• Joe at the door was amazing. Very friendly and helpful with guiding us around town.
• The rooms are small but well appointed. My room did not have a full length mirror.

“This 100 year old hotel is full of charm. The rooms are small but with high ceilings you do not feel cramped. Each room is well appointed and the beds are new and super comfy. The staff is very friendly and know the area well.”

• Tempur-pedic mattresses, I-home alarm clocks and fast Wi-Fi internet access.
• Restaurant on site no longer serves breakfast.

“My husband and I frequently stay at Peery Hotel whenever we travel to Salt Lake City. One thing we love about this 1910 hotel is that every so often it gets renovated to some extent. On our most recent trip we were pleasantly surprised by some changes at the hotel. First of all, the exterior of the building has been painted a brilliant shade of wine, this fresh look has brought new life to this old beauty. As usual, we were greeted by the Bell person and I think he has been there for the last three years or so. When we arrived to the room we were happy to see some modern upgrades to the guest rooms including new Tempur-pedic mattresses, new bedding and best of all the new I-home alarm clock and i-pod docking station. As usually the service was great. One word of advice, this charming old hotel was built in 1910 therefore the standard guest rooms and bathrooms are smaller than what you might find in a brand name or franchise hotel. But if you are looking to stay outside of the box, the Peery is for you.”

• I loved the decor. It was also very quiet and although the hotel was full, it seemed live we were the only ones there.
• The heating seemed old and didn't work to keep the room warm. The bed was extremely hard.

“This was a fun place to stay. The decor was wonderful and the staffs were so helpful and friendly. It was very clean and well maintained. I had a small problem with the window blind but it was corrected in a timely manner. I loved the old fashioned feel of the hotel. I will definitely go back. The one draw back was that the rooms were on the small side. I think it was worth it though for the other extras.”

• This historic hotel lived true to its character. It was beautiful inside as well as conveniently located.
• The wireless internet connection was horrible until we received the booster from the front desk after 3 complaints.

“This hotel is ideal for a visit to downtown SLC. It has a very homey feel to it. We did run into a problem on check in when we were given a room with one queen size bed. This is unfortunate as we are family of four.2 adults and 2 children. I had phoned the hotel ahead of time to ensure that I would have a room with 2 beds. I was assured that it was no problem. But when I checked in it was. The front desk staff did some amazing switching around and it all ended up for the best. I can't put my children in their hotel room. When it came to check out, we had to go over the same situation all over again as they had over charged me for the upgrade. It just was not that pleasant of a situation, otherwise it is a great hotel.”

• The lobby was very beautiful.
• Small room, vanity, and bed. Ac blowing in your face while in bed, very street noisy.

“I'm sorry to have to complain, but the room was very inadequate, being very small, old, street noisy, and not having any room at the sink vanity area. We were scheduled to stay 2 nights. We checked out after the first night because it was so bad. We were not impressed, and very disappointed.”

• It was pretty inside.
• The rooms were small with only one full size bed in each room.

“I would not recommend it and I would never stay there again. There is no airport shuttle, no complimentary breakfast. Tiny room that you get with the smaller bed (full size) and when we asked for a roll away they were out because they only have 3 of them. And there wouldn't have been room for one anyway.”

“Overall, it was very comfortable. It was an older hotel but the remodel and updating of the rooms preserved the integrity of the hotel. We will probably stay there again sometime.”

“Very personal looking boutique style hotel. My room was small, but as I was only there to sleep, that was not a big deal. The bed was very comfortable, the shower had great water pressure. The free wireless Internet was a surprise as most hotels charge at least $10 a day for that. I will be staying there on my next trip to SLC”

• It had an old "1930's" sort of feel-decorated to the period and quite elegant.
• We pointed out to a worker that the back door was not shutting tight he looked at us like we were idiots and gave it a kick to shut it.

“We actually really liked the hotel. I was not real sure at first, but was quickly won over by its charm. My son said it felt like the setting of "an old mystery, murder novel". We liked it. The rooms are small but charming.”

• Generally a disappointment however the water pressure was great which provided a 3 star shower.
• Bad smell in lobby, toilet flooded, alarm rang at midnight, no phone book in room, could not control the temperature, pay to park, staff didn't care.

“From the second we entered our room we were let down. The staff admitted that we were given a one person room, and that they often have problems controlling the temperature in the rooms. At 11:30 at night, my spouse spent quite some time trying to unclog an old toilet, then it flooded over the next morning. One could barely step in front of the bathroom sink without bumping into the toilet. It was a free standing sink in the bathroom with no counter top to place toiletries. there was no phone book in the room and the alarm rang at midnight waking me up. The street was noisy below our room which was annoying during the night. Poor location. The lobby had a musty odour. We ate breakfast at another hotel which offered it to us for free because they heard of our miserable experience. We paid anyway because it wasn't their fault. They had more sympathy than the staff at Peery Hotel had for us. Oh, they did offer us a discount for our unfortunate experience. We go to Salt Lake City quite often. Thanks.”

“We really enjoyed our stay at the Peery in Salt Lake City. It is an old hotel early 1900s, but the cozy rooms have been redone beautifully. They have an antique feel, even the bathroom was tiled in white and black, with a pedestal sink. The doorman was extremely helpful, inquiring as to whether we had dinner plans and offering to make reservations for us at the restaurant we spoke of. The lobby is elegant, filled with antiques.”

• Historic looking and unique
• Hotel rooms extremely small, no pool, expensive parking, terrible bathrooms, no continental breakfast

“While this hotel is a historic landmark of Salt Lake, it is better suited for business travelers that don't want the modern conveniences of high speed internet, continental breakfasts or pool/spa ammenities. Definately not a fun vacation hotel. Rooms are extremely small and priceline purchases as given lowest priority. Rooms were very small, only 1 queen bed with the small vanity in the room. Bathroom was in a narrow hallway with a small shower next to it. If you are looking for hotel with historic charm and somewhat near downtown without the frills of a large room or hotel extras, this would be a good hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone wanting modern conveniences, fun ammenities or vacation travelers with family.”

“Peery Hotel has and elegant antique charm and atmosphere. Christophers, the resturant at the Peery is wonderful with a great bar. Late afternoon, hourdourves and wine are surved at no cost to regestered guests. Parking is very close. The Peery is located very close to downtown and the Gateway Mall.

• Excellent staff, wonderful lobby, outstanding restaurant, quiet and elegant
• The room (219) was way too small. Air conditioner too loud and only one setting on it (high)

“The historic Hotel Peery is an escape from the boring cookie-cutter downtown hotels in midtown Salt Lake City. It's gracious and elegant, but not stuffy. The staff is excellent, and the on-property restaurant, a steakhouse, was truly a delight. Even on a packed Saturday night with a convention in town, the waitstaff gave us the most prompt attention, quick service and even a complimentary dessert. What a treat! The Peery is my new favorite hotel in Salt Lake - avoid the Hilton, Little America and other bland places (unless you enjoy ant-like conformity). The only bad part of the hotel is that it has a couple of really, really tiny rooms - rooms so small that there is no space for even a sitting chair. In these tiny rooms, the bathroom door can't be shut unless you practically stand in the tub. When you confirm a reservation, avoid room 219. There might some other ultra small rooms, too. The other rooms are spacious - and all rooms are clean, elegant and tastefully decorated.”
