Hotel Princesa Parc Excellence is the more luxurious side of the Princesa Parc complex in Arinsal, and it feels very much set up for guests who want a ski holiday with a bit more comfort and style built in. It sits around 250 metres from the Arinsal gondola, so getting onto the mountain is still nice and easy, but the hotel itself is much more about indulgent downtime once the ski day is done. The atmosphere is calmer and more refined than a standard village ski hotel, which makes it a strong choice for couples and anyone wanting a more grown-up feel to their stay.

The rooms are a big part of the appeal here. Alongside Premium Double and Triple rooms, there are larger suite options too, so the hotel works well whether you are after a smart room for two or something more spacious. The overall feel is polished and comfortable, with details such as bathrobes, slippers, minibar, tea and coffee facilities and a more premium finish throughout.

Food adds another layer to the stay as well. The Louis XV restaurant gives the hotel a more elegant dining option than a standard ski-hotel setup, which suits the overall feel of the property and helps make staying in for dinner feel like part of the holiday rather than just the easy option.

Why guests like it:

Guests like Hotel Princesa Parc Excellence because it gives them the convenience of Arinsal with a more exclusive and comfortable feel than most ski bases in the village. You are still close to the gondola, but the bigger draw is the quieter atmosphere, the smarter rooms and the more indulgent side of the hotel once skiing is over. It is especially well suited to couples and guests who want their hotel to feel like part of the treat, not just somewhere to sleep.

Good to know:

The wellness area is part of the wider Princesa Parc complex and is chargeable locally, so it is worth factoring that in if spa time matters to you. Room type is worth checking too, as the newer Premium Rooms have the most updated feel, while the larger suites are the better choice if you want extra space.
