Hotel Palarine

Arinsal is a beautiful village in Andorra, set at an altitude of between 1550 and 2560 metres. In the summer Arinsal is home to walkers and bikers, as well as those who just want to relax in the beautiful mountain scenery. In the winter, it offers excellent skiing and snowboarding for beginners, as well as a good selection of runs for intermediates. Arinsal is part of Vallnord which means that Arcalis and Pal are included with the lift pass, offering a fantastic variety of runs, as well as some great places to ski off-piste.

Arinsal is linked by high speed cable car to the tree lined runs of neighbouring Pal. There is a small local area above Arinsal’s gondola which is a narrow, east facing bowl of open slopes. Arinsal and Pal both have gentle nursery slopes to encourage beginners, and long easy runs to progress to. Intermediates will enjoy both Arinsal and Pal, however the more confident intermediate will want to explore Pal where the runs are a lot more interesting and varied. There are short, sharp slopes at Arinsal for the advanced skier and some great off piste skiing in both Arinsal ,Pal and above all in Arcalis..

A haven to retreat to, dedicated to rest, getting back in shape, health and beauty.


Caldea uses the water which emerges from the thermal source in Escaldes-Engordany at 68º C to create a harmonious interrelation between the body and water in futuristic surroundings. In ancient Catalan, the word 'caldea' means tonifying and warm.

In Roman times, the word 'calidae', from which the name of the town of Escaldes in Andorra originates, designated a warm water source. Two thousand years later, Caldea offers you a new form of well-being and enjoyment, an encounter with water in all its possible forms, from steam to ice, from Japan to Finland...
