Bryce Canyon Resort

Bryce Canyon National Park


Four miles from the park, this is a great option. While the grounds leave much to be desired, there's a modernist-kitsch appeal to the rooms that blend all that's great about the American motel, with modern treatments like huge murals and steampunk fixtures.

Remodeled rooms include newer furnishings and extra amenities, while economy rooms are standard. Some units have kitchenettes. Cottages have kitchenettes and sleep up to six. Pets are extra. There’s also a heated outdoor swimming pool, a small campground, and a restaurant.
