Public House Lofts - Historic Music-Themed Boutique Hotel with Mountain Views and Steam Showers

Located on Elk Avenue, this 4-star Crested Butte hotel occupies a restored 19th-century building that once served as the town's main pub. The three spacious lofts, situated above Public House music venue, draw inspiration from iconic venues like San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium and Manhattan's Beacon Theater. Each loft features high ceilings with exposed wood beams, king-size beds, walk-in closets, and en-suite bathrooms equipped with steam showers and soaking tubs. The air-conditioned suites include flat-screen TVs with streaming services, coffee makers, private wardrobes, and seating areas. Public House Lofts provides direct access to 1547 skiable acres at Crested Butte Mountain Resort and 30 miles of groomed Nordic trails.
