The only ski-in, ski-out hotel on Aspen Mountain, The Little Nell has held both Five-Star and Five-Diamond status for 30 consecutive years, a record no other Colorado property can match.
That combination of slope access and sustained recognition is what defines the hotel. Guests ski directly from Aspen Mountain to the front door, a convenience that sounds simple but fundamentally changes the rhythm of a ski trip.
Inside, the rooms and suites are designed around Aspen’s relaxed alpine character, sophisticated without being stiff, with every detail calibrated to feel right at altitude rather than transplanted from a city hotel.
The dining program deserves its own mention. Element 47 and Ajax Tavern are both established Aspen institutions, and the hotel’s subterranean wine cellar holds a Wine Spectator Grand Award, one of the most respected recognitions in the world for a hotel wine program.

Accommodation
Guest Rooms
The 52 guest rooms at The Little Nell are available in town-side or mountain-side orientations, each offering a different perspective on Aspen. Rooms are well appointed with fireplaces, marble bathrooms, in-room tablets and Fili D’Oro down bedding, with the mountain-side rooms delivering direct views of the slopes from the moment you open your eyes.
Premium Guest Rooms
The premium guest rooms at The Little Nell are among the most generous standard offerings of any Aspen hotel. Averaging 660 square feet, most feature vaulted ceilings and several include private balconies with either town or mountain-side views. Available in both mountain-side and town-side orientations, they sit at the larger, more residential end of what a guest room should feel like at altitude.
Suites
The suites at The Little Nell are designed to feel more residential than a standard hotel room, with uncluttered, contemporary layouts and original works of art by Caio Fonseca, Robert Kelly and Walter Niedermayr on the walls. One and two-bedroom options are available from 800 to 1,150 square feet, with gas fireplaces, steam showers, Jacuzzi soaking tubs and Bryte Balance mattresses that allow guests to customise their sleep experience. Mountain-side suites include private balconies with direct views of Aspen Mountain.
Luxury Suites
The Little Nell’s six luxury suites are each named after figures who shaped Aspen’s history, from architect Fritz Benedict who studied under Frank Lloyd Wright, to the signature Little Nell Suite named after a silver mine from the town’s earliest days. Ranging from 1,250 to 2,500 square feet, all feature private balconies with Aspen Mountain views, custom-designed furniture and organic materials throughout. The Paepcke Suite, the largest, is widely considered the premier hotel suite in Aspen.

Wellness
The Little Nell’s wellness concept, branded “Nellness,” draws on the “Aspen Idea”: a philosophy aligning body, mind, and spirit. Altitude-recovery spa treatments, a private fitness center, smart sleep technology, and custom wellness menus sit alongside seasonal dining and mountain adventures curated by an in-house Adventure Concierge. Wine dinners and signature events add a social dimension to what is a considered, whole-self approach to a luxury mountain stay.
Dining
Dining at The Little Nell spans two restaurants and three bars, anchored by Element 47, the Michelin Guide-recommended flagship serving breakfast through dinner. Ajax Tavern brings a more relaxed energy, with a sun-drenched mountain patio ideal for après-ski. The Wine Bar, a private wine cellar, and in-room dining round out an offering overseen by world-class sommeliers and chefs.
Experience
The Little Nell sits at the foot of Aspen Mountain, giving guests immediate access to a year-round programme of curated adventures. In winter, exclusive experiences include First Tracks and Snowcat Powder Tours; summer brings fly fishing and off-road touring. A complimentary Audi electric vehicle experience adds a contemporary edge, while an ongoing events calendar covers wine dinners, outdoor films, and community gatherings throughout the year.
