In a destination known for world-class skiing and an unrivalled mountain town atmosphere, The Little Nell remains Aspen’s most iconic place to stay. As the only true ski-in, ski-out hotel at the base of Aspen Mountain, it offers effortless access to the slopes combined with the refined service and understated luxury that has defined the property for decades.
For Mogul Ski World clients, The Little Nell consistently delivers the complete Aspen experience: exceptional skiing on your doorstep, a vibrant village scene just outside the door, and a hotel team that understands exactly what a perfect day on snow should look like.
Step out the door and onto Aspen Mountain’s Silver Queen Gondola. At the end of the day, ski directly back to the hotel, where boot warmers, ski concierge service and a perfectly timed après await.
The Little Nell’s legendary ski concierge program makes every ski day effortless. Skis are warmed and ready each morning, and the team handles everything from equipment tuning to arranging guides and lessons.
Right in the heart of downtown Aspen, The Little Nell places you steps from the town’s exceptional dining, shopping and nightlife, while maintaining a quiet sense of exclusivity once you step inside.
For decades, The Little Nell has been the hotel of choice for seasoned skiers, celebrities and Aspen regulars, yet it retains a relaxed mountain elegance that feels welcoming rather than showy.
