Zion National Park: named for an ancient Hebrew word meaning “sanctuary” or “place of refuge;” a stunning spectacle of narrow canyons, enormous sandstone monoliths, hanging gardens, waterfalls and arches located in southwestern Utah. Comfort Inn St. George: a great lodging “place of refuge” or “sanctuary” while you explore Zion National Park’s unparalleled scenery; conveniently located along I-15 off exit 6.
Located only 45 minutes from your lodging accommodations at Comfort Inn St. George, Zion National Park is Utah’s oldest and most popular national park. It hosts an average of 2.5 million visitors every year. Its most-visited section, Zion Canyon, is home to the park’s best-known natural landmarks, including Angels Landing, the Court of the Patriarchs and The Great White Throne, which is probably the most-photographed formation in the park. Visitors must ride a mandatory shuttle up the canyon’s scenic drive from April to October. Besides providing stress-free transportation, the shuttle drivers offer narration on the park’s history, geology, flora and fauna during the ride. While the views from the buses’ windows provide a great preview of the park’s magnificent landscape, hiking the canyon’s many trails offers a better perspective to help each visitor truly appreciate its natural wonders. Zion Canyon boasts trails for all ability levels, from a quick stroll along the ¼-mile Weeping Rock Trail to the steep, 2.5-mile ascent to the top of Angels Landing.
After a day of oohing and ahing along Zion National Park’s trails, return to your lodging headquarters at Comfort Inn St. George for a dip in the pool or a soak in one of our hot tubs. You can also watch satellite TV on the flat-screen television in your room. Our other amenities include an exercise room, a sun deck, free continental breakfast, guest laundry services, and vending machines. If you are up for a night on the town after exploring Zion, great restaurants, a family fun center, and a six-screen movie theater are all less than a mile away. Lodging at Comfort Inn on your next trip to Southern Utah makes a lot of sense. Call us today to book your hotel room for an enjoyable, memorable stay.
