Overview
The KY Mountain Hostel is a no-fuss base for your Arinsal ski trip. It’s a few minutes' walk from the base gondola, so you can hit the Pal-Arinsal pistes pronto. After a day on the snow, you can join the buzz in the hostel's shared spaces. Take your pick from the bar and games room with pool, table football and darts. Or head to the top floor, where there’s a spacious TV room filled with comfy seats – the perfect spot to watch the big game.
You’ll get a private room with its own ensuite bathroom, so you’ve got your own space when it’s time to turn in for the day. As for looks, the vibe is modern industrial chic – think exposed pipework and a pared-back colour scheme of grey, white and black.
Start your ski day with the hot and cold buffet breakfast at the AKY Restaurant – it's all part of your stay. If you're still around at lunch or dinner, you can pay extra and tuck into something off the a la carte menu. Sticking to a budget? There's a shared kitchen where you can whip up your own meals with supplies from the nearby supermarket, a couple of minutes’ walk away.

About Arinsal
Arinsal definitely attracts a younger crowd, who generally take advantage of cheap alcohol and a large selection of bars and clubs, many of which at the foot of the slopes.
It has an excellent ski school, those looking to learn will find Arinsal absolutely ideal. Forming part of the Vallnord ski area (about 60kms of pistes), there is access to other sectors, Arcalis and Pal. As a beginner, you’ll spend the first couple of days learning the basics on the lower parts of the Arinsal sector, while intermediates and progressing beginners can venture over to Pal in the next valley over, linked via cable car. There you’ll find a selection of wide, tree-lined runs to test your ski skills. Arcalis is accessed by a bus but worth it for the intermediates in the group.
Overall, Arinsal ideally suits beginners and intermediates and those looking for lively evenings. There is good childcare so families are welcome. As the lifts go up to nearly 2600m, the snow is reliable as well.
