Madeline Hotel & Residences, An Auberge Resorts Collection

Inspiration from the Colorado Rockies echoes through every meeting at Madeline Hotel & Residences, An Auberge Resorts Collection. The hotel lies steps from the Telluride Gondola and a half block from the Telluride Conference Center. Delegates meet in over 5,200 square feet of indoor space at the resort, which includes the Idarado Ballroom, divisible into three soundproof sections. The more than 7,400 square feet of outdoor space, available seasonally, encompasses the 6,240-square-foot Plaza. Steps away, the town’s conference center offers another 14,000 square feet.

Every guest receives a custom itinerary based on individual requirements, tastes, and requests. Even before arrival, the concierge arranges tee times at the Telluride Ski & Golf Club, for instance, or restaurant reservations, film festival tickets, or a kayak trip down the San Miguel River. Guests can either build in visits to the spa, fitness center, or indoor pool or drop by at leisure. The same applies to sampling the menus at the M’s Restaurant and Bar M.

In winter, ski valets warm guests’ boots and attend to overnight storage, waxing, and deburring. Madeline Hotel & Residences, An Auberge Resorts Collection boasts the best ski-in, ski-out access in town.

Between meetings and recreation, the 95 rooms and suites (plus 11 condominiums) offer all the comforts of home—plus Pratesi linens, LCD TVs, iPod connections, and wireless LAN connection. Framed by Colorado wood, stone, leather, and traditionally styled, handcrafted furnishings, picture windows and balconies invite the outdoors in, affording views that stretch from the rugged peaks above to the vibrant village and valley below.
