Top Natural History Museum of Utah Hotel Reviews

The Grand America Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our start. Our room was the best. A king suite with a wonderful view. We loved the beautiful carpet and it felt so good on our feet! The bed was wonderful as were the pillows. Beautiful colors in the room. The bathroom area was huge, well lit and beautiful. We will for sure stay there again when we return to Salt Lake City. It was the best!"

Little America Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our favorite place to stay in SLC. Not the cheapest, but not the most expensive either. Nice property, well maintained. Very convenient in downtown SLC so you can walk or take TRAX wherever you want to go. TRAX can be picked up halfa block away and even go right to the airport. Nice restaurant, lobby, gift shop. Ample parking, though there is a separate charge for it. A little bit of a throwback to another era, but still fully modern."

Funky Brick Bungalow in Sugarhouse, SLC.

10/10 Excellent

"Located conveniently to downtown. House was fun and quirky. Beds and pillows are high quality. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, kitchen, and living/lounging space on each level, making it perfect for two families or families with older kids that need their own space. Older home so be prepared for the teens and young adults to complain there isn’t an electrical outlet always in reach. Host was wonderful and responded quickly to inquiries."
