Stonebridge has been selected to manage the Kimpton hotel currently under development in downtown Salt Lake City. The luxury lifestyle property, developed by The Domain Companies, is expected to open in early 2028.
Upon completion, the 216-room hotel will feature two distinctive food and beverage options, including both upscale and casual dining and a rooftop bar.
The 10-story mid-rise hotel will feature a fitness center, 7,000 sq. ft. of flexible meeting space, including a ballroom, boardroom and pre-function areas, valet parking, and indoor and outdoor terraces for year-round social and corporate gatherings.
“This project represents the type of differentiated, high-quality asset where Stonebridge can create meaningful value through disciplined execution and a strong commercial strategy,” said Rob Smith, CEO, Stonebridge. “A Kimpton in this location, with this level of design, food and beverage activation, and brand backing, is well positioned to outperform its competitive set. Our focus will be on building a ramp-up strategy that maximizes rate, drives premium demand segmentation, and delivers long-term returns for ownership.”
Kevin Dingle, chief development officer, Stonebridge, added, “The Domain team has taken a disciplined approach in bringing Stonebridge into the project early, which allows us to align around operating strategy, design, and commercial positioning from the outset. We couldn’t be more excited about this opportunity, and we look forward to growing our relationship with Domain.”
The Kimpton Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City will be located less than a 10-minute walk to the convention center, Delta Center and Pioneer Park, and City Creek. Salt Lake City International Airport is approximately 15 minutes away, and Smith Entertainment Group is developing a new sports and entertainment district anchored by a renovated Delta Center, which is home to the Utah Jazz and the NHL’s Utah Mammoth.
“We are grateful to be partnering with Stonebridge, which brings deep expertise in operating luxury and lifestyle hotels with expansive food and beverage programs,” said Matt Schwartz, co-CEO, The Domain Companies. “This project will provide downtown Salt Lake City with a world-class hotel experience that will set a new standard for hospitality in the market.”
