  • Overall it's a prime location if you want to ski Breck and be close to nightlife on Main St. 4
  • Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City (5/5) Brand new or close to new Regency right downtown. Globalist status recognized at check-in, and the club level was an added benefit. Rooms were great. 4

  • Everything was clean and it was very quiet at that time of year. 2
  • Hyatt Regency Crystal City (1/5) Had been our corporate "go-to" hotel for all work travel to Washington DC. However quality is several lacking/needs a complete renovation... bathrooms are dated, walls are paper-thin and HVAC is questionable at best (no A/C in the summer is unacceptable). 4

  • Loved the affordability and having a full 2 bedroom condo with master suite, living room and full kitchen was very unique for vacationing. 2
  • The bedroom had a fireplace that made the whole space feel cozy and peaceful, and the bed was so comfortable. 2

Room5 mentions
  • Pleasantly surprised overall; while slightly dated it was quiet, comfortable bed, and everything in the room was in working order. 4
  • We booked a 1 bedroom suite that had a sofa, table & chairs for 4, a very nice bathroom, and a large king bedroom with a terrace that also had a table and chairs. 2
  • Loved the affordability and having a full 2 bedroom condo with master suite, living room and full kitchen was very unique for vacationing. 2

View1 mention
  • The view from the balcony overlooking the mountains and falling snow felt unreal. 2
