The rugged, sophisticated charm of the mountains is no longer just for nature lovers. Experience all that Colorado has to offer at The Limelight Hotel – part of the Lifestyle collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts – a chic retreat in the heart of Aspen that brilliantly combines the contemporary comfort of a boutique hotel with the casual, laid-back atmosphere of an old-fashioned ski lodge. Awash in neutral hues of mahogany, cream, and emerald green, with dramatic splashes of red, the Limelight lets the true beauty of nature shine through whether you want to experience a winter wonderland or spring thaw. Since opening its doors over 50 years ago, the Limelight remains committed to refining "the guest experience," offering pet friendly accommodations, complimentary transport to and from the airport (as well as around town!) , and exclusive access to the region's most sought after ski and snowboarding trails.

We loved our stay at the Limelight. We chose it because of its great location in the middle of downtown, which makes it walkable to everything. It also has a much friendlier price point than Hotel Jerome or the Little Nell. I did not know it's a sister property of the LIttle Nell until after our stay, but I know completely see it. The hotel is beautiful. Our room (and outdoor deck) were spacious and quiet and luxurious. They even provided reusable metal water bottles for our hiking adventures. Service at The Limelight is great. They picked us up and dropped us off at the airport, and they dropped us off at the trailheads of several hikes with no problem at all. That meant we never needed a car at all. Thank you to Hans for the great restaurant and hiking recommendations. We decided to do the Audi test drive experience and loved it. I wish we could have had the car for another 30 minutes so that we could have seen a bit more of the contintental divide. The breakfast is plentiful, beautiful, opens a little earlier than they even said it would, and has many healthful options. It's delicious. The self-serve espresso machine is a treat, too. Thank you to the front desk staff for helping us figure out the shuttle service to Marroon Bells. What a beautiful place -- what a shame that would have been to not be able to get shuttle tickets. We will definitely stay at The Limelight on return trips to Aspen!

Limelight Aspen is such a great place to stay for all occasions. Whether it be for business or pleasure and wonderful accommodations for families. We were so comfortable and enjoyed our stay like a second home. The location is hard to beat. Highly recommend!

Wow!! What a treat to stay at this hotel. With amazing view of the mountains from everywhere, the rooms are so spacious and comfortable. The feel of the hotel is clean, modern but cozy. Location is unbeatable as it's right in town, but it's also quiet, so you could be in the middle of nowhere. Everyone who works there is super attentive and helpful, and you can share a amazing treats on your stay: modern gym, pools and hot tubs with different temperatures, test drive for Audi, excellent breakfast, and you can even try different massage tools.
