This is a 3.5 star rating, I can't select that option on this site.

I stayed at this historic landmark for a number of days while on business in Ogden. First let me say that you can't beat the price value versus the basic requirements of lodging need. That is a warm comfortable room at a reasonable price. Ben Lomond certainly served this purpose as the King Size Suite was large. The bed was very comfortable and the heating / cooling accommodations were effective. The bathroom was well ventilated and separated from the main living area by a door. And of course the jetted tub is equivalent to adding a second bed in the room in my book.

However, one of the major issues that I had was the outdated TV and limited and rather pathetic set of TV viewing options. By now all hotels should have flat screen TVs and be connected to something more than the local cable affiliates.

Another big issue for me was that the breakfast was rather basic and to me very limited. The hotel should disband it's breakfast service and just have patrons go to the Irish Restaurant that is within the hotel. When I went down for the first and last time, I was told that they'd just stopped their self made Waffle service so all that was left was eggs, bacon and bagels. And on this day there was no fresh fruit.

Another issue was the access door for the physically challenged and those carrying heavy bags, who preferred to take them directly from the parking garage to the their floor. This door is not key controlled but when locked has to be unlocked remotely by someone at the front desk or someone physically has to come and unlock the door. In this day and age their should be a couple of choices for hotel entry that are key controlled.

Despite these inconveniences, I did have a very productive trip and really appreciated the quietness that exists on the hotel floors.

I want to make a great compliment to the Ben Lomond Hotel in Ogden Utah. I stayed there this year from the 1.th of August till the end of October. I was very pleased about this Hotel. I had a nice clean room with a great view to the wasatach mountains. The stuff at front desk and the housekeeper has been very nice and friendly all the time I have been there. Also the Mac Cools Restaurant inside the Ben Lomond was great. Good food and also very nice stuff. I really recommend this Hotel. Also a great compliment to Anna Gavan the Hotel-Manager.
I am sure, I go back to this Hotel for a longer stay in two years. I will keep my trip in a good memory.

Our last stop in Utah was the Ben Lomond Suites. We paid $72 and they upgraded our room upon arrival. What an amazing surprise when we walked in the room. Frist was a large living room with a sofa, TV, coffee table and kitchenette. The bathroom was huge with a jetted tub. A separate spacious sleeping area with a very comfy four poster bed, TV and desk, plus 2 closets. We felt like we were home. The wow factor didn't stop there. We also enjoyed an amazing hot breakfast. Everything was fresh and very tasty. Our last night we ate at MacCools Pub - the food was excellent. The staff was very nice and so friendly. We felt so pampered staying at the Ben Lomond for three nights. Would recommend the Ben Lomond to anyone going to Ogden. Thanks for a wonderful ending to our trip to beautiful Utah.

We spent two weeks traveling all over Utah and this hotel was our last stop. We certainly saved the best for last! The room was like a mini-apartment. The hotel staff was very attentive and friendly. The location was great for enjoying the Ogden area and also for reaching downtown Salt Lake City
