Located at the base of Aspen Mountain, The Little Nell stands as the region's sole Five-Star, Five-Diamond ski-in/ski-out Aspen hotel. Each of the 92 accommodations features a gas fireplace, while most offer private balconies overlooking Aspen Mountain or the surrounding landscape. The property houses the Wine Spectator Grand Award-winning cellar containing over 20000 bottles, alongside Element 47 restaurant serving Colorado Contemporary cuisine with local wagyu beef and house-made pasta. Two additional restaurants and three bars complete the dining options, including Ajax Tavern with its signature gouda cheeseburger. The hotel's outdoor heated pool and newly renovated Dior Spa provide post-slope relaxation. The fitness center features Woodway treadmills, Peloton cycles, and Technogym equipment. A dedicated ski concierge team assists with equipment storage and mountain access. The property sits 6 miles from Aspen-Pitkin County Airport.

“The Little Nell understands Aspen, delivering ski-in/ski-out access with a level of polish that feels both effortless and deeply considered. I'm particularly drawn to the hotel's curated wine experiences, expertly guided by on-site sommeliers, and I consider the Alpine chic decor, punctuated with original contemporary art, a genuine expression of place, and that's what makes the hotel special.”
