TELLURIDE, Colo., Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Madeline
Hotel & Residences, Auberge Resorts Collection today debuts a
dramatic redesign, unveiling a luxuriously reimagined modern
mountain resort in Telluride.
Located at 10,540 feet, the ski-in/ski-out mountain retreat
features new social spaces, including Timber Room, a vibrant new
indoor-outdoor après ski bar and lounge, which is poised to become
the most sought-after gathering place in Telluride, a refreshed lobby and a new
boutique. Complementing the redesign is a collection of engaging
new guest experiences and amenities – from ice-climbing and other
adrenaline-pumping outdoor pursuits, to restorative wellness
offerings, including a new hydration bar. Madeline also introduces
a new collaboration with Olympian Gus Kenworthy, who helped create
the resort's new Recovery Ski Lounge, offering a range of advanced
post-workout therapies.
"We are thrilled to welcome guests, homeowners and neighbors to
our revitalized resort with its modern approach to luxury mountain
living," said Bryan Woody, general
manager, Madeline Hotel & Residences, Auberge Resorts
Collection. "In this panoramic alpine setting, we have created
one-of-a-kind experiences that celebrate the best ski mountain in
the U.S. It has been a sincere pleasure to work with the passionate
Auberge team, the design visionaries at Rose Ink Workshop, our
talented culinary team, our friend Gus
Kenworthy and our local community of artisans to transform
Madeline and solidify its position as one of the top mountain
resorts in the world."
Miami-based interior design
team, Rose Ink Workshop, led Madeline's redesign, creating a modern
look that offers a chic, yet approachable respite from Telluride's active outdoor lifestyle. The new
design envelops guests in a luxurious and welcoming year-round
mountain environment with a distinct connection to Telluride's mountain heritage and culture.
Introducing Timber Room
Anchored by a commanding double-sided fireplace, the newly debuted
Timber Room, which opens today, blends chalet vibes with modern
elements. Designed for couples and larger groups of friends, the
social heart of the resort features cozy lounges for two and chic
booths punctuated by mountain landscapes. An ornate oak bar
inspired by folkloric alpine design is a nod to jet-setting ski
destinations such as Magève and Gstaad. Timber Room's outdoor space
leads into Reflection Plaza, the most picturesque setting in
Telluride, where guests can keep
warm under sheepskin blankets and nestle next to a fire pit
overlooking Mountain Village's
beloved ice rink.
Bustling après-ski festivities commence daily at Timber Room at
3:00 p.m., followed by Executive Chef
Bill Greenwood's ceremonial Alphorn
serenade at 3:30 pm at Reflection
Plaza, signaling across the mountain that it's time to gather and
exchange stories from the day's adventures over creative cocktails,
warming beverages and innovative dishes. Timber Room's menu is
refined, celebratory and designed to be shared. It complements the
spirit of the mountainscape and begins with shareable "Graze"
plates such as Duck Terrine Toast and the signature Timber Room
Baked Potato with crème fraîche and caviar, followed by "Feast"
plates, or larger family style dishes including Rocky Mountain Elk
with local huckleberry jus. Dishes are presented on custom serving
boards made by local artisan Matt
Downer using native hardwoods and local slate, while marbled
ceramic vessels hand-shaped by Telluride-based ceramicist Tara Carter and a custom collection of ceramic
share plates made by LGS Studio beautifully bring the cuisine to
life.
Timber Room's cocktail menu showcases modern interpretations of
classic libations with mountain touches such as blue spruce-infused
syrup and slow-drip spiced bourbon, along with signature toasty
cocktails perfect for fireside après. Guests can explore the
interplay between fire and ice with smoky cocktails on the rocks,
such as the New Fashioned or Eve in Eden, contrasted with the
steaming TNT, the perfect marriage of Telluride Whiskey,
Montenegro and Steaming Bean
Telluride coffee, shaken cream and fresh grated nutmeg. Adventurous
groups can opt for tableside leather bota bags brimming with Timber
Room's house blend of vin chaud for spirited imbibing.
Culinary offerings from Chef Greenwood are also available at
Black Iron Kitchen + Bar, where guests are greeted with an inviting
"come as you are" atmosphere, indoor-outdoor seating, entertainment
and Chef's fully transformed menu, including the impressive 32 oz.
Wagyu Dry Aged Bone In Ribeye that's sure to satisfy after a day
full of adventure. The new Great Room offers endless ways to
indulge in life's simple pleasures with classic board games such as
backgammon and mancala, along with a brand-new hydration station.
Here, a rotating mix of hydration options will not only quench
thirst, but also help acclimate guests to Telluride's high altitude. Surrounded by the
soaring peaks of the San Juan Mountains, the outdoor Sky Terrace beckons guests with its year-round
heated pool and two hot tubs, refreshments, daily Alpine s'mores
and unbeatable photo opportunities.
New Experiences
A new collection of experiences will immerse guests in Telluride's rich scenic beauty and year-round
adventures. Thrill-seekers can embark on a unique Telluride experience and climb Mystic Falls,
an iconic Colorado waterfall, and
use a Tyrolean Traverse to descend across a rocky gorge above the
frozen falls. For adventure enthusiasts, a helicopter tour of the
San Sophia ridgeline, traveling up to 13,000 feet, is available for
an awe-inspiring look at the jagged peaks. After a day on the
slopes, guests can retreat to Gus
Kenworthy's Recovery Ski Lounge, which features Hyperice,
Normatec, and Hypervolt therapies, along with a cool-down playlist
curated by Kenworthy himself.
Madeline's unrivaled Mountain
Village location provides guests with easy access to outdoor
adventures - from alpine skiing, dog sledding and fly fishing in
the winter, to hiking and stand-up paddle boarding on nearby alpine
lakes in the summer. Guided activities and lessons are offered for
guests of all ages. Off the slopes, wellness experiences include
mindfulness sessions, classes with visiting masters and new
signature spa treatments at Telluride's most popular spa.
A New Sense of Arrival
The design and energy of the transformed Madeline Hotel &
Residences, Auberge Resorts Collection is felt from the moment
guests arrive into a lobby that is both cozy and chic. Convivial
seating areas mix vintage and custom furniture and a textured color
palette that defines modern luxury in Telluride. Hotel guests are greeted by
Adventure Guides, a team of local Telluride concierges who collectively
represent more than 60 years of residency in town, and who hold the
keys to all the best adventures, dining and entertainment available
in the region.
Upon check-in, guests are offered seasonal Telluride Brewing
company draft beer in Colorado-mined copper mugs, while kids enjoy
Rocky Mountain sodas. A new retail boutique, created in
collaboration with Sacred Thistle, sits off the lobby and offers a
selection of beautifully handcrafted home goods, jewelry and
unusual, earthy treasures. Additional items in the retail gallery
include custom hats and a selection of books ranging from fine art
photography to vintage and rare titles celebrating outdoor
adventure in the Rocky Mountains.
