Zion National Park has one lodge inside park boundaries, the Zion Lodge. Reservations are generally needed far in advance, as with most national park lodges. The lodge is currently operated by Xanterra.
Outside lodging for the Zion Canyon area of the park is located in three main areas. The town of Springdale is right outside of the south entrance, and shuttles can be ridden from the town to the Zion Canyon Visitor Center, often right from the hotel parking lot. Of course, there is a sometimes significant price premium to be paid for this location. Lodging is also available in the city of Hurricane and the Mount Carmel Junction area. While Mount Carmel Junction is closer to the park boundary (the east entrance), the time to reach Zion Canyon is about the same from either. The lowest rates are in Hurricane.
We offer two methods of finding lodging in the area. The first is a search on Expedia. This will give you a good pricing comparison, and a number of property options. Simply enter one of the suggested destinations, your expected dates, number of people, and click "search". After the search we list some specific properties with details and a link to book directly with the property. The lodging is listed in order of proximity to Zion National Park and includes a link for directions from property to park entrance.
