A clean, no-frills hotel near the highway with free breakfast and easy access to both ski resorts. One of the most dependable value options in the area.
Why We Chose It
Park City accommodation pricing is brutally aggressive in ski season, and the Holiday Inn Express at Kimball Junction is the top budget option — a standard branded highway hotel with the key advantages of free ski shuttles to both major resorts, a free hot breakfast, an indoor pool, and rates that are 40–60% below anything in Old Town or at the resort bases. Kimball Junction is the gateway to Park City, 5 miles from Old Town — not walkable, but the free shuttle network connects it. For budget-focused skiers who are happy to spend their days on the mountain and evenings in the hotel rather than prowling Main Street bars, this is a legitimate and notably practical choice.
What Stands Out
- Free ski shuttle to both Park City Mountain and Deer Valley
- Free hot breakfast included daily
- 40–60% cheaper than Old Town equivalents
- Indoor pool and hot tub
- Free city bus connection to Old Town from Kimball Junction transit hub
