Aspen Ice Arena Review

Nice place.. good is ok.. just wish they cleaned the ice half way through the session

Great facility. Friendly families. Staff was polite.

I went to the arkade and it stole my money then I went to the main desk j told them if they could come fix it and instead they just gave me money...

Arena is kept in fairly good condition. The locker room and bathrooms can be updated and cleaned, but is expected for a hockey arena. Staff are friendly and the store offers plenty of equipment, etc. There is plenty of parking available.

$15 for open skate with rental for very choppy cut up ice with snow. Classes before the open skate chopped it up and they did not Zamboni between the sessions. Not a great experience for newbies

Nice place. Mennen was rented out completely so we found Aspen. Nice place for a party. Good pro shop. Nice upper level observation rooms. Good snack bar.

Good skating place and not that expensive. Good for parties and friends.... if you have any

I love watching my friends play and grabbing a bite while I'm at it

Nice place to take the kids ice skating and have some fun

Says it s open but when we get there it is not open. This is the 5th time.

UNPROFESSIONAL , BAD COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN STAFFS ,COACHES ,AND MANAGEMENTS ,THERE IS NO ACCURATE DECISIONS ,AND THEY ARE ALL ABOUT MONEY ,NO APPRECIATIONS OF TALENTS ,AND IF YOUR NAME NOT JOHN ,BOB,OR SMITH ,YOU WILL BE IGNORED IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN,THE BOTTOM LINE ,THIS PLACE IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO SEND YOUR KIDS TO AWFUL TO SAY THE LEAST .

New and clean facility. Great staff that is always willing to help.

Cold at the rink (maybe second coldest to Ice House) but viewing from the upstairs isn't so bad. Aspen and Vail, a little on the more expensive side but good facilities and farther from the city make it less busy when hockey isn't in season. Yoga and barre classes upstairs many times and a small food counter plus kitchen with reasonably priced snacks. A small shop, too, for basic figure skating and a lot of hockey supplies.

Great venue. Skating and hockey lessons run by energetic and dedicated people. Some minor administration issues, but overall a well run place.

Great place but if you wsnt food. bring cash as they don't take cards.

It is a wonderful place to learn all types of skating. The management and staff are fantastic. I love watching my grand children skate at Aspen Ice

My kids enjoy the ice skating there and the grilled cheese too

Not a bad rink.....and their hockey team is very nice to play. Overall great

Nice ice and the owner really helpful with my six year old daughter

Loved it big rink nice staff I would go everyday if I can

love that they offer affordable ice skating lessons

Very nice facility with friendly, professional staff. My kids love skating here!

Nice rink, lots of skate related amenities with an arcade for those kids.not skating. Skate sharpening isnt really good tho.

I'm not sure management does the best job here. I come here every Tuesday with my dad to skate and it seems they're terrible at scheduling ice slots. The pro shop has awful hours and isn't even open until closing which is tough for older leagues that play later. I also came for an open skate with my girlfriend and it's $14 per person for an open skate which is stupid expensive...

We love Aspen Ice! Excellent figure skating instruction, and very supportive environment. My daughter has made such progress in her skating over just a few months and we owe it all to Aspen Ice and her skating coach Katie H. Great facilities for parents as I can watch her skate from the warm observation area upstairs, and I don't have to be cold by the ice. Their summer camp and holiday camps give excellent instruction. I can't say enough good things about Aspen Ice. I feel it's my home away from home as we are there so often!

Great place to have a birthday party and skate! Loves it!

As a traveling hockey parent I felt comfortable. It is clean and has upstairs viewing. Hockey rinks vary but are never high end. So my 5 stars is based on compfort and cleanliness only.

I really want to give recognition to a phenomenal coach who works at Aspen Ice. It has been a pleasure working with Silvia D'Avola. I am learning to be a coach myself and she has gone above and beyond to help train and mentor me. She is amazing at what she does and her passion for her career and students is truly exceptional. I love working with her and I'm learning more than I ever thought I would. She's always energetic and positive and her students notice this energy. I really am learning from the best. She's given me such a great opportunity! She is one of the reasons that I love Aspen Ice!

