General Comments

Aparthotel El Pirineu was up a hill, which can be a bit heavy, going with big suitcases. We were fine since we had backpacks. At the end of the day after a hard days skiing it was the last thing you wanted to do, but it did help to stretch the muscles.
The hotel is also called "Hotel Alba", this confused us at first, there are no big signs out side with "El Pirineu". The resort is quieter than Soldeu, so if it's nightlife you're looking for book there.
The hotel was of a good standard and the staff were friendly. The room were ok, we had a duplex, for 8 people, 2 twins upstairs, 4 bed's downstairs with 2 upstairs bathrooms/shower and 1 toilet downstairs. The water was hot 24hrs.
The rooms were cleaned and the beds were made everyday, whilst we were skiing.
Majority of our party were vegetarian, which we thought may be a problem. We were pleasantly surprised which the restaurant in the hotel. The breakfast was good , they had the usual cereals and bread plus tea ,coffee and hot chocolate.
For dinner the restaurant provided 3 course meal. The staff provides a menu with the days menu. Sometimes there were no vegi options listed, but when we asked the staff, they bend over backwards to create something and the quality of food was great.

Most nights we were too tired to go out so we played table football in the bar. One day the table was out of order, and the man on reception, actually managed to fix it with a knife from the kitchen. Top Man
Over all we had a great time at the hotel, the ski school great, the snow was great and the resort has lots of slopes from beginners to advanced.
