New Amex Centurion Lounge at SLC
Today, American Express unveiled the Centurion® Lounge at Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), the 31st Centurion Lounge and the airport’s first-ever proprietary lounge by a credit card issuer.
The nearly 18,000-square-foot space, designed with an influence by local Utah artists, features a year-round outdoor terrace with views of the Wasatch Mountains, a ski-lodge inspired Hearth Room, a Blue Roast by American Express coffee bar, two bars and a buffet. The food and beverage menus are curated by The Culinary Collective by The Centurion Lounge.

Lounge Design and Features
The design of the lounge takes inspiration from the region’s natural landscape and outdoor spirit. Warm, earthy tones and open spaces reflect the city’s surrounding mountains and open skies. At the entrance, guests are welcomed by a ceiling installation, drawing on the textures of Utah’s salt flats with layered, hand-poured glass flakes that shimmer in the light.
Inside, the lounge celebrates the area’s vibrant arts community with works from local artists including a mixed-media collage interpretation of the American Express bulldog mascot reflecting Utah’s landscape by Erin Blundell, a large-format woven tapestry inspired by Salt Lake City’s mountains and salt flats by Rebecca Whitaker, and more. Near the coffee bar area, a custom ceiling installation by renowned lighting designer Lindsey Adelman takes its cues from constellations in the dark skies for which Salt Lake City is so well-known.
The lounge features include:
- Hearth Room Inspired by a Luxury Lodge Experience: A striking 360-degree fireplace encircled by plush lounge seating and a custom, locally woven art piece echoing the surrounding natural landscape creates the feeling of a premium hearth room.
