4. Anniversary Inn - South Temple

Central City, 2.8 km from University of Utah

"Absolutely loved this place! The rooms were so fun and unique, and the staff was very kind and helpful. My only issue was that the stairs up to the bathtub in my room (the third floor jungle suite) were very small and slightly sloped, so it was kinda hard to get in and out of the tub. It seemed like the other rooms I saw probably don't have this issue? But all in all would definitely stay again!"

Salt Lake City Marriott City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable room with easy check in/out process, valet service was excellent and worth the fee. Overall décor is dated but not to the point of being a problem, but worth noting if you’re looking for something more modern."

University Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"We were surprised that this guest house was right next to the university and at first we said...Oh No! Are we going to be staying in a dorm?? But the staff (and they looked like students) were extremely sweet and they helped us find good places to eat nearby. Plus the place and the room were spotless and the guest house is located on a previous fort, so there are lots of beautiful older homes and small parks right there so it was a lovely area to explore and we felt very safe. It was located close to major sites and the included breakfast was also a great plus. I would really recommend it."
