We were making a quick trip to Aspen to check out Independence Pass, Aspen and Maroon Bells. I scoured the various websites for a one-night reasonable stay in Aspen. We landed on the Hotel Durant and were pleasantly surprised. This hotel is in a great walkable location, has a lovely main lobby and friendly front desk clerks. The room is very small but comfortable. The bathroom was THE smallest bath we have every encountered. Literally get in, close door, turn around, sit down...it is crazy small. The beds were comfy and the linens crisp and clean. Caution that there is NO elevator, and our room was on the 3rd floor. The continental breakfast was convenient and had all the necessities like bagels, pastries, yogurt, cereal, fruit, juices and coffee/tea. We grabbed a few pieces of fruit for the trip to Maroon Bells. Aspen is incredibly expensive so this hotel was a welcome find. We would return.

Worst experience. We booked a queen room which the hotel advertised as a beautiful room with windows overlooking trees. When we went to check in, it was a basement dungeon with no proper windows. A small opening for a little light to come in, but otherwise a complete shoebox. Be...

Worst experience. We booked a queen room which the hotel advertised as a beautiful room with windows overlooking trees. When we went to check in, it was a basement dungeon with no proper windows. A small opening for a little light to come in, but otherwise a complete shoebox. Be very careful with the false advertising and horrible management

Do NOT Recommend! Had third floor walk up. There is no elevator up. Bed was so close to each wall we had to crawl to bottom of bed to get out. Bathroom was TINY. Parking is very tough. Pros- walkable to downtown Clean Breakfast is very basic _____ Informed management...

We just checked out of this boutique hotel today. Very happy with our stay. Quiet, clean, great beds, air conditioning, free continental breakfast, free parking, walking distance to downtown Aspen.

We just checked out of this boutique hotel today. Very happy with our stay. Quiet, clean, great beds, air conditioning, free continental breakfast, free parking, walking distance to downtown Aspen. Room is tight, my husband and I hit our knee about four times on bed frame, but sink/mirror area is very roomy. Love how modern and up to date this hotel is. Would definitely stay again.

This is one of those reviews when you rate it a “3” and at the same time know you’d stay again. Durant has its charm. It’s a smaller property on a quieter street that has all the location benefits of the larger, more expensive competitors. The room was rather pokey. The floor size was generous, but the floor plan allocation between entry/bathroom/bedroom made it feel like we were tripping over each other, and furniture, during the stay. That “closeness” wasn’t helped by a single solitary window trying to do justice to what could have been a lovely Mountain View. The bed was comfy but let down by the very bad pillows. The bathroom was spacious and the shower pressure just right. Walls are paper thin. Light conversation in the room next door was audible...luckily our neighbors were quiet. Great internet. Reception was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was just what we needed to get out and up the slopes, just a 5-10 min stroll from door to gondola. It won’t set the world on fire, but probably serves as a reliable option for repeat visitors to the very charming Aspen.

We booked the balcony room. It is really cozy with a queen bed, but warm and clean, with a mini fridge (no coffee maker and no microwave). Breakfast is included, and it includes coffee, milk, pastries, fruits, ... Staff are super friendly and helpful. It’s close to Gondola, downtown, Carl’s pharmacy, and the bus stop. We barely stayed in our hotel since our plan was going out skiing.

Here’s what you DON’T get with the rooms: Luggage rack, bathtub, bellhop service or a chair to sit on. What you do get: a bed, a robe and a clean bathroom. The rooms are VERY small and they do come with a light breakfast included.

It was our first time at Aspen and having read the good reviews, I booked the hotel for 3 nights. The room was clean and the surroundings were quiet. You could also walk to the downtown area pretty easily. The room and the bathroom were very, very small and the pillows were too soft. In the summer, it was hard to control the temperature The room was so small that if you turned on the aircon unit, it was too cold and if you did not, it was too stuffy. Also the comforter in the room was way too heavy for the summer.The blackout shades did not fully cover the window, so the brightness from the wall of the building next door was right in your face in the morning. The continental breakfast was fair. I would recommend checking the price of condominiums in the area, which I believe are larger, more comfortable and probably do not cost that much more in the summer.

We stayed here to go skiing at Aspen Mountain. You can not beat the location as it is only about a 7-minute walk to the Gondola. It's also very convenient to shops and restaurants. The room was very clean and so quiet. We didn't hear anyone else the whole weekend....

We stayed here to go skiing at Aspen Mountain. You can not beat the location as it is only about a 7-minute walk to the Gondola. It's also very convenient to shops and restaurants. The room was very clean and so quiet. We didn't hear anyone else the whole weekend. Beds were very comfortable, and it has a nice big shower with plenty of hot water. It's true the room is smaller, but that didn't bother us at all, as we didn't spend much time in our room. Breakfast had yummy pastries, cereal, hard-boiled eggs and good coffee. They also had wine, cheese and crackers in the afternoon. Staff was very nice and helpful. For its location, it was really reasonable compared to other hotels in Aspen, and I would gladly stay there again.
