Salt Lake City is not necessarily the city itself, but the Grand American Hotel. Walking in felt like stepping back into a time when elegance was the norm. Think shimmering chandeliers and a quiet sophistication you don't find just anywhere. My room was a welcome escape, the kind of space where you actually unwind. And that bed? Pure, unadulterated comfort. It's not about chasing trends here; it's about timeless quality and a sense of history. The staff? They elevate the experience. Genuine hospitality, a real pride in the hotel – it makes all the difference. Look, if you're in SLC, skip the predictable and book the Grand American. It's a taste of real class, a hotel with a soul. Trust a seasoned traveler on this one – it's worth it.

The standard review says enough. The hotel was beautiful—even more beautiful than I expected, considering the price I paid for the room. Everything was clean and well-kept. The service was excellent; however, I did, for one moment, feel as though I was being judged because I had children with me. They had excellent live music in the lounge. The grounds were beautiful to walk on. I can't say enough. If you can stay here, do it. It is worth the money.

No areas to sit outside other than the pool area, which was unfortunately closed because it is seasonal. The weather was phenomenal so we would’ve enjoyed sitting outside. The courtyard has no chairs. I felt this was a missed opportunity.
