About us

Many convention hotels have the flexible space to host your event. Several have in-house services to bring your program to life. Some are even outfitted with ornate details and decor. The Grand America Hotel exemplifies all these traits, with 100,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space, teams of in-house event specialists, including audio-visual technicians and gourmet catering, and intricately designed spaces, complete with hand-selected marble floors and Murano glass-blown chandeliers. But, unlike most convention hotels, The Grand America stands alone in its commitment to exceptional service. With dedicated, longstanding staff members, events at The Grand America are treated with great care. Family-owned and operated, our well-tenured teams of experts warmly welcome groups to Salt Lake City year after year with inherited knowledge, thoughtfully anticipating every need. You may not remember every Grand detail, but you will remember how every small moment made you feel.
