New Sheridan Hotel
"This three-story hotel in the shadow of the San Juan Mountains "is located right in the heart of town." Opened in 1891, when Telluride was only four years old, the original hotel was a three-story wood-frame structure built with the riches from the gold and silver strikes; it was destroyed in 1894 by a fire and rebuilt a year later in brick. "It has an authentic historic quality that’s impossible to fake." Rooms are decorated in Victorian furnishings with archival photos of silver and gold miners. The menu at the Chop House lists a 30-day-dry-aged bison rib eye; linger over a casual breakfast at The Parlor. The Historic New Sheridan Bar has a carved mahogany bar, room dividers with beveled and lead glass panels, and light fixtures from the 1930s."
