TELLURIDE, Colo.
Hotel Madeline Telluride in Telluride, Colorado, a ski-in ski-out, boutique hotel located within walking distance of the gondola connecting Mountain Village to historic Telluride, is unveiling new renovations and additions just in time for the 2013 ski season.
Among the changes and additions:
A striking new entrance, with a pair of fire pits to warm arrivals in the winter, and five flagpoles. A colorful new art collection, hand-selected by recently-appointed, resident art curator Sara Eyestone, adorns and brightens the hotel's public areas, and is for sale at the artists' studio prices. The collection appeals to art enthusiasts with paintings by Bruce Clovis Smith, Kathleen Frank, and Signe Bergman.
New retail outlets in Mountain Village include a second outpost for local favorite, Telluride Truffles; Paladin, an upscale boutique for furniture and decorating accessories, all made in the U.S.A; a gourmet food and wine store; and the first Starbucks in the area.
A new street entrance into Restaurant REV will spell convenience for locals and drop-in diners hungry for the farm-to-table menu of Executive Chef Cory Sargent and Chef de Cuisine Bud Thomas. Newly enhanced outdoor seating and a large fire pit for SMAK bar, as well as an awning to keep guests and locals warm in winter, will set the tone for a year-round, open-air venue. The bar boasts a new 70-inch HDTV, three more large HDTVs and sound system for televising events such as the Academy Awards and Super Bowl.
The hotel will be adding 12 new queen guest rooms, with furniture, fixtures and electricity up to the standards of The Leading Hotels of the World, to their inventory, while all suites and condos will receive new HDTV and stereo sound systems.
The hotel has 96 guest rooms, 11 suites and 16 condos, with 3,000 square feet of function space.
