The Little Nell

Aspen One / Relais & Châteaux · Ski-in/ski-out grand hotel · 675 East Durant Avenue, base of Aspen Mountain

Aspen's benchmark address and its only true ski-in/ski-out luxury hotel, sitting directly at the base of the gondola. A Forbes Five-Star property for 30 consecutive years and a recent Relais & Châteaux inductee, it pairs polished service with a serious wine program and the New American kitchen at Element 47.

Why we recommend it

The single best combination of mountain access, service and dining in town, and the natural first choice for guests who want to step from suite to slope. Note the planned closure for refurbishment from spring 2027.
