Deborah Spain

Stuff that what makes this place unique!!! Best service, delicious food and cozy atmosphere!!! Love this place !!!

Alexey Spain

The hotel delivered the expected experience, what made the experience "special" was the staff. Everyone was extremely helpful and kind. It was the first time on the snow for our 6yo daughter and she absolutely loved it and the hotel staff made it unforgettable. A special thanks to the Generala Manager that made the "extra step" every day.

Andrea Singapore

Every single aspect of our stay was fabulous. So much so we decided to extend our break and were fortunate to be able to keep our wonderful room. A great big thank you to the whole El Lodge team and see you again next season.

Vince Spain

El Lodge is a treat. For us an expensive treat but, worth every cent (penny!). The decor throughout is beautiful and is snug, cosy, opulent and warm in its ski lodge style. The beds are so comfortable and little touches like room sleep humidifiers are great (avoids dry night throats at altitude) If you get fed up with the private balcony hot tub in your room then there’s the most stunning indoor and outdoor pools, tubs and spa. Food is excellent and there’s a huge list of wines from €15 to several thousand a bottle. The ‘locker’ room is more luxuriant and tasteful than my living room! Ski in (to a great sun terrace) ski out down to the gondoliers. The icing on the cake though is the staff and their wonderful service. It’s impossible not to feel valued and special.
