The Best Inns and Bed & Breakfasts
Inn on the Hill Bed & Breakfast (Salt Lake City; tel. 801/328-1466; www.innonthehillslc.com): Two blocks from both the Utah State Capitol and Temple Square, this stately mansion atop Capitol Hill is one of Salt Lake City's greatest B&Bs, thanks in no small part to its tremendous city and mountain views. Look for original details -- such as wavy and stained-glass windows and steam heat.
Snowberry Inn Bed & Breakfast (near Ogden; tel. 888/334-3466; www.snowberryinn.com): This log B&B is lovingly decorated with antiques and collectibles, and each bedroom has its own personality. Although the house has a wide-open design with a broad front porch, it still manages to have a cozy, homelike atmosphere; guests gather in the kitchen to sip coffee and watch, or help, as breakfast is being prepared.
Hines Mansion Luxury Bed & Breakfast (Provo; tel. 800/428-5636; www.hinesmansion.com): A Victorian mansion ripe with historic ambience, this is a wonderful place to celebrate a wedding anniversary or romantic occasion, with complimentary sparkling cider and two-person whirlpool tubs in every room.
Blue Boar Inn (Midway; tel. 888/654-1400; www.theblueboarinn.com): Named for a watering hole in Robin Hood lore, the Blue Boar Inn is tucked into an upscale new neighborhood in historic Midway under the beautiful mountain vista of Wasatch Mountain State Park. This is a special property, with a dozen attractive and plush guest rooms named for poets and authors.
Seven Wives Inn Bed & Breakfast (St. George; tel. 800/600-3737; www.sevenwivesinn.com): This was the first B&B in Utah, and it's one of the loveliest. There are no polygamists hiding in the attic anymore, but you'll feel like you've stepped back in time. The two historic 19th-century homes are outfitted with antiques, mostly Victorian and Eastlake. You'll love the several decks, porches, and balconies.
Stone Canyon Inn (near Bryce Canyon National Park; tel. 866/489-4680; www.stonecanyoninn.com): Quiet seclusion, loads of charm, and absolutely splendid views are only three of the reasons why this inn is so highly recommended -- it is also very upscale and the place to come to be pampered. Each of the six guest rooms is unique, with queen or king-size beds, handsome wood furnishings, and a classic Western look; and the luxurious cottages each have two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a gas fireplace, full kitchen, and a private deck with a hot tub.
Sunflower Hill Luxury Inn (Moab; tel. 800/662-2786; www.sunflowerhill.com): Loaded with country charm, this delightful B&B makes you feel like you're at Grandma's, where family relics surround you and handmade quilts keep you warm at night. What's more, this may be the quietest lodging in Moab, and the grassy, shady grounds are especially inviting on a hot day.
