Hotel Santa Cristina Petit Spa

Between Canfranc and the pistes

The Santa Cristina is a three-star mountain hotel on the N-330a road, at kilometre 669, at about 1,300 metres, between Canfranc Estación and Candanchú. The building went up in the late nineteenth century as a barracks of the Cuerpo de Carabineros, who guarded the Somport border. It has been a hotel since 1991, and in 2006 a refurbishment by architect Ignacio Arzubialde added the petit spa, the El Boj restaurant and the viewpoint terrace.
