7. The Innsbruck
It wouldn’t be Top Ten Aspen hotels without a bunch of charming mountain chalet-style resorts on the list! The Innsbruck delivers on just that—modeled after a European chalet, this gorgeous hotel will make you feel like you never have to leave the mountain, even to sleep (well, you could sleep on the slopes, but that’s a little too dedicated). Stay at the Innsbruck and experience ultimate mountain relaxation, and believe us, that’s snow joke. Check-in 4 PM, check-out 10 AM.
6. Aspen Meadows
Doesn’t that name just make you want to relax? At Aspen Meadows Resort, the primary goal is tranquility—a goal reached on the daily in the mountains. Located at the foot of Red Mountain, this awesome Bauhaus-style Top 10 Aspen hotel features breath-taking floor-to-ceiling windows with views that will make you pee your pants (hopefully not literally). But if you are so excited you can’t hold it in, head to Ute Mountaineer (one of our Top 10 Aspen shops) for some new gear. Check-in 4 PM, check-out 11 AM.
5. The Gant
We are betting you’ve never been to a rustic-chic condo resort in the heart of the mountains, so we had to include The Gant on our Top Ten Aspen hotels! This crazy place has two pools, three hot tubs, a tennis court, and a fitness center (we think they are telling you to work out while on vacation…but you don’t have to listen). Experience the gorgeous mountains in a trendy, upscale spot—you won’t regret it. Check-in 4 PM, check-out 10 AM.
4. Hotel Aspen
While it might not be the most creative name for a hotel, the the hotel's refined design and attention make it an aesthetic masterpiece. The lodging is unique, stylish, and surrounded by mountain bliss—the ultimate dream. Located in downtown Aspen, you’re in walking distance to all the amazing shops and restaurants, but more importantly, walking distance to the bottom of the slopes. Snow is more important than food, right? Check-in 4 PM, check-out 10 AM.
3. Mountain Chalet
A place where the beer flows like wine, where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano: we’re talking about a little place called Aspen (For you Dumb and Dumber fans). If Lloyd could pick, he would probably choose the Mountain Chalet Aspen to continue his shenanigans. In operation since 1954, this classic Top 10 Aspen chalet has got the process of pampering customers down pat. A minimum of two night’s stay is required (because you can’t only stay in the mountains for one sleep)! Check-in 3 PM, check-out 11 AM.
2. Limelight Hotel
Earning the hipster choice for our Top Ten Aspen hotel is The Limelight Hotel—a super trendy, eco-friendly gem located in the heart of the snowy city.

This hotel is in the limelight for a reason: it’s a stellar place to get some shut eye. Check-in 4 PM, check-out 12 PM.
