The Lounge has happy hour served with a seasonal inspired menu and there's an an outdoor pool Great choice for family adventures.”

Hotel review

Right in the heart of Aspen, the Limelight Hotel is a cultural hub — The Lounge is known for its wood-fired pizzas, daily après-ski specials, and live music programme. The hotel's strategic location offers easy access to Aspen Mountain's ski runs, celebrated restaurants and nightlife, so skiers start the day with a communal-style continental breakfast in the Lounge, and meet up here again when the lifts close. A full dinner menu focuses on American bistro fare with an Italian twist.

Superior Rooms all the way up to Luxury Suites enjoy a modern aesthetic, all freshly renovated and all with an alarm clock to help get you onto the slopes early doors! The Aspen and Cathedral Suites have more generous living spaces with modern kitchens, while the Casita Suite, adjacent to the outdoor pool terrace, provides easy access to the hot tubs. The Penthouse Suite is sprawling with a grand outdoor balcony for panoramic views of downtown Aspen and those majestic mountains beyond.

Limelight Hotel

This friendly, unassuming hotel is a breath of fresh air in Colorado’s most expensive mountain town.
