I was there last week of January 2009. The skiing was brilliant, but as I said , the courtesy bus was a bit of a pain.
The Nordic is actually down in El Tarter. They hold the skiing awards there on Fridays. It's right at the bottom of a ski lift, and you can ski right into the back of the hotel. It's great, but obviously more expensive than the Euro Esqui. The boiled eggs I mentioned was not the Hotel ones. My mate is a bit of a tosser and comes out with strange things at times. :) |

Good Hotel with great food. San Miguel beer is really crap, and very gassy. Kronenberg 1664 not much better either, and costs 3.5 Euro. Staff are very good, and Christian, the Crystal Ski Rep was brilliant with a great sense of humour, 'Proper Job'.
My main gripe is the buses that ferry you to the El Tarter gondolas. At 9.15 in the morning, the queue's are 30 deep and more. You wait for 20 - 30 minutes for a bus. I might try the Nordic next time, as this backs on to the ski slopes and the gondola. Didn't see any of the world famous Andorra n boiled eggs though. My mate reckons they are best ever. I think they must time the 3 minutes much better than we do. |

Being a seasoned beer drinker, what's the average price of a pint in Soldeu? And where are the best places to go for cheap drinks and a laugh?
