The culture is totally friendly and helpful and open hearted . A real treat! Snacks and drinks available, big breakfast. Staff best of any place I’ve ever been. Not fancy but has everything you need, pool, hot tub, gym, very functional and often large rooms although once I stayed in a smaller room. Right by the buses to the lifts, on the main drag with other hotels and restaurants

We ended up at The Mountain Chalet rather by chance, because it was recommended to us by the concierge of an adjacent hotel. As walk-ins and in the off-season, we were able to negotiate a special rate with the young man at the front desk for one of the two apartments available in the chalet. The apartment had a large living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a bedroom with a king-size bed. The bathroom had a cosmetic mirror and the shower provided hot water at high water pressure. The vanity was set into a counter-top of fancy black pearl granite. There were countless light fixtures and even more outlets for all the digital devices travelers nowadays carry and need to charge. Everything worked, the kettle and the huge refrigerator, even the giant television,although its remote control turned on only one program. It was cozy and warm in the apartment, although we never figured out how it was heated. It is true that The Chalet has seen better days, that the furniture and carpeting are a bit outdated, but you can get homemade cookies in the lobby and stock up on teas of all kinds or fix coffee with the Nespresso coffee maker. Everything was available, almost everything was clean and in place. There is a heated pool with a pretty pool area. The Mexican kitchen crew serves a uniquely delicious breakfast. Guests can make their own orange juice with a magic squeezer and can choose between soft croissants, delicious Danish, different kinds of bread and toast or dairy products. The dining room staff is very efficient and polite, as is the front desk. The location is perfect for accessing ski lifts, shuttle buses, or the charming downtown area. In my research, I found out that The Mountain Chalet was sold to a Texan investor in May 2022. I'm curious to see what he will do to this historic 1954 landmark and hope he will preserve the traditional Lüftl paintings on the exterior walls and the extraordinary hand-painted interior walls.…

The Mountain Chalet has been hosting friends of John Denver gathering for the past 25 years. It’s been perfect for this giant group of people and it holds special memories for many many people. We truly hope the tradition can continue. Fondly, DeeDee Brown

Total dump, rude staff that smiles with an F U behind it. Stay far away. Place is filthy. They don’t clean properly. Allergies were going nuts anytime we were in the room. Don’t be fooled by location and price. Read deeper reviews. They randomly will charge your card weeks later, have a zero cancellation policy. Don’t gloss over the bad reviews here, it’s a small quaint place and some may like that but don’t get hustled, don’t even book. Once you do it’s done. You’re effed. Zero cancellation or grace period. Craig is nasty and comes with a smug attitude you’ve all had to deal with from a slightly flamboyant dude. Owner just as bad. Lots of appliances didn’t work, stains on furniture, mold, dust, not cleaned properly after pets. List goes on. Be careful, they commit fraud as well.…

Had an early flight and the night before arrival was told there was no-one in the room and we could check in early. Upon arrival, it turns out someone had taken the room. All fine, check out at 11, so in theory the room should be available at 12. However, no-one asked the staff to prioritize and when I requested (sitting in the lobby next to my empty room (door open) was informed cleaning services "has to go in order". I've watched them clean 3 on this floor next to the lobby and not the one I'm waiting for. The Manager, a grumpy elderly man didn't apologize, rather insisted check-in be at three and "that's the way it is". Avoid.

Wow, just wow ! This hotel is magical. Me and my girl had the best stay ever at Mountain chalet. This hotel has unique feeling about it that’s hard to put in words. It’s not a new flashy hotel, it’s a heirloom full of history you will grow to like. The bar upstairs is the best place in Aspen to hang out. The free breakfast was really good with freshly squeezed orange juice. It made our stay a lot more convenient and affordable. Mountain chalet not only have the best prices in town, the people that work there make you feel like your right at home.

Stayed one night at the mountain chalet Aspen. Was debating between a 3 or a 4 star rating, wanted to give 3.5 but decided to round up. Overall this is a place with good value. At the price, you get free breakfast and free parking and a relatively good location (opposite St Regis) right in the middle of town with the free buses. The people are friendly and check in was easy. Breakfast consisted of the daily special (we had blueberry pancakes and bacon) and coffee/tea or hot chocolate. The free parking is in the basement. However the room was really small, and with our luggage there was not much space to move around. The furnishing was old and the place creaks. If you are looking for a place to stay the night or to save a bit before moving on, this is the place to be. Hotel Room: 3 Stars (Really small and old room) Room View: 2 Stars (There is no view) Service of Staff: 4 Stars (Easy check in and out) Lounges/Restaurants: 5 Stars (Loved the breakfast) Room Service: NA Location: 4 Stars (Middle of the town with good access to the buses)…

Weekend with friends who ran a marathon. Hotel feels fairly clean. Heated bathroom floor. Mostly quiet. Nice people. Aspen is a star with great scenery and John Denver park. Can’t help but report that the place needs a reno….. Lots of dogs here walking around and contributing to the background odor in the rooms. Trade off of cheap vs quality if you value location.

Check in was quick and friendly. We had requested a ground floor room because of our arthritic dog. We got a great location and the room had a small balcony that Skadi ( our dog) immediately claimed for herself! The location is beyond perfect. Afternoon cookies and a breakfast that reminded me of the ones I had at the hotels in Europe. I would highly recommend the Mountain Chalet to anyone wanting the homey, non cookie cutter travel experience

It is hard to write a review about this hotel. It is a tourist class hotel with first class amenities. We wanted air conditioning so we paid more and got a partially renovated room. New bathroom and carpet but with the same old rustic furniture. The walls are paper thin and the place badly needs a facelift. That being said it is right in the center of Aspen across the street from the St Regis. Beds are comfortable. The heated lap pool and hot tub are great. Then there is the made to order breakfast and buffet. There is also an underground parking garage. The price sells it. This truly is the only bargain in Aspen even if it’s rough around the edges. We only stayed one night and for us it was fine.
