Hotel Overview

Just one mile from the park, the Best Western Plus Ruby's Inn, Bryce Canyon City, Utah, is a long-running gateway to Bryce Canyon, with comfortable, well-appointed rooms, cable television, a microwave, a refrigerator, and free wireless internet, an indoor heated pool and a seasonal outdoor pool with a hot tub, a basketball court, mountain-bike rentals, free parking, and meeting space for groups. The hotel welcomes pets.

The setting puts a basin of golden spires a mile away, with a striking sandstone state park and an alpine monument within a short drive. Horseback rides, ATV tours, and a Western dinner show wait just outside the door.

Bryce Canyon City exists for the wonder just up the road, where Bryce Canyon National Park spills row upon row of red, orange, and white hoodoos, the stone spires carved by frost and water, down a series of natural amphitheaters. High on the plateau, the air stays cool and the night skies turn dark, and nearby Kodachrome Basin, Cedar Breaks, and Grand Staircase-Escalante add still more red-rock country to explore.
