A friend and I stayed here at the courtyard Marriott in Cottonwood Heights just this past December 29-31. We were attending a wedding nearby. My friend and I were sharing a room. It was a two queen bed room. Nothing fancy. But there definitely was enough space for the both of us. We were both equally able to spread out and be very comfortable for those two nights that we were there. I can't say that I care for the shower in the bathrooms, but they were tolerable. The thing that I didn't like is that the shower does not have a full enclosure and the water pressure isn't great either. The rooms are clean. There are more than enough towels for the both of us. And one thing that is so important that I really appreciated. Was that all the electrical outlets in our room worked. The morning of the 30th I was able to dine in the hotel, café area, the lobby. They serve a limited amount but still more than enough Starbucks, coffee items. I myself stuck to drinking water. The cashier where you would place your order, at the counter, was nice enough to give me ice for my water bottle. Otherwise, I would've had to have gone to other floors to look for an ice machine. That was another thing that was kind of inconvenient. My room was located on the first floor, same as the lobby and check-in desk. That was great. However, there is no ice machine on the first floor. So, be advised, if you were somebody who uses a lot of advice all throughout the day, you might want to be on the floor, where there's an ice machine, conveniently located near your room. Just something to think about. The girlfriend of mine that I traveled with, she arrived earlier than I did. There was no problem, checking in. The woman at the desk at the time was very friendly. However, later in the evening, when I arrived, the woman there was not so nice. I don't know what rubbed her the wrong way or why she was having a bad day, but it would've been so much nicer to have been welcomed to the hotel for my stay by somebody who not only understands how different their attitude can influence the guest's feelings about the hotel and their stay, but the whole experience from check-in til check-out too. Essentially, the person who checked me in, didn't really seem to care who I was. All she did was ask for my ID and tossed two keys at me. Literally, that was the extent of my check-in experience. For that reason, the one less star. I really like the location of this hotel. When I first pulled in, being dropped off by an Uber ride, I wasn't able to see all that much. It was a little late in the evening. The next morning is when I realized all the little places around the hotel that would be fun to check out. There's a really great coffee spot just down the street. It was probably no more than a two or three minute walk. There was also a local brewery next-door. Their restaurant is pretty good. There are also some other really good, let's say, "ethnic" restaurants in the area. Apparently the hotel is very close to some pretty popular ski lifts. I noticed a sign-up of ski lift shuttle request folks. That was pretty cool. It's nice that the hotel provides something like this. The hotel has a heated pool. And yes, even in the dead of winter there were people in there all throughout the day and the evening. I don't know what time they closed, but it wasn't anything super late. The only thing that kept me out of the pool was the thought of the freezing cold walk from the outdoor pool to my hotel room. I can't even imagine how cold I would've been. LOL If I visit Utah again, I really would not mind staying here. Everything about my room and the hotel itself was very comfortable and very warm and inviting. As I mentioned, the one thing that wasn't so great was the attitude of the person that I met when I checked in for my stay. And actually, I spent a good long time in the hotel lobby having to make a few important phone calls late into the night of the 30th leading into the very early morning hours (maybe 03:00 am) of the 31st. The woman who was watching the lobby area also was very puffy and puffy. She probably wasn't thrilled that I was in the lobby. She was watching some sort of show or something on her phone. She occasionally would look over and let out a big sigh. It seemed like she wanted her privacy or for at least me to not be there. I continued to make my phone calls and conduct business as I needed it. So, sorry to the person at the check-in desk I didn't mean to bother you, but I also didn't need to hear all of your heavy sighs all throughout the evening. read more

Courtyard by Marriott Salt Lake City Cottonwood - Hotels Near Me - Cottonwood Heights, Utah

First of all, the location of this courtyard. Wow! Located at the base of the mountain with amazing views of sunrises, sunsets, and so many mountains. Such a great place for snow birds and summer adventure seekers. I was here for work but I would definitely come back and stay at this courtyard. The hotel had a rooftop pool with fire pits. The views from the pool deck. Just wow! Courtyards tend to be more of a basic hotel. This one is pretty new with nature vibes. Even the employees seem super connected to the area and space in a zen way. There is a brewery next door. I didn't get to try it but love that there were multiple things to walk to from the hotel. I tried Alpha coffee which is a 0.2 mile walk. Sooo good! read more

