I think intermediates would have a good time but there is little to challenge the advanced in Arinsal.
Luckily it links to to Pal in the next valley that adds better Skiing and its also only a short drive to Arcalis or the Grandvalira area.
Skied: Arinsal, La Plagne, Alpe D'huez, Flaine, Les Arcs, Morzine, Les Gets, Avoriaz, Sauze, Courchevel, Val Thorens

Thanks. Not sure I can match Tony H's review of ADH though.

I did one for my short break to Andorra before Xmas. I am sure it can be found somewhere on here...


I reckon Soldeu is the best place to stay, Granvalira has nearly 200km of skiing, and loads of offpiste opportunity if conditions are good. Perfect for intermediates, not much piste wise to test advanced skiers, but certainly enough to go at for a week.

Sport Hotel looked excellent.

Dont forget to have a day trip to Arcalis.

Not sure I can answer that, as I have only skied a couple of days in Andorra, and the snow was very limited at the time. Plus I didnt stop in Soldeu.
However, in terms of infrastructure, lifts, runs, scenery, town, facilities etc, I think Soldeu is some way behind.
Having said that, its where I would stay if I went to Andorra for a week, but being perfectly honest there are lots more places I want to see before I plan to ski Andorra again.
Given a choice between Mayrhofen and Soldeu though, I'd choose M every time.
