“Great location and super convenient to the best restaurants in downtown Salt Lake City. I liked the fact that I could walk only a block or two to anything that I needed. The staff there was very helpful and attentive.”

• We liked the room.
• It was too noisy at night.

“We enjoyed the Perry Hotel but were unable to sleep at night because of the noise in the parking lot. There are 4 bars within 1 block and people were partying in the parking lot after the bars had closed until 4:30 a.m. I'm surprised the hotel doesn't do something about this. I won't stay there again.”

• Location is extremely convenient to Salt Palace Convention center.
• The rooms are extremely small but elegant. No wi-fi connection. There is a business center though.

“This charming historic hotel is conveniently located for a solo business traveler. The tiny but elegant room reminds European hotels but it has good water pressure. The breakfast buffet at the adjacent restaurant was very reasonable. Enjoyed free star bucks and tea at the lobby all day long.”

• 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.”

• Beautiful room, canopy over very comfortable bed.
• Brunch was cold.

“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.”

• The rooms were very romantic and nicely decorated.
• Unknown $9.00 charge for parking. Paper thin walls.

“The hotel staff was less than professional and unhelpful when I asked them to explain things like the $9.00 charge to park on the premises. The other guests were not happy to see my young family entering the hotel. The rooms were very nice, but the overall experience was less than enjoyable.”

• Parking at the Peery is in an open air paid parking lot only.

“The Peery Hotel is close to a number of activities in downtown Salt Lake. The hotel is full of early 20th Century grace and style that today's cookie cutter hotels lack.”

• they gave us a room that was not vacant, it was full of clothes and toilitaries.

“Nice looking hotel, but the staff seemed unsure what they were doing. We were put into an occupied room, charged twice for the room and our children had to sleep on the floor because they had run out of rooms with two beds.. It was a dissapointing night.”

• Very friendly staff & clean Nice hotel
• no pool, very small rooms some bathrooms don't even have tub, parking location isn't secure.

“When we first got to the hotel we realized the rooms were very small...too small. So we requested an upgrade in room size. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. It is an historic hotel, originally built in the early 1900's it has been renovated, but keeps the same feel of its day. Original doors windows decor etc. There is no pool, or in room movies...bathrooms are very small some with no bathtubs. We enjoyed our stay because of the upgrade in room.”

• 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.”

• We loved the elegant atmosphere and the parking was so close. The wine and appatizers were a wonderful touch.
• Christophers, the resturant attached to the hotel was not open all day.

“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. A number of great resturants are within easy walking distance.”

• 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.”

• Major problem was addressed, but only AFTER I stated my displeasure several times.

“Upon arrival we were delighted with the elegant and spacious lobby which was very tastefully designed and appointed. At the moment I stepped up to the front desk, it was apparent that something was wrong. There was no friendly greeting despite the fact there were several staff there and I was the only customer there. When I told them my name I the agent rustled through some papers and shoved a letter in my direction and stating that "there was a booking error" and we would not be staying at the Peery Hotel. I was told we were being put up at the Best Western Motel down the road and that the Peery would take care of the Motel bill. I was clearly disappointed and displeased.”

“The overall hotel may qualify as a "3-star" but the rooms you get, are not of that quality. We had this happen in Idaho, Las Vegas, and Salt Lake City. The Peery hotel has remodeled older rooms which are very, very small. They are like a box, and the shower was horrible!! So small you could hardly turn around. No bathtub.”

• The staff was very nice and extremely helpful at any time of day. The bathrobes were a nice touch and they gave free water.
• Room was really tiny, the temperature was uncomfortable and hard to adjust, you could hear everything in the hallway, the water pressure/temp was constantly changing during showers

“Although the staff was friendly and helpful, I would not go back to this hotel. The room was extremely tiny; it had a bed, desk, TV, and a sink in the room. The bathroom was really narrow and you could not move around much in the small shower. The water pressure constantly changed to a small trickle and the temperature would change with it. The room temperature was always hot/warm and rather uncomfortable. The bed was right next to the door and you could hear everything that was going on in the hallway.”

It was clean and comfortable although the rooms were small.Coffee and hot chocolate pots were available if you were one of the first arrivals in the morning, otherwise none was left. No other continental breakfast was available although there is a restaurant in the hotel. Don't be surprised when you have to pay $9 to park you car each day.”

“The Peery was very nice and had a comfortable, old fashioned feeling to it. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the people were very friendly. The room was a little cramped, but was nicely dressed. We were on the street side and so had traffic noises, but that was normal and expected, and didn't cause a problem. However, somebody was making a lot of loud noise somewhere in the hallway. It wasn't a guest and we suspected it might have been some kind of delivery or maintenance. It was very loud and woke us up and continued for quite a while. About the time I was ready to "give up" and call the desk, the noise stopped.We would stay there again, and we were very pleased with the rate we were given.”

“We were pleased with our stay at the Peerey Hotel. It was close to most of the eating places that we would have chosen. The only thing I think needs changed is that it needs to be more handicap useable, hand rails in bathrooms and showers. The furnishings of the time period are really great.”

“The mattress was as old as the hotel, built in 1910. Despite it's antique charm, the room and bathroom were very small, the walls were paper thin. We could hear everything going on outside, including some drunk people in the back at 2:30 in the morning. This hotel should be a 1 or 2 star, not a 3 star.”
