SpringHill Suites by Marriott Springdale Zion National Park

10/10 Excellent

"This was our fifth stay here, and once again, we only have wonderful things to say about the hotel! The staff is absolutely amazing, the hotel is clean, welcoming, and comfortable, and the breakfast is truly delicious. The only disappointment has been that, on each of our visits, the jacuzzi was not working. Unfortunately, during our most recent stay, the pool also had to be temporarily closed due to an incident involving other guests. Of course, that was no fault of the hotel, and it certainly didn’t take away from our overall experience. The location is perfect, with breathtaking views, beautiful scenic walking areas, and some of the best restaurants all within walking distance. We absolutely love staying here and can’t wait to return in the fall. Fall is my favorite time to visit both the hotel and Zion, and we’re already looking forward to our next stay!"
