Our Lodge

Zion Lodge is a division of the Xanterra Travel Collection. We offer a selection of comfortable and spacious accommodations, a year-round restaurant serving local favorites and a wide variety of ways to keep you entertained during your stay in Zion National Park. The beautiful Zion Lodge lies in the middle of a hiker’s paradise and is open year-round.

We offer positions in a variety of departments, including: Accounting, Engineering/Maintenance, Food & Beverage, Management, Reservations, Retail, Rooms/Lodging, Security & Fire Safety and Transportation. 

The name “Zion” means a place of peace and refuge. As a sanctuary with over 146,000 acres of cliffs, canyons, diverse plant and animal life, and uninterrupted beauty, Zion is well-named. Its massive sandstone walls, some as high as 3,800 feet, offer an opportunity for serenity and reflection for all who visit—and Zion Lodge offers the only in-park lodging inside this hiker’s paradise.

Housing & Meals 

Zion is a community living environment. Community living can be a great way to bond and create lifelong friendships with others who share similar interests and values, however, it does come with some challenges. Being prepared will help with your transition. Employee housing varies by position, however, most is dormitory-style with communal bathrooms. Each dorm room accommodates 2-3 people and includes beds, wardrobes/closets and a chair and desk. Laundry facilities are included. Dormitory buildings do not have cooking facilities. You must be 18 years of age or older to live in company housing and must be actively employed by Xanterra. Pets, candles and smoking are not permitted in company housing. 

Employee housing is available for couples as well. Please include your spouse's/significant other's name on your application if you are applying together. We also have RV sites with hookups for those who wish to live in their own RV trailer. Children and pets are welcome in our RV Park. 

The Employee Dining Room serves cafeteria-style meals that include a hot entree and side dishes, sandwiches, salads, fruits, cereals and beverages. Vegetarian options are available at each meal, however, the EDR Chef and Crew are not able to accommodate all dietary needs such as vegan or allergy-related restrictions. 

Connectivity

Although Zion does have cell service and Wi-Fi access, due to its remote nature, cell reception varies throughout the park, depending on your provider and plan, and Wi-Fi may be much slower than you're accustomed to.
