Zion Lodging Location Map

WHERE TO STAY WHILE VISITING ZION

Springdale

The Town of Springdale is the best place to stay while visiting Zion National Park.  It is conveniently located at the South Entrance of the Park and is one of Utah’s finest resort towns.  It has a free Town Shuttle that links to the Zion Canyon Shuttle.  Springdale has a great selection of restaurants, shops, and galleries.  We recommend staying at the Cliffrose Lodge or other Springdale Lodging.

Hurricane

The City of Hurricane is located 30 minutes west of the South Entrance of Zion National Park.  It has hotels, motels, grocery stores, and a few decent places to eat.  We recommend the Travelodge.

East-side Lodging

The Zion Mountain Resort and Zion Ponderosa are considered eastside lodging.   These can be great places to stay but it should be understood that there is a 40-60 minute commute to the Zion Canyon Shuttle/Springdale.  There is also lodging further to the east in Mountain Carmel and Orderville, travel time to the Zion Canyon Shuttle 45-60 minutes.  These areas are closer to Bryce and Grand Canyon North Rim but do not have the location convenience of Springdale.

Cedar City

Cedar City is close (15-20 minutes) to the Kolob Canyons section of Zion National Park but is 1.5 hours from Zion Canyon and many of the parks main attractions so most do not consider it for Zion Lodging.  Access to Cedar Breaks, Cedar Canyon, Kanarra and other National Forest resources. The town’s Shakespeare Festival features high quality theater through most of the tourism season.  It is a friendly little town with great restaurants and hotels
