Top The Grotto Picnic Area Hotel Reviews

Petty Ranch Inn

8/10 Good

"Room decor was nice and modern. Rooms are quite simple, could do with a few amenities - a coffee machine would be good, as there isn’t one in the lobby or rooms. Can purchase at cafe in car park. Very good location for Springdale and exploring Zion - walkable around town and shuttle stop outside."

Under the Eaves at Zion National Park

10/10 Excellent

"Cute and tiny room, but it had everything we needed. The owner did a great job communicating with us and was very responsive. We had a lovely stay!"

Flanigan's Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property. Mountain View"

Hyatt Place Springdale/Zion National Park

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was great in every way. The setting is beautiful (can't help that just outside Zion National Park), the facility is new, clean, quiet, and comfortable. The free breakfast has a wide variety of offerings, including some healthy ones, and the food is high-quality. We had a good meal and drink in the in-house restaurant/bar. I would stay here again in a minute."

Desert Pearl Inn

8/10 Good

"Location and charm were wonderful. The room lacked a few amenities needs some updating. Sofa etc…bedding and towels were perfect….lacked charging ports for computers and phones."

Red Cliffs Lodge Zion, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel - Marriott Bonvoy

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very comfortable and located right in town. You can walk to everything. We enjoyed the restaurant very much. Our server we excellent and the food was very good."

Zion Canyon Lodge

8/10 Good

"Very nice suite, clean easy free parking, very good location and free breakfast."

Best Western Plus Zion Canyon Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Très belle vue et près de tout."

Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is an amazing resort, with a wide variety of activities available for guests, a great onsite restaurant, and quaint cabins with updated furnishings and appliances. We felt very comfortable. We regret that, due to our crowded schedule, we didn't have the time to avail ourselves of the many activities available, such as miniature golf or jeep tours. One minor criticism: We arrived after dark, and we were given our key and a map to our cabin, which was #3. The property is not very well lit at night, so we spent over 15 minutes driving around trying to find cabin #3. At one point we found a cabin #3, but someone was already in it. When we went back to the registration desk, they explained that there were multiple cabin #3s, which were differentiated by the level of the size and number of beds. The map was not super helpful. We finally found the right cabin, and it was certainly worth the wait!"
