Poster: A snowHead

Hi all,
After several years spoiling ourselves in some great resorts we are taking the kids for the first time. We are thinking Andorra and are looking at Hotel Solana in Arinsal. Its looks basic and you get what you pay for I guess, anyone been ??
Thanks

Hi BenSki25,
I know the Solana well, although I haven't been in any of the bedrooms for a couple of years (that sounds weird, I know). It is basic, but is reasonably comfortable and fairly well-regarded by past guests. It's about 250 metres down the main road from the gondola & bars/restaurants which are clustered in Arinsal village centre. It has an indoor swimming pool (really tiny though) and a popular big bar/club in the basement (roadside ground floor entrance).
Imagine the sort of standard 3-star hotels you see all over the Med and that's pretty much what to expect.
There's not much to do in the evenings for children in Arinsal, but if your kids are either very young or in their mid-late teens it'll be ok.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Yeah I stayed here about 9 years ago. As mentioned above it is basic but it was fine for us. We didnt have any kids with us though but the pool, although small, will be good for them for a dip.
As I remember there was a buffet for breakfast and dinner so you could pick your own things and load your plate up on things you liked!
One thing though is the transfer - are you going with a TO? 4 hours on a coach from Toulouse might not be the best for little ones?

Stayed there last year, basic but not bad. Had a good stay and it's in a good spot in the village.
