Hotel Jerome

Hotel Jerome is often described as “Aspen’s crown jewel” and the title is fitting. Since 1889, the boutique hotel has presided over the heart of downtown Aspen, welcoming guests over the years like journalist Hunter S. Thompson and 10th Mountain Division soldiers. Today, it offers an enticing blend of old and new, with vintage-inspired decor that nods to its colorful past as well as modern and luxurious touches—like a ski valet and an Auberge Spa. You never know who might be sitting next to you at the hotel’s signature J-Bar, which attracts an international crowd with its après-ski cocktails and buzzy atmosphere. As for skiing, Ajax Mountain is just a few blocks away, and guests can utilize a complimentary ski shuttle to access all four mountains.
