Zion Lodge

$$$ | Zion Canyon Scenic Dr., Zion National Park, UT, 84767, USA Fodor's Choice

For a dramatic setting inside the park, you'd be hard-pressed to improve on a stay at the historic Zion Lodge: the canyon's jaw-dropping beauty surrounds you, access to trailheads is easy, and guests can drive their cars on the lower half of Zion Canyon Scenic Drive year-round. Rooms in the main lodge buildings, which are modeled faithfully on the 1920s original, are rustic in style but with modern amenities, and each has a porch or balcony furnished with rocking chairs so you can enjoy the view. The neighboring historic Western-style cabins, which have been sensitively updated over the years, do not have TVs but are equipped with gas-log fireplaces and have porches.

Pros

  • Ideal location if planning a long day hike in the canyon
  • Incredible views
  • Home to the park's only restaurants

Cons

  • Pathways are dimly lit
  • Spotty Wi-Fi, poor cell service
  • Books up months ahead

Parry Lodge

$$ | 89 E. Center St., Kanab, UT, 84741, USA
The simple but clean and comfy rooms at this rambling 1931 hotel in the heart of Kanab are named for the stars—including John Wayne, Lana Turner, Roy Rogers—of the more than two-dozen Hollywood westerns filmed in the area. With a location that's handy for exploring Zion, Bryce, and the Grand Canyon North Rim, the venerable Parry Lodge is a hit with both outdoors and film enthusiasts—you can even watch vintage movies in the hotel's early-20th-century Old Barn Playhouse.

Pros

  • Heated pool
  • Intriguing film history
  • Restaurant on-site serving lunch and complimentary breakfast

Cons

  • Some rooms very small
  • Loud air-conditioning
  • Some may find this vintage property a bit too quirky for their tastes
