3 Best Hotels in Park City and the Southern Wasatch, Utah

Background Illustration for Hotels

Chain hotels and motels dot I–15 all along the Wasatch Front and nearly always have availability. Every small town on the back side of the range has at least one good bed-and-breakfast, and most towns have both independent and chain motels. Condominiums dominate Park City lodging, but you also find high-end hotels, luxurious lodges, and well-run bed-and-breakfast inns. All this luxury means prices here tend to be higher than in other areas in the state during the winter. Prices drop significantly in the warmer months, when package deals or special rates are offered. Lodging in Provo tends to be most expensive during the week. Make reservations well in advance for busy ski holidays like Christmas, Presidents' Day, and Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and during January's Sundance Film Festival. As the mountain country is often on the cool side, lodgings at higher elevations generally don't have air-conditioning.

Chateau Après

$$ | 1299 Norfolk Ave., UT, 84060, USA

If privacy isn't a priority, men can rent one of 32 beds in the male dorm rooms for $45 a night, which includes breakfast.

  • Comfortable rooms
  • Close to the slopes
  • Longtime local owners
