Hot Springs Hotel and Brewery was a Utah Pony Express station, inn and brewery founded in 1856 by Porter Rockwell at Point of the Mountain, modern-day Bluffdale, Utah. Originally Porter purchased the property along with two partners but eventually after some conflict was able to buy out both his partners. It was a contract Pony Express station, ten miles south of Trader's Rest station.

Rockwell is known historically as the bodyguard of early Mormon leader and Utah settler Brigham Young. The brewery was Utah's first and at its peak made 500 gallons of beer a day. In October 1934, a memorial marker was placed in Bluffdale, incorporating stones from the inn's stable. It was moved at a later date to the present location (40.486°N 111.900°W / 40.486; -111.900) on Pony Express Road.
