Treasure Mountain Inn

Treasure Mountain Inn has been family-owned in Park City for fifty years and sits at the top of Main Street, where the historic mining-town buildings transition into the climb up to Park City Mountain Resort. Seventy rooms across two interconnected buildings, an outdoor pool and hot tub, and an unusually progressive operation — the inn is independently certified as climate-positive and has been a sustainability outlier in the Park City market for years.

It's the value play in town: walking distance to dinner, a short shuttle or walk to the lifts, breakfast included, and a price point that sits well below the Stein Eriksen-and-Montage tier.

The setting

At the top of Main Street in old-town Park City, Utah, where the historic district meets the slope up to Park City Mountain Resort. The walk to most of Park City's restaurants — Riverhorse on Main, High West Distillery, Wasatch Brew Pub — is short. The free in-town shuttle and the Park City lift base are within a few minutes; in summer, the trailheads at Round Valley and the Summit Trail run from town.

The drive in from Salt Lake City International Airport is forty minutes east on I-80. Deer Valley is fifteen minutes south by car or shuttle; Canyons Village (the Park City Mountain Resort's western base) is fifteen minutes north.

The building

Two interconnected buildings at the top of Main Street, with a courtyard and pool between them. The aesthetic is restrained refined-Americana — pine-and-stone exteriors, white trim, peaked roofs that defer to the historic-district code. Public spaces include the lobby restaurant area, the outdoor pool deck, and a small fitness room.

The renovation work over the years has been gradual. The inn looks lived-in rather than recently flipped, and the operation feels personal.

The rooms

Seventy rooms across the two buildings in standard, deluxe, and one- or two-bedroom condo-style categories. Rates from around $345 in shoulder, climbing in winter peak. Beds are queens and kings, linens are good, bathrooms are functional and updated. Several units have full kitchens — useful for multi-night stays — and some have gas fireplaces. Mountain-side rooms get the slope view; rear rooms are quieter.

Food & drink

There's no full restaurant. Continental breakfast is included in the lobby. The walk into Main Street's restaurants is short — Riverhorse on Main, High West Distillery's saloon, Vessel Kitchen, Wasatch Brew Pub. Apres-ski at No Name Saloon is the standard.
