If you thought Deer Valley was all about slopes and ski lounges, think again. The new Grand Hyatt Deer Valley is redefining what a base area can be—mixing five‑star amenities with a meaningful commitment to those who serve.

Salute to Service: Luxury Meets Purpose

One of the most striking aspects of the Grand Hyatt is its Salute to Service program. Out of 381 rooms, 100 are reserved at deeply discounted rates for active‑duty, reserve and National Guard members, as well as retired military, disabled veterans and Department of Defense civilians. Salute to Service guests also enjoy a private lounge staffed by concierge, giving them the VIP treatment they deserve. It’s a rare blend of luxury lodging and genuine appreciation—and it’s happening right in the heart of our new village.

Beyond a Bed

  • Epic event space. The Grand Hyatt’s conference facility spans 30,000 square feet with a 3,500‑square‑foot terrace overlooking the Jordanelle Reservoir and Uinta Mountains. If you’re thinking destination wedding or corporate retreat, this is your spot.
  • Dining & nightlife. The hotel’s Remington Hall restaurant offers elevated dining, while the speakeasy‑style Hidden Ace promises a luxe, hush‑hush après scene.
  • More luxury on the way. Under construction just up the hill: the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Deer Valley and a Canopy by Hilton, plus another to‑be‑named five‑star hotel. The arms race in hospitality is alive and well—so expect more dining, spa and nightlife options than ever before.

Why It Matters for Real Estate

Hotel and conference investment isn’t just about vacationers; it signals a shift in how people live and work in Deer Valley. Luxury lodging creates demand for fractional ownership, branded residences and high‑end condo‑hotels. Investors and second‑home buyers often look for properties that can tap into hotel amenities and rental programs, so watch this space closely.

For a taste of what branded residences look like today, explore Montage Deer Valley—still one of the benchmarks for service and luxury. Also, check out Empire Pass for ski‑in/ski‑out condos paired with club amenities. These communities give you a preview of how the Grand Hyatt’s model might influence future development.

Insider Takeaways

  • Book early. Whether you’re a service member taking advantage of the Salute to Service rates or a powder hound planning a conference‑plus‑ski trip, demand will spike as the word gets out.
  • Think ahead on rentals. If you own (or are thinking of buying) a slope‑side condo, the increased foot traffic from conference attendees and luxury hotel guests could translate into higher occupancy and rates.
  • Enjoy the vibe. Even if you’re not staying there, take advantage of the public spaces—grab a drink at Hidden Ace, stroll through the lobby art and soak up the four‑season buzz.
