Where to stay?

Summer in Park City Utah,My Next Pin

Park City features various upscale hotels; however, our favorite is the St.Regis Deer Valley.

Situated in the middle of Deer Valley Ski Resort, this hotel offers  spacious rooms/suites, a fantastic spa, infinity pool, jacuzzi, 24-hour butler service, and gourmet cuisine.

This nature-refined hotel has two main entrances, one at the valley’s base and the other towards the top. When arriving at the base, you get a chance to use the funicular, a glass cable car that takes you up on a scenic ride to the hotel lobby. If you check in at the top entrance, you can drive up the valley on a charming route that takes your breath away.

We had a blast staying at this hotel. Our choice of room was one of their suites. We enjoyed our coffee every morning overlooking the spectacular Deer Valley Resort, followed by breakfast at their main dining room, with slopeside views. Later, we relaxed by the pool and jacuzzi, followed by a massage and facial at the spa. Our nights usually ended around their gorgeous courtyard fireplace, with delicious dinner.
In addition, this hotel features extensive room service, which we also loved.
Truly a perfect resort experience.

The hotel is close to Park City Main Street and all outdoor sports year-round.

Other options for hotels:
The Waldorf Astoria Park City
Montage Deer Valley
