The Best Hotels in Aspen, Colorado
Skiing in Colorado is among the best in the world – thanks to the epic snowy slopes of the Rocky Mountains. Aspen is one of the most popular of the state’s many ski towns, with four separate ski areas known as the Aspen Snowmass, and over 70 routes down Aspen Mountain (often called Ajax). After a day on the slopes, travelers need somewhere to kick back and relax – here are the best places to stay for your Aspen adventure.
