A relaxed and very friendly hotel that makes for a good base from which to explore Pas. It's a simple yet comfortable place to stay, and convenient too as it sits at the foot of the village near the shopping area and resort leisure centre with its large indoor pool. It's only 450m from three different lifts and the centre of this very lively resort.

It's easy to unwind here. The hotel bar has a really nice vibe after the lifts close, perfect for catching up on your day's exploits. There's a sauna and hot tub to help ease any aches, and it's free to use too. There's also free Wi-Fi throughout to keep friends and family back home jealous!

About the resort

Legendary is the word to describe the Pas de la Casa. On the mountain you have the Grandvalira as your playground; 210km of wide-open, cruisy slopes with the added bonus of dedicated beginner areas, parks for freestyle and really accessible yet challenging off-piste. And at 2100m the snow is pretty reliable too.

Off the mountain it has the party hard reputation for a reason. The main strip is full of bars all with enthusiastic signs tempting you inside. The range of nightlife is completely varied so it is possible to have an all-nighter or simply a nice relaxed and chilled out evening.

Food and drink

Hot and cold buffets make up the half-board option here. Breakfast offers everything you could need for a day on the mountain and the evening meal is also a buffet with some great choices to keep everyone happy. Drinks are included with your Christmas and New Year Gala dinners

Rooms

A good sized hotel with 53 bedrooms. Each has a flat-screen satellite TV and ensuite bathroom with hairdryer, shower and wc. The rooms have plenty of light and most have great views out to the resort and slopes.
