Hotel Hyatt House Salt Lake City/Sandy (Sandy, USA)

The size and standard of the guestrooms have everyone from business travelers, families and long-term stayers writing rave reviews. Many describe the well-designed spaces as perfect, with separate kitchens that feature all the amenities of home, comfy sitting room, silent sleeping area and plush bathroom.

Fitness fanatics love the array of amenities to assist with their exercise regimes. With numerous treadmills, ellipticals and bikes, there is always something to work with, even during busy times. There's space enough for free-weights, as well as a hot tub in which to relax tired muscles.

Perpetual praise is heaped upon the breakfast buffet and the staff that operate it. Starting early and finishing late, your morning meal consists of an array of hot and cold options to satisfy all culinary preferences. The speciality omelette chef is routinely singled out for his masterful offerings.

The most prevalent concern of patrons is the noise from the freeway at night. Reviewers recommend booking an east-side room, which are less affected. If the hotel is at full capacity, however, these requests cannot always be met, so you may want to pack earplugs, just in case.

Negative reviews for this hotel are at a premium. Occasionally, a guest moans about light flooding in through windows, a hot room because of motion-sensor operated AC units, and cold food at breakfast or a housekeeping hiccup, but these isolated incidences are glitches in an otherwise flawless service history.
