Blue Boar Inn

Frommer's Review

Winner of the prestigious "Best of Utah" award in the B&B category every year it's been given, the Blue Boar Inn is tucked into an upscale new neighborhood in historic Midway under the beautiful mountain vista of Wasatch Mountain State Park. Built in 1997 when the surroundings were considerably more rural, this is a special property, with a dozen attractive and plush guest rooms named for poets and authors. All of the rooms have their own unique charms, like the elephant-embroidered pillows in the Rudyard Kipling room or the leather sleigh bed in the Charles Dickens to the rugged motif in the Robert Frost; the William Shakespeare room is very European with a hand-carved Rococo king bed from Italy. All rooms have fireplaces and jetted tubs. Named for a watering hole in Robin Hood lore, the Blue Boar Inn is also home to one of the region's best restaurants, with a contemporary continental menu heavy on fresh seafood and a superlative 3,000-bottle wine cellar. Main courses are typically $26 to $36. Through the entire property, every detail, from the fascinating antiques (including 600-year-old crossbows) to the impeccable landscaping to the scooters available for rent ($35 an hour), hits the mark.
