Peery Hotel, hotel building in Salt Lake City, Utah
The Peery Hotel is a three-story historic hotel building in Salt Lake City built in 1910, blending Classical Revival and Prairie School architectural styles. The structure displays classical windows and entrances with horizontal lines and solid brick walls that reflect early 20th-century craftsmanship.
The hotel was built in 1910 by the Peery family, who continued the project after David Harold Peery's death in 1907 and brought it to completion. The building grew alongside Salt Lake City during a period of rapid change and was later renamed the Miles Hotel in 1947 before being added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
The hotel carries the name of the Peery family, who played a significant role in the city's early development. Visitors today notice the classical design details and furnishings that reflect the era when the building opened.
The hotel offers various room types including double queen rooms and suites with separate living and sleeping areas. Amenities are basic, with a small fitness center, lounge areas, and a snack shop in the basement, while parking is located in a separate paid garage nearby.
Guests have reported that the building may have unexplained activity, with accounts of flickering lights, footsteps with no visible person, and strange figures in doorways. Such stories add an element of mystery to the experience of staying in this over one-hundred-year-old building.
