Aspen Galena

Set only two blocks from the gondola and downtown Aspen, this sleek apartment boasts stunning vistas of Aspen Mountain and Red Mountain, with western sunset views providing a delightful backdrop to a cosy evening in. The open-plan living and dining area is the hub of the home, with an eight-person dining table, 60-inch flat-screen TV and gas fireplace. Can’t agree on what to watch? Both bedrooms have their own flat-screen TVs too. After a day on the slopes, ease aching muscles in the on-site hot tub and heated pool, or work off any indulgences at the complex’s workout area. As a bonus, guests receive complimentary health club passes upon check-in. If you’re visiting in the summer months, make use of the communal grill for a barbecue evening.

Home truths:
*This complex doesn’t have a lift
