Garner Hotel Salt Lake City Airport by IHG

Budget Comfort Just Minutes from Salt Lake’s Music Scene

Modern, no-frills comfort meets convenience at the Royal Inn Airport Salt Lake City. Located just 10 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City and only 3.4 miles from Salt Lake City International Airport, this hotel offers a simple, clean, and well-equipped base for concert-goers who value affordability and location. Rooms come with free WiFi, a flat-screen cable TV, and a coffee maker—perfect for that post-show wind-down or early morning refuel.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel’s location is a major win—just a short drive from downtown venues and hot spots. You won’t have to stress about beating traffic or missing encores. Plus, being slightly outside the city center means it’s quieter at night, making it easier to relax after a high-energy show. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, there’s enough flexibility to fit most schedules, especially for travelers flying in or out around concert dates.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends who want a budget base before hitting the venues
• Solo travelers flying in to catch a favorite act
• Couples enjoying a concert weekend getaway
• Fans seeking a quieter place to crash post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who just need the basics

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel’s central location means you’re just minutes from downtown dining, with plenty of late-night and local options within easy reach. Plus, with an in-room coffee maker, mornings after a late night are a little easier.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t offer nightlife, it’s a short Uber or drive to the heart of Salt Lake City’s bars, lounges, and music joints. Whether you're looking for an afterparty vibe or a chill cocktail bar, downtown has you covered.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the affordable pricing, friendly staff, and easy airport access. It’s often described as a “no-frills but clean and convenient” place to stay, especially for those catching early flights or attending events in the city.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury stay—some travelers mention that the furnishings are a bit dated and the amenities are basic. But for the price and location, many find it a fair trade-off.
