Combine the ambiance of a quaint New England bed and breakfast with classic, old school glamour and you’ll find the Washington School House Hotel. This downtown hotel was built as a school house in 1889, but has upgraded and modernized itself into a hotel showcasing itself as the pinnacle of luxury in the small hotels category.
All of the twelve grand rooms and suites feature high ceilings and a distinctly modern feel and design, which is remarkable considering that each is decorated with antique furnishings, some dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. Every room and suite has its own unique history behind it, which is just one reason why Gayot.com ranked it the number one boutique hotel in the world.
Despite its small size, the Washington School House Hotel doesn’t skimp on amenities. Swim in their heated pool and spa tucked into the hillside of the Park City wilderness. You’ll still be close to the shops, restaurants, and excitement of downtown Park City and Main Street, but surrounded by nature, you won’t hear one peep of the bustle! Dine on delicious plates handcrafted by the hotel’s own executive chef, and have a great drink in the chic ski lounge.
If you’re looking for a luxury boutique honeymoon experience in a -peaceful yet centrally located hotel, in a breathtaking location surrounded by verdant hills and evergreens, you have found your match at the Washington School House Hotel.

This is a place where they’ve got you covered. The things you think about plus the things you don’t. The staff is incredibly responsive, always available (even by texting from your pool lounger or away from the hotel). The hotel is impeccably maintained — and I mean perfect everywhere. The food is very thoughtfully created. And then the all-important bed and bath — I slept like a baby and didn’t want my shower to end.
The location of the hotel is unbeatable. It’s one block off of Main Street, but just a 2 minute walk from the front door. So things stay quiet and low key. And, still, there’s no need to summon your car (although they are really quick at doing that whenever you need).
It would have been tempting to stay at one of the larger hotels — with their spas and bars and such. And, in fact, I considered it. But I think those miss out on the charm that is Park City. I could tell when we went for lunch at the St. Regis; those folks didn’t seem nearly as pleased with their experience as I was. So do yourself a favor: stay in town, and stay here.

We recently stayed there with a group of friends and we pretty much took over this small hotel which made it a ton of fun as we could gather together without disrupting other guests. The staff is wonderful and they go out of their way to make your stay memorable. The breakfasts are superb! Our room was pretty small as was the bathroom but we spent most of our time with friends in the common areas which are beautiful. All of our beverages and food was included which was a very nice surprise. If you are going to Park City with a bunch of friends, say for a wedding, book the whole place well in advance and you will not regret it.

If you are looking for a hotel in Park City, this is your place! My husband and I recently stayed at WSH for 5 nights. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff was incredible in taking care of all our needs. Our car was taken away to the complimentary valet, our luggage was brought to our room, and we explored the lovely property. The decor is stunning, the spaces are cozy and inviting—perfect for sitting with a glass of wine or reading a book. All drinks during our stay were included, so we never had to pay for wine or cocktails. The staff is always eager to bring you anything you’d like to drink while relaxing on a patio or sitting by the pool. This hotel is small and intimate, with only 12 rooms. Because of this, the staff really attends to all of your needs and they also get to know you personally. They take interest in you and offer suggestions on dining, hikes, and activities. Breakfast is included, cooked to order, and delicious. WSH hotel is very close to Main Street and within short walking distance to many great shops and restaurants, yet it is a very quiet and peaceful property. My husband and I have stayed at many boutique hotels, but have never experienced anything as wonderful as this. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!

I couldn’t have asked for a better place to begin our vacation. It was a very memorable 50th bday for my husband and we’ll definitely be back the next time we are in Park City!

Washington School House was even more wonderful than anything we could have imagined. With just 12 rooms, the staff truly makes it a priority to get to know their guests. Everyone is so accommodating and friendly. The grounds are beautiful, the pool is beautiful and you cannot beat the location. The food was absolutely to die for. I had the best breakfast of my life all 4 mornings. The chef truly creates some amazing dishes and you can tell he puts his heart into everything he prepares. Matt, the gm, was so so great and personable. Everyone we interacted with at the hotel kept making our stay better and better. Truly a home away from home. The beds are heavenly. The beverages are delicious. An incredible experience, will definitely be back.
