The View Hotel stands right inside the spectacular Monument Valley. You can take Navajo-led hiking and jeep tours of the mitten rock formations, ancient Anasazi dwellings, petroglyphs and natural arches. An all-day jeep tour costs $118, including lunch. The hotel, owned by Armanda Ortega, a member of the Navajo Nation, opened in December. Room rates range from $99 to $225.

    “Nowadays one becomes an author not through one’s originality but by reading. One becomes a human being by aping others. That one is human is known not from one’s own case but by inference: one is like the others, therefore one is human. God knows whether any of us are! And in our age, when […]

    “The loving man, he in whom there is love, hides the multitude of sins, sees not his neighbor’s fault, or, if he sees, hides it from himself and from others; love makes him blind in a sense far more beautiful than this can be said of a lover, blind to his neighbor’s sins. On the […]
