Top Pony Express National Historic Trail Hotel Reviews

Little America Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location is great and my room and bathroom were so spacious. The bed was super comfy! My only quibble would be the shower/tub. It had that 80s vibe to it - old fixtures, weird water pressure, the tub didn’t drain even though the stopper was open all the way. But again - overall very lovely place and great location."

Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City

8/10 Good

"A little smaller of a room than I expected, but nice nonetheless."

The Grand America Hotel

Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek

10/10 Excellent

"Todo excelente, mis Padres y Yo quedamos enamorados de su hotel , de su servicio , de su comida , su personal excelente , la Señorita Mariana de la cocina y un caballero muy amable que es Mexicano , no recuerdo su nombre ahora , fueron muy amables conmigo , las meseras , la señorita que nos ingresó al buffet , nos atendió súper bien . Algo que no sabíamos hasta hoy !, que la Familia Marriot fueron Pioneros que llegaron a Utah con el resto de los Santos , ahora entiendo porque son tan bendecidos con esa marca. Esperamos vernos el próximo año en abril cuando sea las puertas abiertas del Templo . Muy agradecidos y 100% recomendables …"
