HOTEL JEROME

Built in the 1880s, this gorgeous brick hotel is an Aspen landmark. With stellar views of snowy peaks, a sort of rustic luxe vibe, and an attentive staff, Hotel Jerome embodies all that is Aspen. Don’t miss the cheeseburger at the J-Bar—a hangout of local chefs and visiting celebrities alike—which also boasts the dubious honor of once being the de facto office of Hunter S. Thompson.
