Luxury holidays in Andorra la Vella

Resting 1,023-metres above sea level, in the Pyrenees, Andorra la Vella is its namesake country’s capital. A yellow-tinted glow blankets the city once night falls, but during the day a livelier scene is filled with well-heeled shoppers in search of duty-free finds and seasoned relaxers, seeking solace at the city’s legendary 18-floor spa. And when you want to explore beyond the city limits, Andorra’s bucolic hiking trails and winter pistes are in easy reach.

When to go

Spring is best for those hoping to hike, or wander the city’s streets, when temperatures hit pleasant highs of 20°C. If you’re here for the snow, Andorra’s ski season runs from December to March.

Getting there

  • Planes

    International flights will arrive into Barcelona, Girona or Perpignan, which are all a little less than three hours away by car. There’s a small, domestic airport (Andorra-La Seu d’Urgell) for arrivals from Spain that’s around a 30-minute drive from the capital.

  • Automobiles

    The city has a reliable bus service that can whiz you around its streets; if you’re planning on exploring further afield, a car will serve you well. Roads can be narrow and mountainous, but you can get around Andorra in less than an hour, so even the most restless of drivers should feel at ease.
