Top Independence Pass Hotel Reviews

Limelight Hotel Aspen

10/10 Excellent

"HOTEL WAS GREAT BUT HOTELS.COM WHOM I BOOKED WITH DID NOT PAY MY RAKUTEN CASH I WAS PROMISED"

The Inn at Aspen

10/10 Excellent

"Was great, just would like for breakfast on site."

Exquisite pet friendly home, 5 blks from Gondola with stunning views!!

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful stay at Mason Manor! We loved how welcoming Peggy and Bentley were, they are both wonderfully hospitable hosts!The place is immaculately clean, spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything needed for a luxuriously comfortable stay!The massive clean windows offer picturesque views of the surrounding beautiful scenery and grounds. Looking out the windows was akin to viewing living fine art, it was gorgeous!The location was ideal, just outside downtown Aspen so that you are surrounded by beautiful Aspens and evergreens instead of buildings, with sunset views! Just minutes away from the heart of Aspen. We will be returning to Mason Manor!"

Independence Square Lodge by Frias

8/10 Good

"Location is great, walk distance from the gondola, restaurants and shopping area. The hotel room was well maintained. Breakfast was bad(Motel 6 quality) for the price it was a shame, and no parking! Finding parking in Aspen downtown is painful. We were fined $100 for parking at Aspen St “near” a do-not-park sign, our car barely touched the no-parking zone."

Top-Floor Aspen Condo One Block from Gondola with A/C, Fireplace & Mountain Views

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was great, and everything was easy from check-in to check-out. We already have another stay booked!"

The Gant

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 2 nts in a lovely 2 bd 2b condo. We were upgraded. Everything was great but it is expensive especially with taxes and insurance added on. Not sure we’ll stay there again."

Hotel Jerome, Auberge Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was off the charts friendly and accommodating, always wanting to know how your day was and serving with joy. My wife Cathy had the best meal she had EVER had, Lamb and the octopus. It made me feel really good I chose “The Jerome” to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary and make her feel special. Thank you Bob"

The Twin Lakes Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Shout out to Andy and all of his staff! The breakfast was phenomenal! Like it was made by a professional chef. Staying at the INN was like walking back in time. Everything is original from around 150 years ago. The room we stayed in was gorgeous! And the mattress was so comfortable! The little town is full of history. Absolutely perfect place to stay if you’re a hiker, 4 x 4 adventurer or 2 old ladies. I would say it’s the favorite place that we’ve ever stayed in all of our very long lives. Thank you for hosting us!"

West End Aspen Retreat for 3 Walkable to Gondola with Fireplace, Patio & Mountain Charm

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfy, cute condo for our stay! Perfect location to walk into town. Adequately furnished for all our needs. Will definitely stay again."
