Our St. George hotel makes a great base camp for visiting Zion National Park
Comfort Suites is an excellent St. George hotel option for anyone planning to visit southern Utah. Famous for its pleasant weather, and close proximity to scenic wonders such as Zion National Park, St. George is a perfect year-round recreation destination. St. George visitors enjoy a wide range of activities, including fishing or boating at Sand Hollow or Quail Creek state parks, hiking in Snow Canyon State Park, playing a round of golf at one of the area’s scenic courses, or learning about the area’s history at the Jacob Hamblin Home or other pioneer sites. All these recreation options are within an hour of your comfortable room at our St. George hotel.
The most popular tourist destination within an hour of our St. George hotel is Zion National Park, a 229-square-mile cliff-and-canyon landscape formed by millions of years of erosion. The park is full of forested plateaus, narrow canyons, and rock monoliths that tower 2,000 to 3,000 feet above the canyon floor. Besides its scenery, the park also boasts staggering ecological diversity, including 75 species of mammals, 271 species of birds and over 900 plant species! The park’s varied landscape features everything from hanging gardens caused by water seepage through porous sandstone to inhospitable desert environments that see little moisture. The Comfort Suites is a perfect St. George hotel to make your base camp for visiting this unmatched scenic wonder.
In addition to being close to Zion National Park, Comfort Suites, your top St. George hotel choice, is also within 45 minutes of the refreshing alpine scenery of the Pine Valley Mountains. When you visit Pine Valley, do not miss the Pine Valley Chapel, a testament of pioneer determination and the oldest LDS meetinghouse in continuous use. Built in the 1860s by shipbuilder Ebenezer Bryce, the namesake of Bryce Canyon National Park, many say the chapel resembles an overturned ship that would float if the area experienced a major flood. During the summer, the chapel is open for tours.
