Scout tips
- Rooms can be small, and many have restricted views.
- Those that have views (Main Street and Pandora rooms) can get a bit of noise from the street and bar below.
- The lobby is a happening place and can be crowded.
- There is no on-site gym, however guests receive complimentary access to a private gym three blocks away.
SCOUT REVIEW
If you’ve ever seen a photograph of Telluride’s Main Street, you will already know about The New Sheridan Hotel. For nearly 120 years it has been the heart of this historic town – and while the miners might have left many decades ago, today Telluride continues to come alive with local and visiting skiers. The hotel’s bar, in particular, is a happening place for apres.
The New Sheridan Hotel you see today was built in 1895 – the original burnt down in 1884. But that wasn’t the only transformation the hotel has been through – over the years it has been refurbished and remodeled several times. However the one thing that hasn’t changed is the hotel’s classic elegance, which can be seen in all of its (highly comfortable) rooms. Each room oozes with Victorian charm, and most feature either a king or queen bed, so best suited to couples or solo skiers.
As is often the case for older hotels, the rooms and bathrooms are a little on the small size – let’s just call them cozy. But it doesn’t really matter because you won’t be spending too much time in your room – you’ll be too busy tearing it up on the slopes, or enjoying a drink and a bite to eat at one of Telluride’s many bars and restaurants. In fact, two of the town’s most popular places are right downstairs! Chop House has fantastic steaks – make sure to ask about the nightly special which comes with a glass of wine. And the Historic Bar is the most popular watering hole in town.
Or if you’re looking for a way to unwind, there are two hot tubs on the roof of the hotel that offer incredible views of the slopes and mountains. After a long day of skiing, you’ll be glad you chose The New Sheridan. As your head hits the Egyptian Cotton pillow in your highly comfortable bed, sleep will come easily – enabling you to wake up refreshed and ready for more.
The New Sheridan is a popular choice for couples when it comes to Telluride lodging, with its unbeatable downtown location, and easy access to the gondola each morning.
Who should stay here
The New Sheridan Hotel in Telluride is for those who want to be in amongst the action – its location makes for a vibrant and hip stay, and is popular among couples and solo skiers.
Location
The New Sheridan Hotel really is the heart of Telluride. It’s located in the middle of the Main Street and so is central to everything. Plus the ski lifts are two blocks away – less than five minutes’ walk in ski boots.

Scout Booking Terms & Conditions
- Availability: Booking of all packages & accommodation is subject to availability at time of confirmation of package option by customer.
- Rate includes: All associated taxes. Some hotels charge extra fees for parking, cots, rollaways etc. Such fees can be confirmed on request based on your requirements.
- Payment Schedule:
- Deposit: 25% of the full amount is due WITHIN 7 DAYS OF CONFIRMATION to secure the booking.
- Final Balance: Invoice will be issued for the remaining balance 80 days prior to departure. PAYMENT IS DUE 70 DAYS PRIOR to departure. Failure to pay by 70 days may result in the auto-cancellation of accommodation by the accommodation provider or late payment fees.
- Bookings within 70 days: Full payment is required within 7 days to secure the booking.
- Variations: In some circumstances suppliers may have different payment policies to the above. Additionally some Early Bird deals require full payment by or soon after the book-by date. In these instances Scout will clearly communicate any variances prior to confirmation.
- Cancellation Policy:
- All deposits are non-refundable once received.
- For balance payments made within 70-45 days prior to the trip the deposit amount is non-refundable.
- No refund for total amount for cancellations 45 days or less prior to arrival and no-shows. In unexpected, unfortunate circumstances (family death etc) Scout will work to negotiate with the supplier for a full or partial refund, however this is not guaranteed. We recommend taking travel insurance to make sure you are covered. Cancelling due to weather, missed travel connections or lack of snow is not considered an unexpected circumstance and is one of the risks you must wear as part of taking a ski trip. Unless the supplier has a snow guarantee or weather cancellation policy, Scout will not refund any part of the package due to these factors.
- Variations: Please note that some hotels may have stricter policies (such as no refund within 60 days) and we are required to pass on these policies. We will communicate any varations to the above cancellation policy prior to confirmation of booking.
- Changes Policy:
- Once bookings are confirmed and deposit is paid service fees will apply for every amendment to existing elements, late final payment and travel document re-issue in addition to fees charged by suppliers
- In a few instances we purchase products through third party providers. If you change part of your package whilst at a destination, the 3rd party provider may have a different refund policy to that of the supplier in the destination. Wherever possible we will work to recover any refunds that come from a change at the destination, however it is not guaranteed.
- Surcharges: Scout does not charge any additional fees for the booking. Prices quoted are for cash (bank transfer) payments only. Credit card payments (Amex, Visa or Mastercard only) will be subject to 1.8% surcharge.
- Booking Currency: Scout will quote and charge in one currency of your choice from AUD, USD, CAD, JPY, EUR or GBP only.
- Currency Exchange Policy: If you book an international destination all remaining balances are subject to change (based on currency fluctuations) until the final payment has been processed. This can go either way (if your currency gets stronger you will be invoiced less!). We will confirm at the time of invoice what the final amount is, based on the exchange rate at that time. Should you wish to pay the balance earlier (prior to when it’s actually due) to secure that current exchange rate you are welcome to request the final invoice at any time. Once payments have been made (deposit or final balance), no refunds will be given for changes in the amount of what that payment would be, based on currency changes at any time prior to your trip.
- Travel Insurance: Once your booking is confirmed, we strongly recommend taking out travel insurance as it will often cover the cost of cancelled reservations.
