Top Natural History Museum of Utah Hotel Reviews

The Grand America Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is beautiful down to the last detail. Service was excellent. My only complaint was the attitude of some of the staff. There are these young men dressed in suits you see around the hotel. They are not friendly. They seem more like bouncers than hotel staff. They do NOT give off the vibe of someone who wants to ensure you stay is comfortable. They seem bothered if you ask them anything. Who are they? Don't know. But they are employed by the hotel. Also, at dinner the person greeting us at the restaurant gave us the vibe that he was looking down on us. On the other hand, a morning waiter for breakfast was SUPER friendly and helpful. Can't remember his name. Short hispanic guy. They should give him a raise."

Charming 2-bedroom house, with large greatroom, quiet Avenues neighborhood

10/10 Excellent

"Clean house with friendly host"

University Guest House

"Excellent location if you have a student on campus at the newer dorms such as Trailhead. Super helpful staff. Not many food options walking distance. Rooms are clean but a little dated. My room had a mildly musty odor throughout my stay."

Two Bedroom Loft * Award Winning Beds * Down Town

8/10 Good

"I stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed my stay (aside from being on the 2nd floor lol). The host was great and communicated often. I didn't use the all the amenities that was offered bc I was busy but they were available (as advertised). Location was great, whether shopping, dining or a joy ride...it was near almost everything esp the airport.The outside needs an upgrade might even look sketchy to some but the apartment itself was clean, furnished and well stocked with toiletries, etc. The living area was kinda small and there's no actual dining area but overall, I wouldn't mind staying here again. It was a peaceful visit and quiet despite being in a busy area. But I thought it was a cool place for the weekend."
