We stayed for two nights in a tipi adjacent to the campground and inn. Reception was friendly, and the tipi was huge for four of us. It is completely empty - you bring your own sleeping mats and bags. We were glad we had four-season bags, as it got pretty cold overnight (this was late September). Clear skies were great for star-gazing though. Each tipi has a fire pit and the shop sells firewood - excellent for warmth and toasted marshmallows (also sold by the shop).

The tipi and toilet/shower block were all very clean. There is an outdoor pool and jacuzzi, which was lovely, especially the jacuzzi, and very quiet - the pool especially was probably too cold for anyone but us mad Brits.

Ruby's has more services in the inn (including at least one restaurant, and wifi, which was not strong enough outside the inn to connect, sadly), but we just used the diner next door, which was fine - cheap and filling, and warm! We ate there twice in the evening and once for breakfast - it does get busy with tour groups, but you just have to pick your moment.

Overall, a fun stay, if chilly. It's so close to Bryce it is hard to find fault - the only niggle is that the tipis are right by the main road, so there was some traffic noise, especially when everyone was heading into the park for sunrise - very quiet after dark though.

Choose Ruby's because of lacation near Bryce and reviews I had read. It did not disappoint, rooms were very clean, everyone was friendly and most of all it had the feel of real old west hotel which my wife and I fenjoyed. We have and will in the future recommend Ruby's to our friends and relatives.

RUBYS INN
:D
Lots of rooms! We got a room at night with no reservations in October.
We stayed here for a very low price, less than $130.
we were surprised because we pulled in at dusk and were afraid we would be paying
well over $200 for a night at a fancy place like this.
It is right by giftshops, a cowboy buffet, a restaurant, and a lake.
and beyond all that is Bryce canyon.
the buffet has lots of wonderful things to eat including RIBS!!! all you can eat RIBS!!!
and soft serve frozen yogurt.
The lobby is spacious and rustic. there is an indoor pool and Jacuzzi.
the mattress was kingsize and i slept like a dream.
they accepted our 3 pets.
our room had a view of the lake.
wifi!
clean
luxurious

Ruby's Inn is one of a handful of accomodations located outside Bryce Canyon National Park. It offers lodging for both campers and individuals wishing to stay inside. The rooms were clean and the location very good; you are literally a couple of minutes from the park entrace. The Bryce Canyon Shuttle, availible May through October has a stop in front of the inn and is a very conventient way to see some of the park highlights.
