Mountain Chalet Aspen | Best ski hotels in North America

"America’s answer to Zermatt, Aspen is the most expensive ski resort in the country – which makes this central yet affordable B&B-style hotel a real gem. Located within walking distance of the Silver Queen Gondola, it’s one of the few remaining old-time ski lodges in Aspen (dating back to 1954). Its rooms are spacious and light; many feature the original 1950s furniture, while others have lovely mountain views. The solar-heated outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room are just the ticket for easing tired ski muscles, while the games room (pool table, foosball, piano) is ideal for kids and groups. The hotel hosts regular live music acts in its cosy lounge. " - Nicola Iseard
