Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel Presents
Fall Pleasures and Palettes

Late October 2006 Edition

by Laura Conner

The Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel invites you to revel in the glorious Fall weather. The crowds have thinned out, ensuring a more memorable stay for you. This landmark Sedona hotel has recently completed an extensive 2 million dollar renovation, and it’s the ideal starting point for all your October adventures. Smart Sedona travelers know that the Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel delivers luxury touches with small-town friendliness. Come join the family of guests who return again and again to this charming hotel tucked among 8 private acres in the heart of Sedona.

Fall is the perfect time for a Grand Canyon Tour. The South Rim is a short 2½-hour drive from the hotel. On your way up, you’ll be awestruck by the beauty of the Aspen trees as they tremble gold in the autumn sunlight. In October, the crowds are thinner at the Grand Canyon, ensuring a memorable visit. While you’re at the South Rim, you’ll have the opportunity to see a wonderful exhibit of Grand Canyon photography at the historic Kolb Studio. “Lasting Light: 125 Years of Grand Canyon” features jury-selected works by 26 of the premier Grand Canyon photographers, both living and deceased. The exhibit runs through October 15, and is sponsored by Grand Canyon Association, Hance Partners, Inc, and Grand Canyon National Park.

All aboard for an Oktoberfest celebration! Every Saturday and Sunday in October, the Verde Canyon Railway features “Ales on Rails.” Come toast the German Fall tradition in style. The scenic train ride includes tasting-sized samples of beers and microbrews, as well as bratwurst, sausages, and hot, fresh pretzels. After a relaxing day on the train, you’ll be ready for a good night’s sleep in your luxuriously appointed room at the Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel. You’ll ease into dreamtime while surrounded with the incredibly soft 100% cotton Matelasse coverlet on your King or Queen size bed.

Calling all history buffs. The Sedona Heritage Museum presents “Voices of the Verde” on Saturday November 4th at 1:30 p.m. The hour-long show stars Michael Peach, an actor and certified history interpreter. His unique blend of humor, song, and cowboy poetry makes Sedona history informative and entertaining. Michael will bring to life General George Cook, other historical figures, as well as pioneers from the Sedona of years gone by. As a history lover, you’ll be intrigued to learn that the Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel was one of the first hotels built in Sedona. Because Sedona was a favorite location for Hollywood westerns at that time, actors and celebrities would stay at the hotel during filming. But you don’t have to be a Hollywood celebrity to be treated like a star at the Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel.

The Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel features 101 newly decorated guestrooms with luxurious amenities and affordable rates. You'll enjoy our beautiful executive rooms with private patios and in-room spa tubs, or our lovely courtyard garden rooms with patios or balconies overlooking our sparkling heated swimming pool and spa. Dining facilities are open daily for breakfast and Sunday Brunch. Look through our large picture windows and revel in the wild beauty that is Sedona. Weather permitting; meals may be served on our patio deck. The Kings Ransom Sedona Hotel is surrounded by incredible Red Rock views, with hiking trails just steps from your room.