Lots of open skate hours on the weekends although 9 dollars a person seems a little high to me. 2 sheets of ice so they can accommodate a lot of people. The building is relatively clean and pro shop has a good selection of products

Love Aspen Ice. Great instructors. In 10 months time my 5 year old son went from barely being able to stand on ice skates to being on his first cross ice team. The snow plow Sam lessons and Learn to Play classes are wonderful.

Conveniently located, clean and with a friendly staff and pro shop.

Great facility, but very little time for public skating - and during a week, the morning public skating hours make no sense

This place has multiple wifi networks but can't believe that none of them are open to parents of skaters who have to hang around for hours there each week.

Instructors and staff have never been anything short of amazing. Snackbar is cash only($3 surcharge ATM on site) and reasonably priced. Kids love coming here! Pro shop is run by Middlebury who have a large shop across the street.

Very nice clean rink. Definitely bundle up, as it is colder than some others.

Play hockey in the adult league here. Ice is well kept and so are the locker rooms

Kids had fun. Areas for spectators are not very clean.

Can be hard to get in for open skating, but nicely maintained and fun!

Convenient, ok snack bar not great, owner is a grump!

LOVED IT.. WE WERE THERE YSTRDY 4 A COMP ..VERY WELL MAINTAINED ..IM JEALOUS ..I'M FROM NYC..

Very nice ! Much better than it was as Aspen Ice.
Needs a working Wifi however.

My son started with learn to skate at aspen and now is moving up to hockey classes. He has enjoyed his coaches and lessons. The reason for 4 stars is there isn t much open skate time available to practice around lessons.

Best Ice in the area! The new management has done a great job of resurrecting the rink and creating a great environment for the kids and a well run Men's league!

What can I say best rink I've been to in years. We had a fall in our group and had to leave early and the staff was so caring

We've had 2 parties here & have been to free skate a few times.
The parties aren't run very well: one occasion it was very frustrating to have a noon party & have the "Leader" show up to start her set-up at noon.
The second time we had to wait for the scheduled Hockey game to end because it was running into our party time on the ice because of overtime. The business clearly didn't care that it went over & we were reasonably frustrated as two of our guests had to leave 15 minutes early meaning they missed most of the fun after we started over 20 minutes late.

The rink itself is nice but if you are unfortunate enough to have the younger hockey team skaters hang around they WILL terrorize the rink by skating dangerously close & fast to other guests which is not good for new skaters. The staff lets them get away with it.

It was clear to us every visit who their owners priories are.

Great place! Hockey summer camp is great. My son learned so much from the coaches.

Good parking. Bathrooms are large and clean Ice was well Maintained Food available.

This rink has a great indoor and outdoor viewing area to watch a good hockey game.

My son has played a few games and tournaments here, nice rink, snack bar is a bit expensive for what's provided.

The place could be more exciting, but it's stock in the 19th century.change the: Game room: monitors that plays different games,with art on the walls. Change the tables' sitting to more comfortable, and 21th century sitting. The place is fun. But after a while...well, time to go. Owners...time to bring 21th century! And receive the rewards. Probably build a resort, there's weekend, holidays, vacations, or just a get away for the day. Start planning...make smiles.

Clean, efficient venue. Wish the snack bar took more than cash only

Love Aspen Ice! My son just did a hockey camp there for a week and was so sad it was over.. We have been going there since April and now our family even does the open skate times on the weekends!

Dull skates,ice rink poor, kids going wrong way against traffic.

Nice place for a child's birthday. Staff is extremely helpful and good care of the kids.

Great Rink, Very clean, have a lot to offer for kids of all all ages and skating levels of all ages.

The ice sucks now but the rest of the facility's are good.

Great place, great staff, always enjoy my time on the Aspen Ice Sheet, kudos to Marc, Linda, Steve, Tom, Sammy, Miquel and all the skating instructors. Awesome hot chocolate too !
