★
This is a good choice for those who are seeking an up-
scale, reliable chain motel, with possibly even a few pleasant surprises. Rooms in
the handsome two-story complex, located 1 1/2 miles from the park, are tastefully
appointed in Southwest style, with either two queen beds or one king-size bed,
light-colored walls decorated with artwork depicting the area, and solid wood fur-
nishings. Especially appealing are the units with pitched, high ceilings, with win-
dows that seem to be aligned precisely to capture the views of the colorful rock
formations outside. The grounds are nicely landscaped, and of course offer phe-
nomenal views of the area's red rock formations.

CanyonRanchMotel
Consisting of a series of two- and four-unit cottages set back
from the highway, this motel's buildings simply ooze charm, with the look of
1930s-style cabins on the outside while providing modern motel rooms inside.
Rooms are either new or newly remodeled, and options include one queen- or
king-size bed, two queen-size beds, or one queen-size and one double. Some
rooms have showers only, while others have tub/shower combos. Room no. 13,
with two queen-size beds, offers spectacular views of the Zion National Park rock
formations; views from most other rooms are almost as good. The units surround
a lawn with trees and picnic tables. All units are nonsmoking.