From beginning to end it was a lovely stay. The staff is SO friendly and cheery. Everyone, including the custodian and maid, had smiles and greeted us. In particular, I want to give a shout out to Belinda, a very helpful and pleasant receptionist. However, a bigger shout out to Gabriella "Bella," who checked us in and with whom I had more rapport with during our stay. She was very pleasant and enjoyable to speak with. She gave recommendations for restaurants and was very helpful with my bill, which was being paid for by my future employer. She's a very people person, attentive to details, and anticipated my needs. Can't say enough good about her. I think she would be great as a manager. The rooms were wonderful. I'm not so sure about the open spaced deco theme, particularly the shower, which has no sliding door, it just is an open entrance. This required adjusting the shower head so that it wouldn't splash water out onto the floor. Also, to adjust the temperature of the water or to use the body wash and shampoo, you had to step to the end out of the warm water right by the opening to use them. Bad design. Should have put these so that they were accessible while staying in the water. Water pressure was typical hotel water pressure, not great and not bad. The shower head had three different adjustments. The hallways were clean with clean carpet and very nice lighting. Some places have dirty-looking, worn carpet and gives a cheap vibe. The hallways were inviting and I appreciated the very bright lighting all throughout the hallway. We had a spectacular view of the mountains (Thanks, Bella, for choosing this room for us!). My wife had to work a bit and was appreciative of the rolling, movable desk that allowed her to put it in front of the window and this view. Our 4th floor room had access to the rooftop patio which had comfy chairs and a firepit. I enjoyed chilling out one evening. It was good to have a microwave and a fridge in the room and tastefully hidden in a cabinet. The bed and pillows were comfortable, very nice. We enjoyed the 55" TV. Within a short walking distance of the hotel are several restaurants and a world class coffee shop. The Thai restaurant garnered a 5 star review from this Yelp Elite. The pastries from Alpha Coffee are from Lone Pine Bakery. Had the best croissant ever in my life! Seriously. I don't drink coffee, but the place is always packed. Around the corner is a 7-11 and within a couple of miles is a Smith's grocery store. Of course, this is right at the entrance of the Big Cottonwood Canyon and take off points for the prime Utah ski areas. I didn't use the facilities, but it has a nice exercise room and a whirlpool. We ate at the hotel's Bistro for breakfast twice and enjoyed the quality of the food. It was reasonably priced for a hotel restaurant. It has somewhat of a limited menu, but it does the trick and was very convenient. The food was all very good and high quality. I used the 24/7 Marketplace twice for snacks and a quick catchup meal of Kraft mac 'n cheese. Nice variety. There is a business center, conference rooms of medium and intimate sizes. There are three cubby hole seating areas with TVs off of the lobby. Very inviting seating around the Bistro. A very comfortable hotel all around. I highly recommend this hotel. You will have a great stay. I highly recommend this hotel. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

I stayed here July 26-28, 2023 for a business trip. My colleague recommended it and I was skeptical at first because Courtyards are known as "average" hotels. This Courtyard is located near Big Cottonwood Canyon and is definitely "above average." I'm a loyal Marriott Bonvoy member. Typically I like staying at Marriott's AC Hotels because they tend to be newer and modern in design. Courtyard's tend to be a bit older and a step down from AC's. But this newer property has AC vibes. The hotel's back drop is a view of the Wasatch mountains - absolutely stunning. Upon check-in, the front desk staff was welcoming, friendly and professional. They have a decent sized fitness center (open 24 hours - slightly bigger than most Courtyard fitness centers) adjacent to the outdoor pool. Parking is complimentary. The only food option is The Bistro Bar which offers a mix of shareable plates that are perfect for a pre or post dinner snack, as well as heartier entrees for a full meal. There's coffee and breakfast items, as well as an actual bar. If you ever visit SLC, I highly recommend booking your stay at The Courtyard Marriott in Cottonwood Heights. read more

Great location, beautiful hotel, great customer service! We stayed for one night on our road trip. The room was very comfortable and clean. No free breakfast though. So if you have a family that accommodation is not available. Great Dinner restaurant next to it "Porcupine " overall great stay. 15 minutes away from downtown Salt Lake City. read more

