Forbes Travel Guide awards Hotel Jerome four stars

ASPEN, COLORADO – Hotel Jerome, an Auberge resort in Aspen, Colorado, has been honored by Forbes Travel Guide with Four Stars in the guide’s 2014 star ratings. The Hotel will be showcased with all of the 2014 Forbes Star recipients on ForbesTravelGuide.com.

The historic property boasts Prospect, a new American bistro, the Living Room, a lounge/bar, and a new Auberge Spa in addition to its storied J-Bar, Aspen’s favorite watering hole.
