The most pet-friendly hotel in Southern Utah
Best Friends Roadhouse and Mercantile is an awesome pet-friendly hotel in Kanab, Utah. It’s the perfect complement to a Best Friends Animal Sanctuary volunteer trip or the ideal place to stay with pets while traveling in Southern Utah.
Pet amenities with no high extra fees
It truly is the most pet-friendly hotel! Our dog, Allen, gives it 5 stars. He loved sleeping on the pullout bed. He also was impressed with the small touches like his personalized nameplate, welcome treats from the staff, and his very own drinking fountain. His favorite is the fenced pet park for running, playing ball, and meeting new friends. All of this and the pets stay free.
Look at that smile at the Best Friends Roadhouse pet park.
The pet park is spacious with plenty of running room and has a splash zone for hot summer days. There is also a small run area. Other pet amenities include a pet washing station, pet walking service, or pet visits from the staff. There is a fee for the walking service and visits.
This is the walk back to the pet park area. The mural is so beautiful and there’s a great spot to sit and enjoy a bonfire.
Allen enjoyed shopping at the mercantile and visiting with the staff.
Best Friends Roadhouse has a stage for upcoming community events and entertainment.
We were also super impressed with the technology. The internet worked great and these iPads were so nice with all the information about the Roadhouse and surrounding area.
Another added benefit is that you can walk to restaurants from Best Friends Roadhouse. You can read about our Top 5 Restaurants in Kanab by clicking HERE. This time we checked out Jakey Leigh’s Coffee Shop and the fresh-baked bagels lived up to the hype.
Our February 2020 stay was unexpected. Our dog, Utah, passed away while we were traveling in Arizona. We brought her back to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary to lay her to rest at Angels Rest within the sanctuary.
The staff at the Roadhouse went above and beyond to help us through this hard time. I can’t say enough about their warmth and hospitality. We are incredibly thankful for them and everyone at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

Hi Brooks,
Thank you so much for the message! We were having a hard time after our dog passed away and the staff was amazing. We love JoAnne and Julie! They are genuine and both go above and beyond. Kanab is starting to feel like our second home and we can’t wait to come back in April. We look forward to seeing you!
