The (even more) premium Andorra: where the most gourmets stay

Snow, shopping – Christmas or not – and the whirlwind of a small country given to those who visit it, whether it is their first time or not. With the arrival of the cold, Andorra shines as a destination for those who do not want to miss anything, although it also fulfills another, literally and metaphorically, higher objective. Immersed in the wheel of the course, of work, of duty, there is a place in which to forget what is important, what is urgent, what is necessary is religion and requirement.

Andorra is that corner that feels close when it is far away, but where one feels far from everything that is normally close: the common, the trivial, the usual. The Principality stands between mountains as a temple to cultivate the body, mind and palate. In which to be devoted to the most tempting here and now. Those who profess this faith do not fail. The possibility of visiting Andorra is one of the must-dos of the season that is hard to give up. In fact, it is estimated that 8.8 million visitors are unwilling to do so.

Despite the overwhelming figure, Andorra protects its charms well and does not sell them to the first bidder either. On the contrary. The possibility of changing the air – of breathing, in fact, one of the purest in the world –, of entering into the Romanesque, of getting to know its lakes and its towns, completes an offer that is difficult to compare, breaking the corset of destiny (only ) of snow. Years ago, Andorra came out of that monochrome closet, becoming an extremely versatile and timeless destination, which combines – as its shop windows show – with everything.

Yes, its more than 300 kilometers of slopes make “the country of the Pyrenees” its most faithful and emblematic nickname, but it fulfills its mission so well of satisfying the visitor, whatever they are looking for in its little more than 400 square kilometers. , which asserts its qualities beyond what winter dictates. Not in vain, at the gates of Christmas we find ourselves, perhaps, in its best days. Those in which Andorra invites us to escape and take refuge in postcards of fire and snow.

It is difficult to resist, especially if in our hearts we cannot imagine greater pleasure than the crackling of a cozy fireplace making our cheeks blush after a day of strong emotions. The country of the Pyrenees knows its attributes well and does not skimp on luxuries to please the most demanding, drawing new levels of comfort in the Plaza Hotels

It doesn't matter what, but how. It doesn't matter if what we want is to spend quality time with the family, enjoy an unforgettable dinner or satisfy our senses with a unique health and beauty treatment. It is no coincidence that Dream More is the motto that the chain embraces. A more not understood as volume, but as details that mark the difference between the common and the exclusive. A full stop that encapsulates the character of its hotels, dedicated to the cause in the services and experiences it offers to its guests.

The brand's flagship is the Grand Plaza Hotel

If we leave behind the iconic Meritxell Avenue, the commercial artery of the capital, we arrive at the Suites Plaza Hotel

Who said like at home? Better than at home. Like in the Ski Plaza, in the heart of Canillo, in front of the Palau de Gel and at the foot of the Grandvalira slopes. The perfect option for those who want to jump directly from the snow to its Pyrene Spa, its La Fonclette restaurant, specializing in fondues and raclettes, or its charming lobby bar with fireplace, from where you can enjoy the best of a hotel at the foot of the slopes without giving up to exclusivity and comfort.
