If you appreciate creature comforts but can do without much in the way of local personality, this four-story hotel just outside the park fits the bill—rooms are quite comfortable, with plush bedding, spacious bathrooms, and modern appliances, and there's an outdoor pool and pleasant patio. Across the street you'll find Western-theme gift shops and attractions, such as the Bryce Canyon Country Rodeo.
Most rooms in this motel in the sweeping high desert 6 miles southwest of the park entrance and close to Red Canyon have pleasant views of the surrounding pine trees and the mountains in the distance. In addition to a variety of room types, the property offers separate cottages, as well as an RV park and campground. A grocery store, restaurant, and gas station are here, too.
This beautifully situated outpost of the popular Under Canvas luxury glamping brand in a juniper forest outside Widtsoe, a hiccup of a village about 15 miles north of the national park entrance, offers safari-chic canvas tents decked out with tasteful West Elm furnishings, private baths with eco-friendly products, and USB battery packs to keep your toys charged, plus a restaurant serving locally sourced breakfast and dinner fare. The tents sleep from two to six guests, and each has a wood-burning stove.
