Little America Hotel Salt Lake City
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Worth booking if you want a top-rated downtown hotel with a pool and gym, and you accept a price more than double the local median. Budget travellers should skip it, as guests also complain about extra charges for parking and food.

Little America is our Luxury pick for Salt Lake City. It suits travellers who want to stay downtown, care about clean rooms and want a gym and pool on site.
It is a 4-star hotel, not a 5-star. Our method prefers five-star hotels for the Luxury slot, and a four-star fallback has to score at least 8.5. This one scores 8.9.
Skip it if you are counting every euro. The nightly rate is high, and guests say parking and food add to the bill.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at 500 South Main Street in Downtown Salt Lake City. Guests give the location 9.4 out of 10 and mention shops, public transport links and major highways nearby.
By our straight-line estimates, Salt Lake Temple and Temple Square are each about 1.4 km away, roughly 18 minutes on foot. The Cathedral of the Madeleine is about 1.5 km, around 19 minutes. Those are walkable for most people, though actual routes may be longer.
If you drive, budget for parking. Guests flag it as an extra cost, and the amount is not confirmed in our data.
What guests say
The score is 8.9 out of 10 from 1,926 reviews, which put the hotel joint first of 7 eligible properties in the provider sample. That is a large review base and a strong result.
Praise centres on the central location and on housekeeping. Guests describe tidy, well-kept rooms and high cleaning standards.
The complaint is about value. Room rates are seen as reasonable by some, but there are frequent comments about additional costs for parking and food.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
Reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults put the hotel at €331.27 a night. The sample median was €154.16, so this costs more than twice the middle of the market. These are not live quotes; check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, Garner Hotel Salt Lake City Airport by IHG, is a 2-star with an 8.0 score at €81.64. Our Best Value pick, Homewood Suites By Hilton Salt Lake City Airport, is a 3-star with the same 8.9 score at €154.16. Both names point to the airport area, so check their distance from downtown before comparing like for like.
What the extra money buys here is the downtown address and the listed facilities: gym, pool, restaurant, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, garden and terrace. Opening times and fees for these are not confirmed.
