The Soldeu resort presents its ‘Sabores de Casa’ experiences at Sol i Neu, and ‘Paseo por Incles’, with dining at Ibaya, both of which place the local region centre stage.
Andorra experiences autumn as a season of transition. Between the hustle and bustle of summer and the arrival of snow, the Principality’s valleys regain a tranquillity that makes this season one of the most magical times of the year. The Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa makes a very special contribution to this with its exceptional culinary offering, which focuses on the very best the region has to offer: its local produce and its landscape. The result puts the destination on the map as one of the season’s unmissable gastronomic events.
This autumn, the Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa presents an invitation to discover Andorra through its cuisine and landscape. The resort has put together a series of experiences combining accommodation, mountain cuisine and contact with the natural surroundings. The programme centres on two key names in its culinary offering – Sol i Neu and Ibaya – and on two locations which, at this time of year, are at their very best: the Soldeu area itself and the Incles Valley.
The first of the experiences offered by Sport Hotels Resort & Spa is called ‘Sabores de Casa’ (Flavours of Home) and takes place at its Sol i Neu restaurant. Recommended by the Michelin Guide and boasting one of the Principality’s most sought-after terraces, with views of the mountain peaks, Sol i Neu offers cuisine that translates the alpine landscape into dishes crafted from mountain produce. The experience combines a stay at the hotel with a gastronomic offering at the restaurant, so that cuisine, scenery and relaxation all take centre stage. For guests always seeking something more, the experience offers a way to savour the Andorran autumn from the dining table, at the leisurely pace dictated by the mountains in the off-season.
The second offering, “A Walk through Incles”, adds the discovery of the region to the mix. The experience invites you to explore one of Andorra’s most iconic natural sites, which is particularly enchanting during the autumn months, when the forest changes colour and the valley lies quiet and secluded. Following the walk through Incles, the experience continues at Ibaya, the Principality’s only Michelin-starred restaurant. Under the culinary direction of Francis Paniego and Jordi Grau, Ibaya offers a menu inspired by the mountain landscape, reinterpreted through a contemporary, haute cuisine lens. The combination of the valley and the Michelin star makes this the most comprehensive experience of the season, bringing together nature, local culture and culinary excellence in a single day.
Through both these initiatives, Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa positions itself as the gateway to discovering Andorra. At a time when mountain travellers are increasingly seeking experiences linked to the local area and cuisine, the resort offers the very best of Andorra this season: scenery, tranquillity and mountain cuisine with its own distinct identity. Sol i Neu’s Michelin recommendation and Ibaya’s Michelin star are a testament to an outstanding offering capable of transforming a stay into a truly meaningful experience.
Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa thus stands out as the perfect starting point for discovering the Principality at one of its most serene times, when Andorra becomes a first-class gastronomic destination. The Andorran resort brings to the table the very essence of the high mountains, where the local landscape and produce engage in a dialogue on equal terms with haute cuisine.
