SalaryDesigned by award-winning studio Post Company, MOLLIE's interiors are subtly inspired by the Aspen tradition of being firmly grounded while gazing abroad - a seamless blend of understated luxury and residential comfort. The property holds a quiet confidence and commitment to a reduction of excess with interiors that thoughtfully utilize native materials from Aspen and the wider Western region, accentuated with natural woods, earthen ceramics, and hand-dyed textiles. MOLLIE’s lobby fosters an inviting atmosphere for visitors and locals alike, where the mix of differing personas is celebrated and upheld.
The hotel's food & beverage programs are spearheaded by Gin & Luck, the group behind the critically acclaimed Death & Co. brand and consists of a lobby bar and restaurant with year-round outdoor seating and a laid-back all-day café. Set atop MOLLIE's top floor is a rooftop spa pool and terrace that transforms into an intimate lounge by night, with unobstructed views of Aspen Mountain. MOLLIE Aspen has been developed by HayMax Capital, a leading local development firm, specializing in Aspen hospitality and residential development.
