About this property

Spacious 10 ft ceilings, a completely remodeled bathroom, a super comfortable queen bed, and a dedicated workspace with desk and chair, along with many of the original historic moldings make this suite a treat to visit. All the amenities you could need to make your stay comfortable as well as several outdoor and indoor gathering spaces. Come stay with us today!
Art City Inn was originally built in 1892 by Moses and Anna Kearns Johnson. Moses was a prominent actor and son of the founder of Springville, Aaron Johnson. At the time, the inn was known as the Johnson Hotel and was one of three hotels in Springville, Utah. Two significant railroads connected the town to the rest of the US which created a need for accommodations for visitors, along with Springville's success in agricultural processing.

William Henry Kearns and Loretta Chase Kearns bought it in the early 1900s, and added onto it sometime between 1908 and 1925 with the two-story rear wing. Loretta and her son Howard were artists and while living at the hotel, they painted multiple pieces of art, now under the care of the Springville Museum of Art.

Throughout the following decades, it would be run as an inn under the names of Kearns House, Manitou Hotel, Valley Tavern Hotel, amongst others. In the early 2000s, most of the major systems were updated and it was then run as a Victorian-style bed and breakfast for several years. Finally in 2021, extensive renovations were started and then finished in 2022 to turn it into what you see today. Welcome to Art City!

Adorable little hotel with everything you need
My boyfriend and I, plus my mini doxie stayed in Suite 8 and it was just perfect. I wish we could have stayed longer. The check in process was a breeze, we got to town at 9 PM and were able to navigate everything without issue. The lobby and grounds were so pretty and super clean, so was the room. My only comment would be for light sleepers, you'll want ear plugs. It isnt noisy exactly, but you can hear your neighbors more than in a newly constructed hotel. Didn't bother us one bit, we both love the charm of an older space, but it could be a challenge for some. It's super walkable too, easy access to shops, a laundromat, and restaurants. Worth taking a stroll through the surrounding neighborhoods too, so cute!

Perfect stay for one person
This property had exactly what I needed for my overnight stay in the area. There was a bed, bathroom, desk, refrigerator, microwave, and cute coffee bar. I did not intend to spend a lot of time at the property, so this was a great place to lay my head and get ready for the next day. The building is a beautiful old building in a quaint part of town. I did have to contact the property owner, and he was very responsive and fixed what I needed immediately.

Suite 8 or Sweet 8
Very cute and modern aesthetic, clean room with treats and games to play, close to the fun shops and restaurants on Main Street, easy to get a hold of, I was super happy with it. Also the interior looks like it was lifted right out of a Wes Anderson film, if that’s your vibe. So fun

Cute and Clean
I really loved my stay at this very cute historic inn in the downtown Springville neighborhood. I was visiting BYU’s library for the week and it was a very short daily commute. The inn was very clean and had the amenities that made for a longer stay— a nice mini fridge, microwave, and Keurig. There were a few things that happened outside of the control of the owners but they were easy to reach and talk with about those unpredictable hiccups. Highly recommend!

The fact that we had our own entrance instead of having to go in through the lobby was great especially because of my dogs. Very convenient! Everything was amazing and I highly recommend Art City Inn. I am definitely staying here for future trips! Thank you Amy and Eric for the amazing service.

Beautifully restored inn with so much charm
I was drawn to this inn due to the pictures. I love good decor, a vintage feel, and a clean place. It was all three. I had a small room, but access to the lobby as well, which is a cute space with more room to spread out. Suite 8 is very close to the road, but it's not a super busy road, so the noise was minimal. I would totally stay here again.
