Christmas decorations at the Little Nell
Nestled at the base of Aspen Mountain, the Little Nell looks like a scene from a holiday movie—think windows framed with snow, emerald pine trees, and glowing Christmas lights. Each December, the boutique hotel goes all-out with festive decorations and seasonal menus at its five-star restaurant, Element 47, and the more casual Ajax Tavern, which guests can practically ski right into. Even if you can’t make it to the hotel’s annual tree lighting ceremony on December 9—complete with carolers, hot cocoa, ‘reindeer pups’ from the Aspen Animal Shelter, and, of course, Santa Claus—there will still be plenty of holiday spirit to go around, including decadent Christmas Eve dinners at both of the property’s restaurants. In addition to a guaranteed white Christmas, the Little Nell is also within walking distance of some of this season’s hottest new openings, including EMP Winter House and Betula—both of which are also sure to be decked out in festive finery.
