The Team
The Rocky Mountain Inn is the vision of a group of longtime friends based between Paonia, Colorado, and Austin, Texas. Their extensive travels, through both grand hotels and tucked-away gems, have shaped the hospitality approach at the RMI. Drawing from their most memorable stays, they’ve created an experience that blends comfort, character, and thoughtful detail, all rooted in genuine care for every guest. Expect hand-blown glassware, a selection of locally made art on the walls, a curated coffee selection from regional roasters, artisan-crafted furniture, and organic sheets - just a few of the many touches that make the RMI feel like home.
