The Spotlight on SureStay by Best Western Salt Lake City Downtown

Affordable Comfort Close to the Salt Lake City Music Scene

Modern and budget-friendly, SureStay by Best Western Salt Lake City Downtown offers a convenient stay just outside the heart of downtown. Located on South Main Street, this hotel puts you about five minutes’ drive from major entertainment venues and the Salt Palace Convention Center. The vibe is laid-back and practical, perfect for music lovers looking for a no-fuss home base.

Why Concert-goers love it

With its easy access to Salt Lake City’s top venues and a quick 15-minute drive from the airport, this hotel is a smart pick for fans flying in for a show. The hotel’s quiet, residential-adjacent location helps you wind down after a night of live music, and the 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins a breeze. Free WiFi means you can upload your concert clips without a hitch, and you'll love having a fridge and coffee maker in your room for those post-show snacks.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends heading to a concert weekend
Solo travelers chasing their bucket-list artist
Couples looking to pair music with a mini-getaway
Fans seeking a quiet recovery zone after the encore
Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room comes with a refrigerator and coffee maker, and several local diners and fast-casual spots are within walking distance. You'll find late-night bites close by, and the front desk staff can point you to the best spots open after midnight. No breakfast buffet here, but nearby cafés open mid-morning to help you recover from late nights.

Nightlife Options

You're just minutes from Salt Lake City’s growing bar and lounge scene. Whether you're into live music bars, craft cocktail lounges, or laid-back pubs, you'll find options a short Uber or Lyft ride away. While the hotel itself doesn’t host live events, its central location means you’re never far from the action.

What People Say

Guests consistently mention the hotel’s great value and friendly staff. Travelers love the easy parking, quiet rooms, and the convenience of being close to both the airport and downtown venues. Many reviews highlight the cleanliness of the rooms and the reliable WiFi, perfect for streaming or planning your evening out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel is a bit older and could use a few updates. The seasonal outdoor pool is a plus—but only available in warmer months. Also, while the location is central, it’s best to have a car or rideshare app handy, especially late at night.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking for a budget-friendly, comfortable crash pad close to downtown Salt Lake City, SureStay by Best Western hits all the right notes.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Julie E, Salt Lake City

It was loud and drug infested. There was only a sheet and the bed cover, no blanket at all. The water temperature was way too hot and burnt a hand. Mold in the shower. Towels were too small, only had one wash cloth in the motel. Pretty sure there was prostitutes hanging outside our room. We had to put in ear plugs and turn on the fan to drown them out. Will never stay there again. Almost went somewhere else all together.

Liked: The employees were nice.
Disliked: Was not impressed with this location

Squatters roam the SureStay

Liked: Staff was nice.
Disliked: The hot floors, the hot room, the meth heads littered everywhere, the other "occupants" smoking cigarettes outside people's doors, the bathroom in 210 is completely gross. The blood spot in the bathtub? The gross gunk behind the bathroom door in the bottom right. poor TV quality, 480i? What year is it. The bathroom flooring not finished.

Superb

Liked: We always stay here when we go to Salt Lake City it is perfect place to stay and relax.
Disliked: I would like to see them center the TVs with the beds. It’s really hard to see the TV when your in the bed farthest from the TV. Especially in the two queen bed rooms. It would be simple to move the TV wall mount over or get a swivel TV mount.
