Great place, but needs kitchen and bathroom updates. I think it’s important to have all amenities to be enjoyable on this price point!

This was perhaps one of the nicest suite of rooms we've ever stayed in. Impeccably furnished in European style, and the location was outstanding. We had some issues with our heat and it was serviced in very short order. Highly recommend!

The hotel was great. It has a really cool historic feel.
This was such a charming place to stay. The location couldn't have been any better. We were given a parking permit to park in residential areas (which are very close by). You can walk everywhere. There are roughly 8 suites all located on the top floor of the historic Aspen Block Building. The finishes & furnishings are top notch including a full kitchen. Amazing that it is also pet friendly. We couldn't have been happier with our stay. Highly recommend!

Very cute concept and clever room idea. But time for a bit of an update - fabric walls were frayed with some dirty spots. Paint touch up is also needed. Nice stand alone fireplace in the room with a Duralog provided. Parking was difficult because we were there at a busy time and parking has to be on a residual street with a parking permit.
Property is a classic! We enjoyed the historic paired with the modern style of the hotel and room. The bed and pillows were comfy and all the mirrors gave the room a nice touch. The showet area was updated which was a nice surprise and touch. The only down sife was the heater took a really long time to heat the room.

This is a boutique hotel that is very swanky and in an idyllic location in Aspen and easy walk to the slopes. The drawbacks to the property are the way the layout of the rooms we stayed in suite 8 there is two bedrooms and a bathroom that connects between them, but the toilet is not walled off so you gotta be comfortable going to the bathroom in front of your friends…. To make matters worse the rooms are not even entirely walled off Suite 7 to the right of us. You could hear the people in their bathroom and even see the light shining from their bathroom through the door crack in one of the bedrooms. Overall, this would be a great place to stay with family, but not the most ideal with friends or acquaintances.
Absolutely wonderful boutique hotel. Rooms were beautiful, bed was very comfortable, very clean, and the Owners are so hospitable. The location is within walking distance of most everything. An absolute must stay in Aspen.
Excellent stay!
For older people and people with heavy luggage, there are 10-12 stairs to get to the room level; there is no elevator. Finding parking is a bit of a challenge, but there is a pass provided.
There was no one at the hotel - you had to walk up a full flight of stairs to get up to your room- there were 3 steps to get up to the tub/shower slippery in tub and hard to get in and out - the place looks nothing like it does online - I wouldn’t stay there again even if it was free
We loved our stay at The Residence Hotel. The hotel is super convenient to Aspen Mtn for skiing. The gondola is less than a 10 min walk! The room was spacious which we appreciated with our 2 dogs. The bed was extremely comfortable and we enjoyed having a little kitchen to make coffee/tea and breakfast in the morning. We will certainly stay again when visiting Aspen.
Lavish old world surroundings with sitting area and kitchen. Good location for walking and restaurants and shopping next door. Stairs could have been a problem if we were not in good shape.

Literally one window. Looked out to a building six feet away.
Used ear plugs each night to get to sleep. Little insulation between rooms & outside wall. Shower beautiful but open & cold. Parking not reserved, find something on the street 1/4 mile away.
We stayed in #5, one of the hotel rooms. The bed was wonderful. The bathroom was amazing -- all updated, walk-in shower, dual sinks and a chandelier just for fun. It has a separate room for just the toilet and the rest of the bathroom is open to the room. A walk-in closet slash coffee area helps make the room more livable because it is otherwise pretty small. There is no refrigerator even though it does say there is a full-size fridge in every room. We brought a small cooler and it was easy to get ice from the grocery store a couple blocks away.
The decor is fun and eclectic. Parts of the room feel pieced together, as it's the oldest building in Aspen (so I read), and it has a definite mismatched character. I enjoyed how much it does NOT feel like a corporate hotel room.
The location is perfection. We were there in June so we were not skiing but it's about 2.5 blocks to the gondola, and right on the grid downtown. Plenty of restaurants and shopping right out the door.
Parking. Well, there is free parking but you have to find a spot in the adjacent residential area. We did have to decipher the parking map and drive around a bit. Then the walk is 4-6 blocks back to the room. Easy to park in front to unload but those are city pay parking spaces and you can't park overnight.
Needing to have a cooler and find ice was inconvenient and parking was an adventure, but otherwise, it is a fun and funky alternative to boring hotels.
