Between Glen Canyon Dam (Page, AZ) and Grand Canyon, probably the best place to stay is the hotel at the Cameron Trading Post. This is located beside the Little Colorado River gorge where on earth highway 64 to Grand Canyon Village branches off of 89A between Page and Flagstaff. Cameron is a concrete authentic trading post with an interesting screening of Native American blankets and jewelry (plus the usual touristy stuff). The rooms in the lodge paragraph are modern, clean and justifiably priced and the cafe has righteous food (they are famous for their huge Navajo Tacos).
Tusayan is the little tourist settlement only just outside of the park gate for the Grand Canyon that have a number of cuff hotels. It is a place to stay while you are visiting the park, but not really 'in between' if you are looking for a mid-way point between GC and Lake Mead. Although the hotels at Tusayan are fine, I prefer the lodges inside the park itself because they are much more convenient (don't enjoy to go through the lines at the park total admission money each time you want to move about to your room). All the lodges inside the park are ran by Xanterra and reservations can be made online.
As far as a accurate place to stop between Grand Canyon and Lake Mead...
Flagstaff is the largest town along the way (about 1.5 hours from Grand Canyon and 3.5 from Hoover Dam). Flagstaff have a wide collection of hotels and cafes including adjectives the major chains. If you are looking for something rather different, the historic Monte Vista Hotel in the historic downtown is a orderly place and within walking distance of caf¨¦, shops and art galleries. The Monte Vista be once a show place hotel in the 1930s and 40s and used by movie stars film in the nouns (scenes from Casablanca were film here).
A half-hour west of Flagstaff, is the smaller town of Williams which has a few hotels and caf¨¦ (and a small historic district). This is also where the Grand Canyon railway starts from. Further west are the small towns of Ash Fork and Seligman whose lodging option are limited.
The subsequent best option is the town of Kingman where on earth US93 to Lake Mead branches off of I-40 (about 1.5 hours from Lake Mead and 3.5 hours from the canyon). Kingman have a fairly colossal assortment of chain hotels as powerfully the historic Brunswick hotel in the antediluvian historic downtown area close the railroad tracks. Nearby is the El Palacio Cafe - an excellent family run Mexican food restuarant.
There aren't profoundly of hotels in your routes, except Flagstaff.
Most are motels around $50 to $100 per hours of darkness.
