Arinsal, located in the Andorran Pyrenees at 1,500 meters above sea level, is ideally situated for outdoor pursuits, including mountain biking in the summer and skiing in the winter. Arinsal, a prominent ski and snowboarding destination in Andorra, is a component of the Vallnord Pal-Arinsal region. When the snow melts, it becomes one of the biggest bike resorts in Europe, including downhill and cross-country trails for riders of all skill levels.
Diana Parc Andorra
Will the sound of rooms decorated in The Jungle Book make your children smile? Reserve a room at Hotel Spa Diana Parc, the Princesa Parc’s sister hotel. Since it is part of the same property, the same family-friendly features are available. Cycling enthusiasts use the area frequently throughout the summer because of the hotel’s suggested routes, bike storage, and wellness center. You won’t want to leave the jacuzzi once you get in.
Princesa Parc
This sizable spa resort offers everything needed for a family vacation in Arinsal. There are connected rooms available for families, in addition to a variety of amenities like a kids’ club, an indoor and outdoor pool, and a four-lane bowling alley. You’ll have a lot of options thanks to the four restaurants and bars available, including the white tablecloth Louis XV. With only 150m between you and the Arinsal cable car, you may easily get there while dragging young children with aching feet.
Hotel Palome
Sports enthusiasts would adore Hotel Palome. It is renowned for its fitness packages, which include HIIT, yoga, and Pilates sessions with the on-staff personal trainer, as well as massages and dietary guidance. Champagne and candles can be ordered for the accommodation, and couples can also go on a lavish lunch in the mountains. It is located in a more tranquil area of the village of Arts, a two-minute drive or fifteen minutes’ walk from Arinsal.
Ushuaia Mountain
The Ushuaia Mountain Hotel is the best option for ski-in and ski-out lodging. You can quickly change out of your ski boots and enter the sauna because it is located directly next to the Vallnord ski lift. For lots of storage space, a terrace with mountain views, and a welcome basket of cava and chocolates, reserve a modern Mountain Premium Room. In the Tasters bar, where dinner is also served, you may start the day with a buffet breakfast, and the Off-Piste Gastro Bar, where live music and chilled beer are offered, is where you can end it.
The Lodge at Ribasol
The nicest self-catering lodgings in Arinsal are these well-serviced apartments. Expect Scandinavian simple rooms that can accommodate up to six individuals. Standard amenities include fully furnished kitchens with Nespresso coffee makers, secure parking, and access to a gym are available for an additional charge. The Comapedrosa Natural Park is about 800 meters away, and the closest ski lift is located directly behind the complex.
Patagonia Atiram
One of the standout features at the Patagonia Atiram Hotel is the outdoor jacuzzi with views of the Pic de Coma Pedrosa. You’ll hear its voice as you return from a day spent on the mountain. Every room has a kitchenette with a stove, refrigerator, and microwave. A six-person flat is an upgrade if you want more extensive cooking amenities. By using the nearby ski lift, you may access the slopes and then ski back down a blue route that ends next to the hotel.
Hotel Mu Plaza Andorra
At Hotel Mu, a wellness boutique hotel in the village of Ordino, 15 minutes’ drive east of Arinsal, cow print wall art, lampshades, and cushions are everywhere. After relaxing your achy muscles in the outdoor hot tub, sip a refreshing drink on the terrace while gazing at the snow-capped mountains. Additionally, there is a sauna inside for cloudier days. The chic, black-and-white restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as snacks. Although the slopes are not close by, a complimentary shuttle bus runs often from the front desk.
Hotel Micolau
In one of Arinsal’s oldest structures, the Hotel Micolau, vibrant splashes of color alternate with the stone walls and wooden beams. The ski lift is a one-minute walk away, so even if the rooms are sparse, you won’t spend much time in them. Families should reserve the four-person, two-room studio. Although a continental breakfast is included as part of your stay, you do need those calories to climb the mountain, after all. Enjoy some apres-ski cocktails at the bar to cap off the day.
