What MOLLIE ASPEN does

MOLLIE Aspen is a privately-held, 68-room luxury boutique hotel operating at 111 S. Garmisch St. in downtown Aspen, Colorado, across from Paepcke Park. The property opened in December 2023 after a 15-year development cycle by HayMax, a Colorado-based developer, with interiors by Post Company and architecture by CCY Architects. It serves affluent leisure travelers, couples, small groups, corporate retreat and event planners, and Aspen-area locals, with room categories ranging from 185 sq ft Snug Kings to a 690 sq ft two-bedroom Park View Corner Suite. Two consecutive MICHELIN Keys (2024, 2025) and four Hospitality Design Awards including Best in Show (2024) have positioned the property as a design-forward, understated alternative to Aspen's traditional alpine-resort aesthetic, drawing editorial coverage in Vogue, GQ, Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, Architectural Digest, and National Geographic.

The hotel's product surface spans multiple F&B venues anchored by Petit Trois Aspen, the first Petit Trois location outside Los Angeles, operated by Chef Ludo Lefebvre since December 2025, complemented by a Cafe & Wine Bar, the Petit Familia rooftop bar, and the Roof Terrace spa pool with 180-degree Aspen Mountain views. Supporting infrastructure includes in-room guest service tablets, 55-inch UHDTVs with casting, a MOLLIE mobile app with valet request functionality, a fitness room (Peloton and TechnoGym), Bluejay e-bike rentals, complimentary ski and airport shuttles, a Rivian electric-vehicle fleet, and an event program including the Weaving Room (capacity 60 reception, 30 classroom) and Roof Terrace (capacity 80). A curated lobby and online retail boutique at shopmollieaspen.com extends the brand's design sensibility into e-commerce.

Revenue is generated across six streams: nightly room revenue with seasonal and package pricing, F&B across all venues plus in-room dining and event catering, retail boutique transactions, private event bookings with full catering and AV, valet parking at $60 per night, and pet fees of $50 per night (capped at $150). Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the hotel website and mobile app, supplemented by membership in Preferred Hotels & Resorts' L.V.X. collection, OpenTable for restaurant reservations, and Toast Tab for gift card purchases. Marketing relies on earned editorial media, an active Journal blog with 30+ articles, a structured influencer collaboration program, an events calendar that draws both guests and locals, and partnerships with brand-aligned names such as NATUROPATHICA, Sightglass Coffee, rag & bone, and Chrome Horse Tequila.