My family of 4 came for a ski vacation and had a fantastic time. The location 20-30min from ski resorts couldn't be beat and the hotel itself was clean, modern and the rooms were well appointed. My kids and I loved the heated pool and hot tub with beautiful snow top mountains in the back ground: The staff was also very friendly and helpful, always asking if we needed anything. We will definitely be back. read more

I come to UT on business once a month. I have 2 hotels I like to stay at and this is one. The other hotel I like to stay was sold out. I am a platinum elite member. checked out on Thursday 4/10/2025. I told the check out gal that I could only have hotel room and taxes on my bill. Nothing else. She gave me the bill so I could double check. I said I could settle up any other charges in cash or on a personal card. If you are a member you get a $10 credit per day to use in cafe or on market items. I used my last credit to get a few snacks for the plane. Total came to $10.75. I had a dollar bill in my hand to pay the extra 75 cents. She said don't worry about it so I put it away. She was very very rude and obviously didn't want to take the cash. You guessed it she added the 75 cents to my bill and now my receipt doesn't match the amount they charged to my AMEX. For business travelers, you'll know receipt and charges have to match. I've called the hotel twice today once on hold for 10 minutes and the other time told a manager would call me. 4 hours later and no one has called. This hotel is now off my list of places to stay when I'm in town. read more

Hotel is new and located close to a lot of great restaurants, bars and shopping centers. The customer service was lacking on this particular trip, and as a preferred member with this brand, I was hoping for a higher quality room. I've stayed at this location a couple of times since they opened, but not sure I'll return to this location. read more

We stayed here for 3 nights. The hotel was very nice and relatively new. Beautifully located in Cottonwood Heights, the views of the valley and city from our room were stunning! The rooms were not as clean as we'd hoped. The floors in the bathroom were dirty, and we found spots on our bedding. The front desk was quick to remedy the dirty linens, and we appreciated that. read more

I had an epic experience at a Hilton this evening (never again). I booked with Marriott on a whim at 10:00pm at night, What a breath of fresh air to stay at this Marriott on cottonwood in SLC. Classy from the moment we first arrived onsite (outside aesthetics), we were greeted by Erin at the front desk, he was more than professional in every way than I could imagine. The room was amazing, clean and very inviting. I will definitely stay here again. A 5 out of 5 for sure. Marriott for the win. read more

Excellent affordable place to stay for skiing in our trip to Solitude. Staff was friendly and Brenda at the front desk was very helpful. The place was clean and well maintained. read more

I admit, that were initially going to write a poor review. As we booked the room through Expedia, it clearly indicated free breakfast, but when we checked in, they refused to honor, saying free breakfast was only for their club members and we had to take it up with Expedia. Really???? But, the next morning, a more reasonable front desk person gave us two passes without an issue, saving the trip and the review. Overall, clean, convenient hotel. Enough amenities (parking, food, bar, exercise, and pool) for an inclusive stay. Walking distance to a Distillery (restaurant) and coffee shop. And the service (with the exception of the breakfast issue) was amazing across the hotel. Still dinged them a star for the check-in issue, but the rest of the staff saved the review. Will stay again if in the area. A few minor suggestions, as helps to have more than 1-regualr coffee and extra toilet paper in the room, and a table would have helped, but otherwise top notch. read more

Management and customer service are at an ALL TIME LOW from Marriott at this location. I have NEVER been treated so poorly by Marriott. We were booked to stay at this location September 13th-16th. We had car trouble and checked in late where we were greeted by a super loud and rude front desk man who told us they did not have a room for us and that we would have to drive 15 minutes AWAY to a RADISSON. The room at the Radisson was falling apart with a clanging air conditioner that didn't work located in a bad part of the neighborhood. The Radisson that they sent us to they NEVER PAID so I was charged TWICE for one night of hotel accommodation. I was NEVER refunded from Radisson or Marriott for the one night stay. Marriott NEVER paid the Radisson that I stayed at. I have called multiple times to talk to the manager Heather who the front desk told me would call me back. I have a incident number but no difference has been made. It's been over a month since the incident and I still haven't received a call from her. HORRIBLE SERVICE.. read more
