“Skiing in Grandvalira”

My wife and I brought our son (19) and daughter (14) to Andorra for a long weekend of skiing in Grandvalira. An old friend recommended this boutique hotel as the best place in Andorra in terms of elegance, service, food, privacy, and ski-in ski-out convenience. Her recommendation proved true! Even before we arrived, the hotel had booked a guide to show our children the connecting slopes, arranged lift tickets, organized the rental of equipment, and reserved a locker for overnight storage. Our two rooms were beautifully appointed, with balcony views of the slopes. We opted for half-pension in the hotel's restaurant, enjoying breakfast and dinner each day. The food and service were excellent, on par with the best restaurants in Barcelona! The meals were truly gourmet (with a separate menu for the children which they loved), accompanied by a very good wine selection. The children absolutely loved the slopes despite the lack of snow the week before. Their guide helped them discover the interconnected slopes that did have sufficient snow, and they were able to ski from Grau Roig to Soldeu, El Tarter, Pas de la Casa, Canillo, and Encamp. It was not the Colorado experience they are used to, but they still had a wonderful time! Finally, the hotel provided a very pleasurable spa experience. The spa staff, the services, and the ambiance were perfect! We visited other hotels in the area and none met the standards here! We definitely will return and recommend this place without hesitation. Hotel Grau Roig is a gem!

“Wonderful Experience”

Fabulous experience during pre-season fall. The location has Great Pyrenees hiking around the ski hill and the facility is very romantic. The spa is outstanding although it’s a little small and can really only accommodate around 6 couples and then, only some will actually have chairs. The Fromagerie restaurant was a lot of fun. The Beef fondue was excellent.

We stayed at the Grau Roig Hotel for a week and they really looked after us. All of the staff, whether at breakfast, dinner or at reception were superb. Breakfast and dinner were both excellent as was our room. We attended their Theatre Of Wine, a tasting menu with wine pairings, it was very nice, a special mention must go to our host (apologies I've forgotten his name as I'm old ) an Argentinian guy, who spoke very good English, was very passionate and knowledgeable about the wine & food he was serving us, so a special thank you to him from both of us. Location wise, for hiking it's brilliant as you have several routes eg Pic Des Pessons right by the hotel. I imagine the skiing would be very good too but having not stayed there in the season I'm not really placed to comment. We hired a car and you'll need one if you want to visit other restaurants, bars and towns/villages. Andorra La Vella (the capital) was roughly a 30 minute drive from the hotel or roughly 40 Euros by taxi. So a final big thank you to everyone at The Grau Roig Hotel for making our stay a very enjoyable one.

On the plus side the staff were very caring and polite. The hotel was incredibly clean and it seemed the room was checked several times a day. On arrival we were told there would be present giving for the children in the lounge but when we went down there nowhere to sit so that didn’t work. The Christmas Eve meal was very nice but I had to ask for my starter of a glass of champagne(my husband doesn’t drink) and I did think an extra 200€ on top of the half board price excessive. It certainly is ski in ski out if that is a priority. The room was nice with a big shower and jacuzzi bath but the lighting was terrible there was a nice magnifying mirror but the right side of my face was almost in darkness, and the lighting by the bed wasn’t good enough for to read a book good thing I have a Kindle. I also didn’t like the faux fur decorations on every thing. I have only given three stars mainly because it was very expensive and didn’t quite live up to my expectations.
