Hotel Comapedrosa

Andorra's capital was busy when we arrived but the traffic calmed down as we drove towards La Massana and then Arinsal. Hotel Camapedrosa is on the main street of Arinsal, which is a ski resort in the winter but evidently still a lively tourist destination in early May! Our room was a standard twin room but had two of the tiniest balconies I've ever seen - each has only just enough room for a small chair! But they looked over the main street, so great for people-watching. The hotel receptionist was also in charge of the bar and she was friendly and welcoming and rustled up bar snacks for us hungry travellers! Breakfast was included in our room price and served in the bar next morning - very tasty and suitably filling! There is a large free public car park behind the hotel, so parking is easy and there's also a little trail which starts from it. As well as the 'old town' in the capital, we also visited the interesting Hydro-Electric museum in Encamp parish. The lady in the ticket office speaks English and she is very knowledgeable about the history of the museum building.

The staff here are absolutely amazing. Could not ask for better. WiFi is excellent, location and parking is excellent. Beds are very comfortable and the room was nice and warm. TV in the room was fine, and had channels in Spanish, Portuguese, french and English. Breakfast was good, except when busy as a lot of younger people were staying there. They would arrive first thing and hoarded all the pastries to take skiing with them. You'd watch them making baguettes etc and then taking them for lunch. Which meant if you didn't get there early you missed out. Dinner was excellent also. We had a set menu for 6 nights as it was quiet, but on Friday night there was a buffet which was amazing. Really nice. The bar downstairs was excellent, lovely locals, great prices on drinks and as I said excellent staff. The staff are the ones that make the place so good.

Location is great and very central. As a base for me and my boy it was ideal. The bed was comfortable and the room clean if a little dated.

Great location, spacious room, clean and functional. Great breakfast. Breakfast staff were fantastic in keeping the plates full.

The balcony with the awesome mountain view, Breakfast was amazing and more than enough for two travelers on a motorcycle. The staff gets a 10 out of 10! Perfect location for hiking the Pyrenees mountains. Only 15mins to the city center. Should you want to try other cuisines, there are numerous other options within walking distance
