Downtown Salt Lake City is built around Temple Square, the walled 10-acre plaza that anchors the city’s skyline and remains its top visitor attraction.
A Downtown Built Around One Landmark
Temple Square’s grounds, gardens, and visitor centers sit free and open to the public, and the surrounding blocks of hotels, shopping, and the Salt Palace Convention Center are all within a few minutes’ walk.
A Base for the City and the Mountains
Downtown hotels put you close to City Creek Center and the convention center for a city stay, while still leaving Utah’s ski resorts and national parks within a reasonable drive for anyone extending the trip.
