HotelBest Western Plus Zion Canyon Inn & Suites
$98 off-peak, free hot breakfast, 0.9 miles to Zion entrance.

Open Sky Zion is a 80-acre glamping oasis with 13 luxury tents. Starlink wifi, private decks, and stargazing skylights come standard, plus a farm-to-table dinner at Black Sage. It’s not a traditional hotel, but the serenity and views are unmatched for the price. We’re chasing privacy, comfort, and a touch of wow for $500+ a night.
Coffee is available via in-room Keurig or lobby grab-and-go from 7–11 AM. You’re about 25 minutes from the gate. Leave by 6:50–7:00 AM to beat the early crowds and enjoy a calmer park entrance.
✅ BOOK IF: You are chasing a privacy-forward, nature-immersive stay with on-site dining. ❌ SKIP IF: You want a classic hotel with a pool and gym.
Views of western Zion, red rock cliffs and canyons
Luxury safari tents
Not available
Best for couples and solo travelers; families can fit in some tents (e.g., Juniper Berry) but it’s not a conventional family hotel.
March–May and September–October for milder temps and lighter crowds; winter visits are possible with desert quiet.
This is not a cookie-cutter hotel. You pay for privacy, space, and mountaintop-like Zion views. It’s excellent for a nature-immersive escape with top-tier creature comforts, but you won’t find a traditional pool, gym, or standard hotel cadence.
Skip if you crave a conventional hotel vibe, a pool, or ultra-dense amenities.
