What People Are Saying About Canyons Grand Summit Resort Hotel
Featured Review

In Short – Stately, elegant and exclusively located at the base of The Flight of the Canyons Gondola, this is prime real estate at The Canyons, a mountain resort located five miles from downtown Park City. Rooms are thoughtfully, though not exquisitely, appointed. Common areas include nooks for quiet conversation. A sprawling outdoor pool, hot tubs, health club facilities and a full conference center complete the offerings at this slope-side giant.
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- If skiing, snowshoeing, tubing and gondola rides aren't enough, head over to the Olympic Winter Sports Park and try some ski jumping or bobsledding. In the summer, there's hiking, biking, hot-air ballooning and horseback riding.
Awesome

We stayed here during July and LOVED it. The room was excellent and the service was great. We have actually decided to take another trip next month (September) and stay here.
Luxury Hotel 20 steps from the gondola

Having stayed at The Canyons Grand Summit, I can tell you it is a treat. From the well appointed kitchens to the mountain luxury decor, the Grand Summit really feels like a vacation. The Cabin restuarant has amazing food -- I recommend the filet and the chocolate fondu.
Walk just 20 paces to reach the fully-enclosed gondola that takes you up to the 3,500 skiable acres (the largest resort in Utah & 5th largest resort in the country). The Canyons is still relatively undiscovered and we found that we were often the only people on a trail!
Summer visit was great too -- The Canyons has some terriffic mountian biking. For those who consider themselves moderately to very fit, I recommend the 8,000 foot trail. Put your bike on the gondola and ride up to the start of the trail (have a gourment lunch at Red Pine first).
- Pros: Luxury, 30 minutes to airport, close to everything
- Cons: can be pricey at xmas, usually booked @ xmas
