Gordon, Nick, and all the personnel at the Thunderbird Hotel are so helpful, welcoming, and professional. The rooms are nice, clean, and updated. We look forward to seeing them each time our family travels down to southern Utah. This has become a go to spot for us several times a year. 10 stars out of 5!
