Moab — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · ULUM Moab · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at ULUM Moab — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/ULUM%20Moab3.jpg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"ULUM Moab — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · ULUM Moab · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at ULUM Moab, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/ULUM%20Moab5.jpg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"ULUM Moab — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · ULUM Moab · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at ULUM Moab — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]}]}
