JUST BACK FROM: TELLURIDE, COLORADO

At Global Travel Collection, we believe in the power of firsthand experience to enhance our clients' journeys. We collaborated with Auberge Resorts Collection to send four advisors to experience the breathtaking Madeline Hotel & Residences — perfectly situated in the small town of Telluride. We also had the chance to spend some time exploring Element 52, the ski-in, ski-out sister property to the Madeline, where no ask is too big.

Find Your Perfect Vacation

Telluride

WELCOME TO TELLURIDE

Telluride itself is a destination that should be on every traveler’s bucket list. Known for its laid-back charm, Telluride is where no one cares who you are or what you wear; this quaint town offers an entirely different atmosphere compared to more glitzy destinations like Aspen. Here, it’s all about the experience, and Madeline Hotel & Residences perfectly embodies that spirit. It’s a standout choice for clients seeking a refined yet relaxed mountain retreat.

Telluride

YOUR MOUNTAIN HIDEAWAY

The Madeline effortlessly blends luxury with comfort — there’s contemporary mountain style, and it’s clean and warm without being overly rustic. The rooms are expansive and thoughtfully designed, with modern touches like a TV integrated into the mirror and a spacious bathroom with a selection of plush bathrobes to elevate your relaxation.

Service is where the Madeline truly shines. From the moment you arrive, staff goes above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience. Every staff member is genuinely friendly and eager to assist, which adds to the hotel’s welcoming atmosphere.

For families or groups seeking more space, we recommend considering the residences at Element 52, managed by the same team as the Madeline. These 2–5 bedroom homes offer all the comforts of a private residence with the service you’d expect from a luxury hotel. Not to mention, the staff’s dedication to guest satisfaction is evident, and the private chef experience is a must.

Telluride

INDULGE IN EVERY LUXURY

Dining at the Madeline is an experience in itself. The Timber Room offers a unique family-style service that encourages sharing, while the Black Iron Kitchen is where clients can utilize the breakfast inclusions they receive when booking with a Global Travel Collection advisor. The spa is inspired by the alpine surroundings and the adrenaline-inducing adventures that make Telluride so special. Treatments are crafted by expert therapists, with nature-inspired therapies to restore you after a day of exploring the great outdoors.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the Madeline’s ski-in, ski-out access makes it an ideal choice for winter getaways, while summer, fall and spring visitors will appreciate its proximity to biking trails. The hotel is incredibly family-friendly, with plenty of activities for little ones, especially those who love dogs — Telluride is very dog-friendly, and you’ll see them everywhere!

When deciding on the Madeline or Element 52, reach out to your Global Travel Collection advisor for an in-depth overview of both properties. We’ll tailor your experience to match specific preferences, ensuring your stay in Colorado is nothing short of exceptional.

We have been working with Sarah for 4 years taking 3-4 cruises a year. Until we connected with Sarah we did not have a true agent, just random people who would get back to us "someday" maybe. Sarah will communicate ASAP either by email or phone. She has taken care of issues even while we were on ship. We always feel that she is working hard on our behalf whether it be booking a new cruise, answering questions, or resolving problems. Sarah is the reason we continue to use CruCon.
