About this Location

Facility Overview

The Hilton Garage is a prime multi-level covered parking structure located on-site at the Hilton Salt Lake City Center at 255 S West Temple Street. Situated squarely in the heart of Downtown Salt Lake City, this secure parking deck provides sheltered parking options for hotel patrons, business professionals, event attendees, and city visitors. The facility features standard height clearances typical of downtown hotel garages (approximately 6 feet 8 inches), making it perfectly suited for passenger sedans, compact crossovers, and standard SUVs. Drivers operating lifted trucks, commercial vehicles, or high-roof camper vans should seek surface parking alternatives nearby due to the overhead clearance barriers.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During major conventions or Utah Jazz home games, traffic along West Temple can slow significantly; planning to arrive 30 to 45 minutes before curtain or tip-off ensures hassle-free entry. Keep your parking ticket in a safe place or take advantage of mobile pay solutions where posted. If attending high-attendance downtown events, exiting toward 300 South or 400 South typically offers quicker routes to regional freeways than heading north toward Temple Square.
