Reviews for Hotel Univers

Review 1:Bed could have been more comfortable - it wasn't bad, but not totally comfortable.

Review 2:Friendly, accommodating staff, good breakfast buffet, great setting next to a stream.

Review 3:Not very good quality of cleaning. Their were hairs in bathroom from previous staying. Once had an excident with dinner -salad was not fresh (it was from those which were staying as showdishes and I was last who came for dinner).

Review 4:Very nice location, not more then 2-5 min to Funibus stop, near the river, not central street. Rather good dinners and hospitable personal. Very calm hotel, small single rooms.

Review 5:Everything was perfect. Good food, perfect location, cosy atmosphere, very nice and friendly staff. Warm, not so noisy comparing to others. We spent a really good time!

Review 6:liked everything

Review 7:Hotel is centrally located. Parking on site. Well informed staff who could answer all our questions about Encamp, and Andorra in general. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Good value.

Review 8:A little difficult to find but all you have to do in the proximity is do as I did and roll down your window to ask directions, it worked for me.parking is available outside the hotel but limited, we managed to find a parking space but watch out for gaps that you think a car can't park because the locals can park there cars and leave an inch back and front and you wonder how many times your car has been hit in the process.

Review 9:The location is superb and our room was overlooking a mountain stream/river which was lovely to listen to when we left our windows open over night. Staff very welcoming and printed a menu in English for us so we could eat in the restaurant.seemed like a family run business with the decor maybe looking a little tired in comparison to modern hotels but to tell you the truth that was the charm of the hotel. We would not hesitate to stay there again and would recommend it as a great stop on the way to Spain.

Review 10:Room unexciting and not very soundproof. Musty smell in the rather bouncy lift.

Review 11:The evening meal didn't look at all prepossessing but it was delicious - cold vichyssoise (just described as leak soup), calamari with wonderfully tasty vegetables/pork slices in a sauce with creamed potatoes. Can't remember the desserts!

Review 12:Cozy, welcoming family-run hotel, the owners could give valuable advice of the best walking routes, clean, quiet, well situated.

Review 13:Nothing !

Review 14:Fantastic welcome and helpful family run hotel

Review 15:Friendly staff, cheap meals and great overall price

Review 16:Great location simple clean and comfortable

Review 17:Slow access to the ski locker in the basement (1 lift / no stairs)

Review 18:Hotel car park, location, food, good service during meals

Review 19:Rooms are too small

Review 20:The typical problem for the most of hotels: bad sound isolation. So, you can be pretty involved in your neighbor's life.

Review 21:Great location, 10 min foot to funicamp, 3 min to bus stop. Clean rooms full of light. Good price for b&b

Review 22:Breakfast could be more diverse.

Review 23:Nice, clean, near (about 5 minutes) of Funicamp. Wi-Fi worked very well. Free parking lots for about 10 autos (about 50 meters from hotel).

Review 24:Unfortuatley the snow was melting in the mountains, this made the river at the front of the hotel run very fast and very noisy, but the double glazing did hold back most noise , but you could not sit outside and relax

Review 25:It was centralley located clean and comfortable, the lady that greeted us spoke reasonably good english

Review 26:We got a little lost trying to find the hotel when it really should havebeen easy. A drawing on the page on booking.com when reservation is madeshowing how to find the hotel once you're in the village would bereally helpful.

Review 27:Location in the heart of the village was great although at first alittle difficult to find. It is just off the main road where the schooland the river are. Once you find it you realize that it is a greatlocation, quiet, yet centrally located in pretty surroundings. It isjust a few steps and you're in the village with shopping andrestaurants. Our room had a view onto the mountain and the river. Therewas a balcony. Nice room although not big and bathroom was O.K. too.Everything was nice and clean. Staff very nice. Speak Catalan orSpanish, a little English.

Review 28:The food in the restaurant is appalling. I was ravenous when I arrived, which was a good job, as I would have eaten nothing on offer. I also didn't like being held to a time to go to bed. I had to be in by 10.30, which meant I missed the second half of the Barcelona match in the local bar..... not too much to ask is it?

Review 29:Family run hotel in the true sense of the word, everyone seems to get 'stuck in'. All very friendly and a very relaxed atmosphere.

Review 30:Racking my brains I really can't think of anything.

Review 31:This was our first visit to Andorra and Encamp is a small, sleepy community especially in the summer. This suited us better than the more touristy parts of the country such as Andorra La Vella. The hotel is quiet, comfortable, clean, well priced, free outside parking, convenient for buses to other parts of the country and walks to suit all abilities close by. We opted for bed and breakfast because we wanted flexibility but half or full board is available. We ate lunch at the hotel twice and the food is good and well presented. The proprieter and all of the staff are kind, attentive and above all eager to please. They speak no English (why should they?) so it does help if one speaks a little Spanish or Catalan but I can't see this presenting a problem as they are so helpful. We were planning to stay 5 nights before driving on to UK. Unfortunately our car broke down and we were obliged to make other arrangements. The proprietor and his wife eased us through the arrangement of buses and flights from Barcelona and even to ferried us around town in their private vehicle. When we return to pick up our car in September there are no prizes for guessing where we'll be staying.

Review 32:It is not their fault that global warming makes it necessary to installair conditioning. But there was no inconvience in sleeping with thewindow to the veranda open - no insects!!

Review 33:Excellent, friendly staff. Free parking. Quiet location. Comfortablebeds. Veranda. All that is needed for a pleasant holiday.Foi bom falar com o criado da mesa e a camaria que são Portugueses.

Review 34:Very good value for money. Clean hotel with friendly staff. We had the half-board package and for the price the evening meals were excellent with a decent choice every evening.

Review 35:Breakfast meal selection was a bit limited but still OK according to pricing. Hotel staff language skills in English were limited but service attitude was excellent.

Review 36:Very comfortable atmosphere, small and cosy hotel. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Room was clean every day. Dinner with local menu was good value for money.

Review 37:We visited Andorra, and the place Encamp was a very good place to livein because the city was not so big. We stayed only one night and drivedthrough the country. We liked the small hotel. With balcony. Very goodservice, ok room, very clean. The breakfast was simple, but ok. LIttlehard to find, We can recommand this hotel.

Review 38:Only one cereal offered at breakfast and only hard-boiled eggs for thosewanting a full cooked breakfast. Bacon too fatty for my taste but I justhelped myself to ham instead. Only white bread for toasting but slicedbagette, rusks, and excellent coissant available (pastries also forthose wanting them), Table d'Hol evening meal menu limited to choice oftwo main courses. Food good (very good for the money - 12 euros forthree courses) but hot food served on cold plates (this seems to be anAndorran "thing").

Review 39:Hotel Univers offers excellent value for money particularly for thoseusing a car for transport because it has a car park for which no chargeis made (not always the case in Andorra). The Hotel is small/mediumsized and family run. The staff are helpful and friendly. Ski passes forGrandvalera (but not ValNord) can be issued by the Hotel and added tothe bill. Bedrooms for couples are of moderate size but not "poky". En-suite bathroom was fully tiled and very clean. Breakfast is buffet stylewith adequate choice for most people (see comments below). Eveningdinner is fully served and food nicely presented. Very drinkable housewine for 5.5 euros a bottle. Large lounge on 1st Floor. We have basedour last two Skiing Holidays on the Hotel Univers and would thoroughlyrecommend it to anyone with their own transport (10/15 minute drive tolarge free car park at El Tarter main lift : longer drive to Pal,Arinsal or Arcalis). I can make no comment about suitability orunsuitability for those without their own transport other than need tocheck what transport arrangements are available or can be made.
