Hotel was in a good location for the Skiing Gondola, but the condition of the rooms were basic and the service woeful in places. Food was "school canteen" quality, and the breakfast routine was an assault course of collecting food and cutlery from illogical areas of the "restaurant" room. One major annoyance was the storage of ...

Great value with a friendly service - what a location also!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/26/07
I arrived at the Hotel Solana in Arinsal, Andorra after reading some web reviews of the hotel - those reviews had filled me with some trepidation but soon after arrival I found most of what I had read to be very unfair and not at all what I experienced. I had a wonderful time with a value for money hotel, very friendly and helpful staff and ...

Not As Bad As Reported
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/02/07
Read lots of negative reviews about hotel, but all are unfounded in our experience. Just back from a week in the hotel and our only moan is that dinner is at eight in the evening and a bit late for children. Room in the new wing more than adequate for a family of four. Plenty of space for all our clothes and cleaned everyday. The pool was a bit ...

very central in the heart of Arinsal
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/20/06
The Hotel is basic but comfortable and the food is good. There are two bars one for families and one for young people. Nighlife is good. Hotel is close to the Gondola. Skiing is excellent.

don't even think about staying here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/01/06
The standard rooms are extremely small (about 10'x10') the ensuite bathrooms laughable---we could not sit on the toilet and close the door, tiles broken or missing, wash-basin cracked, lampshade burnt, light switch broken & dangerous. we booked with inghams who simply gave me a complaints form, the management of the hotel pointed out (very reasonabley) that the tour companies knew what the rooms were like & still they block booked them
I read a number of mixed reviews prior to my trip but because of the cost we went with it. First impression was OK however, once we started to unpack in a triple room we soon realised there was neer enough no room to get our luggage out and be able to move. Worringly there were bare wires in the bathroom where a lightswitch should have been, not ...

Avoid
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/06/06
Simply dire. Dirty, tired-looking, food appalling, noisy, staff rude and unhelpful. You couldn't pay me to stay here again. Decor out of the sixties, signs telling you not to steal food/ towels, rooms underheated, pool and running water cold. Avoid at all costs - try the St Gothard, Princesa Parc or a chalet.

Thanks to the hotel for the service we'll meet again

Didn't want to leave!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/08/05
My visit to Arinsal, Andorra was the best holiday I've ever been on. Staying at Hotel Solana was absolutly ideal, it was close to the bottom of the mountain for skiing&snowboarding. It was situated around all the good nightlife, and had a really friendly atmosphere about it. The food was quite poor, but there was pleanty of good resaurants to ...

Never go!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/05/05
It is probably the worst hotel I ever been, the rooms seem to be inspired in the rooms of the 19 Th century serviliants. Be very carefull with everything you ask for, even to change room, because they will ask you for an extra payment. This place shouldnet be called a 3* hotel, but a 0* place to stay on vacation.
