“Telluride is a town of great history, character and lore. It is where Butch Cassidy robbed his first bank and was the first city lit by Nikola Tesla’s method of alternating current electric power. More recently Telluride has been recognized as one of the best ski destinations in the U.S. and the world,” said Craig Reid, President and Chief Executive Officer, Auberge Resorts Collection. “The Madeline is the premier resort in Telluride and benefits from an unparalleled setting and concept as well as significant recent investment, making it an ideal addition to the Auberge Resorts Collection portfolio. We will capture the local Telluride free-spirited sense of adventure in this beautiful resort.”
“It was an easy decision to bring Auberge’s distinctive flare for blending luxurious experiences with the local flavor of a destination to the Madeline to complement its existing outstanding reputation and desirable location,” said Greg Flynn, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Flynn Properties.
Surrounded on three sides by the dramatic 14,000-foot peaks of the San Juan Mountains, the Madeline welcomes guests as well as locals with a contemporary alpine design that honors Auberge Resorts Collection’s commitment to celebrate the essence of each resort’s spectacular setting. Spacious, recently renovated guest rooms and suites and one- to four-bedroom residential condominiums were designed to the highest standards and offer expansive mountain and Mountain Village views, private balconies, heated floors and steam showers, and deep soaking bathtubs for relaxing after a day outdoors – among many others sophisticated amenities.
Further making the Madeline the envy of all Telluride hospitality, the resort offers world-class services catering to families, groups and anyone looking for the ultimate Telluride experiences, including: the best ski-in/ski-out access in town; slope-side Ski Valet offering seamless service and piping hot chocolate; The Madeline Ice Rink, where skaters can enjoy special event programming, DJ parties and broomball; the 3,000-square-foot M Lounge, featuring a game room (pool, shuffleboard, darts), outdoor fire tables and an indoor/outdoor bar; an alpine-inspired spa and salon, along with yoga and personal training at Madeline Studio; and even an outpost of Dylan’s Candy Bar.
Auberge and Executive Chef William Nolan will bring their award-winning culinary expertise to the Madeline’s contemporary signature restaurant, Black Iron Kitchen and Bar, delivering authentic, rustic cuisine with the pioneering spirit of the American West.
At the heart of the resort lies Telluride’s latest sought-after destination – the 4,000-square-foot Sky Terrace, a year-round gathering place with heated outdoor swimming pool, hot tubs, fire pits, al fresco living room and lounge and special seasonal programming. From the Sky Terrace’s 9,000-foot elevation, guests and residence owners can take in sweeping down-valley views and legendary sunsets, as well as distinctive cocktails and après ski events called “Cool at the Pool,” featuring pink flamingo floaties for the kids and adult hot toddies such as the “Tea-quila Toddy.”
An inspiring venue for mountain-view weddings, retreats or group gatherings, the Madeline features nearly 4,000 square feet of indoor meeting space, including a 3,300-square-foot ballroom that can accommodate up to 270 guests. Here, guests can breathe in the pure mountain air, nourish their spirit and discover new passions.
Madeline Hotel and Residences in Mountain Village will complement Auberge’s other Telluride property, The Auberge Residences at Element 52, a collection of 48 slope-side residences offered for nightly rental or whole ownership in the heart of Telluride.
