Cedar Breaks Lodge - 3 Nights, Brian Head, USA

The location is fabulous for ski season, and the drive to Zion and Bryce is beautiful, though it takes a solid hour and 20 minutes. We had a clean room and impeccable service, and would stay again in a heartbeat. Our one-bedroom worked for two adults and kids aged 5 and 9 for a week, but only just. Given the layout, I’d recommend something a bit larger. The shower also has a high step, which could be tough for kids and, I imagine, older guests.

The pool and hot tub were warm, clean, and a great place to unwind, and the common areas were cared for without feeling stuffy. The location is great, right in Brian Head with quick access to town and the resort, plus mountain air and views. Parking was convenient, though the garage is a little tight with a bigger vehicle but manageable. Check-in was smooth, and the front desk was friendly and helpful from the start. After the long drive up, it was a relief to find a quiet, organized, well-kept room. It was spotless too, with fresh linens, a clean bathroom, no odd smells, and everything working. A comfortable, low-stress weekend reset. I’d happily return.

The suite fit our family of five perfectly, and the scenic drive was a treat on our off-season trip. The pool area was great, with two hot tubs, a steam room, and a sauna. The gym looked over the pool and had a nice mix of weights and treadmills. With no snow, it would’ve been perfect. Since it was off season, the restaurant had limited hours and options, and the exterior looked rather dingy.

We were in Building 2, facing the Navajo Express quad lift, a handy starting point for skiing or boarding on the wide green and blue runs. Our weekday visit three weeks ago was quiet, and we got a few inches of fresh powder on two of the four nights. The room’s climate and fireplace controls were easy to use, and the underground garage was warm, simple to park in, and close to the elevators. Roads were clear when we arrived and when we headed out toward I-15. Food for cooking or microwaving and hoodies in town were reasonably priced. Hilton Vacation Club Cedar Breaks Brian Head has three separate buildings. We’d love to book this Hilton property again.
