The Little Nell

Aspen, United States

97 Excellent 216 Reviews
Note that the property across the street, formerly The Sky Hotel, is being razed and rebuilt to further enhance guest accommodations in Aspen. As is expected with any construction process, sound and dust will be present. Additionally, there is a 16-foot construction fence around the construction zone. The Little Nell is taking every step possible to mitigate these factors so as to ensure every guest experience is exceptional.
