Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay here, and would definitely come again. They have a great place to buy a latte and we enjoyed a drink at one of the restaurant bars."

Comfort Inn & Suites Salt Lake City I-80 I-15 Downtown

8/10 Good

"Nice place, our room was clean, breakfast was good, staff friendly and efficient. The location is great.. easy to get downtown . I did not like the coffee that was used in the room and at breakfast. Seemed like a cheap brand. The only maintenance issue was the nighttime shade on the window. It had come out of its track and was difficult to use. We were also disappointed that the pool was shut down (it was green!) Overall, it was a nice place."
