The place to be and to be seen in Aspen
By SwissMissMG, 03/17/09
The Sky Hotel is exactly what Aspen needed - a hotel that is chic, fun and lively. One feels as if they have been transported in another time - the place reminded me out of a James Bond Movie - elegant, cool and ultra-hip. The location can't be beat - located right at the base of Aspens famous ski-area Ajax - and right in the middle of Aspens chic shopping area. This hotel is a skiers dream, since you can literally ski into this cool place and jump into the cool après-ski scene. . While in Aspen you don't need to leave this cool place since the Sky Hotel is also home to Aspen's hottest après ski lounge, the 39 Degrees bar is the best people watching scene in Aspen, period. Adjacent to the 39 degrees lounge is an ultra-cool outside lounge area with heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi and cozy lounge chairs. Every evening at 5pm guests can enjoy their daily "altitude adjustment", a wine hour, served in the lobby furnished with cool sky-scraper-high oversized white leather chairs.
The Sky Hotel offers a variety of amenities to please a wide spectrum of expectations. Every little detail is met... The rooms are cleverly decorated in a shabby chic... where one feels like their own hip decorator designed the room personally with them in mind. …From the zebra striped carpeting, wonderful comfy king size beds, to the warm color schemes of yellow, red, white, to the faux fur throws on the bed… a fully stocked mini bar, with extras like bottled oxygen to the funky bathrobes in leopard or zebra.
