Top Central City Hotel Reviews

Anniversary Inn - 5th South

10/10 Excellent

"Very pleased with our experience!"

Hilton Garden Inn Salt Lake City Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Check in experience was great, friendly staff. Room very clean and exactly what I expected based on pictures. The only minor issue was the restaurant did not have a couple of the menu items we were interested in so that was a little disappointing. The waitress was very apologetic and very nice."

Park Inn by Radisson, Salt Lake City Downtown

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff. Room was very clean. Very big flat screen TV. AC worked pretty good, August 2026, still very warm in SLC. If your up to a half mile walk there are lots of restaurants for you to choose from. Starbucks is across the street. Laundry machine was not working, Luckily I didn't have to do laundry while I was there. Continental breakfast was very small. Coffee, cereal, muffins, and some fruit. Stayed two nights, Good stay overall. If I ever happen to stay there again I would request a room in the back. Front of hotel has the street and afternoon sun to contend with. The street is not that busy so road noise wasn't a factor, more for the sun, in the summer anyway. Forgive any typos."

Kimpton Hotel Monaco Salt Lake City by IHG

8/10 Good

"Perfect hotel, very clean, modern rooms, valet parking, coffee bar & restarant. Located in the arts center of SLC. Dog friendly - NO EXTRA FEE for having your pet (no size or weight limit on pets). The only issue i experienced was a 1 hour delay for check-in; they said they had afull house the previous day & housekeeping was overwhelmed."
