Little America Hotel
Little America rarely disappoints. The coffee shop is wonderful! The gift shop has many unique items that are delightful! I travel alone, and I feel very safe at Little America, and rarely stay anywhere else when I'm in SLC.

The Grand America Hotel
Extremely nice and well kept and spacious with all of the amenities you’d expect from a high-end hotel. Just frankly not my design style.

Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City
Very clean hotel, staff is nice. Parking is too expensive. No free parking for guests. If i am paying $300 per night i expect a free parking.
