Glassbar 1.850

Glassbar 1.850 is the relaxed lobby bar and dining room at Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa in Soldeu, Andorra. Its name refers to the hotel’s high-mountain setting at about 1,850 metres, and the venue gives visitors a place to pause for a drink, cocktail or light meal without committing to one of the resort’s formal restaurants. The atmosphere is modern and polished, but the format is flexible: guests can stop in after skiing, meet before dinner or settle in for a casual lunch.

The current hotel description presents a menu that draws on the creative cooking of the resort’s more formal restaurants, including Japanese-inspired dishes and Andorran haute-cuisine references. This means Glassbar is more than a drinks counter, while still keeping the approach informal. The hotel describes its drinks selection as broad, with cocktails and wines among the main reasons to visit. A current listing also highlights gin and tonics prepared with specialist gins and a choice of tonic waters. Specific menus can change with season and stock, so check the current menu or ask the team before visiting for a particular dish or bottle.

Glassbar can work at different points in the day. The drinks service begins in the morning, while the kitchen opens at noon, making the bar suitable for a late breakfast drink, an afternoon pause or a light lunch. Its evening closing is later than the kitchen close, so visitors who arrive near 23:00 should plan on drinks rather than a full meal. This distinction is especially useful for skiers whose schedules depend on lift hours or for travellers arriving in Soldeu after a drive through the mountain roads.

The setting is inside the Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa, a luxury resort close to the Grandvalira ski area. This places Glassbar within the resort’s indoor hospitality space rather than on an outdoor terrace or piste-side hut. It is convenient for hotel guests and also a possible stop for other visitors, but entry to the bar should not be confused with access to the hotel’s spa, pools or guest-only facilities. Those services have their own rules and may require a booking or separate payment. If you are not staying at the hotel and plan to visit during a busy service period, contact the hotel to confirm seating and access.

Soldeu is a compact mountain village and one of the main bases for Grandvalira. In winter, the surrounding slopes bring a pronounced ski-resort rhythm to the day; in warmer months, the same parish becomes a base for walking and mountain excursions. Glassbar’s indoor setting makes it less dependent on terrace weather than an outdoor bar, though the resort’s restaurant calendar can still vary by season. Check the hotel’s current restaurant information before making a special trip outside the main winter or summer periods.

The hotel currently lists drinks service every day from 09:00 to 24:00 and the kitchen from 12:00 to 23:00. These are the clearest branch-specific hours found and should be used in preference to older seasonal articles that give different opening times. The schedule does not guarantee that every menu item is available throughout the day. For a meal close to kitchen closing, confirm the last order time; for a late cocktail, the drinks schedule is the relevant one. The hotel lists +376 870 670 and +376 355 932 for information and reservations, with concierge@sporthotels.ad as an email contact.

Glassbar is a commercial hotel venue with no general admission ticket. Prices are expected to reflect its luxury-resort context, but current branch-specific pricing should be checked on the live menu rather than inferred from the hotel’s category. Table service, exact dress expectations, allergen controls and access details were not fully specified in the material reviewed. Visitors with dietary needs should ask staff about ingredients and preparation. If you are visiting as a non-resident, confirm whether tables are available to outside guests for the time you want, especially during peak ski weeks.

For a simple visit, go to the Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa on Carretera General 2 in Soldeu and follow signs to the lobby bar. Choose Glassbar 1.850 specifically, as the resort operates several distinct dining venues with different formats and hours. Plan food orders before 23:00 and use the later period for drinks. With a broad cocktail and wine offer, Japanese-influenced and Andorran-inspired light dishes, and an indoor mountain-resort setting, Glassbar is a convenient meeting point for visitors who want an unhurried bar experience in the heart of Soldeu.

Because the venue is part of a multi-restaurant resort, verify that the day’s menu and service are for Glassbar rather than one of the separate restaurants. The hotel’s contact desk can clarify outside-guest availability, reservations and current menus. That small check is worthwhile if you are planning around a special diet or want to arrive with a larger party. The main public approach is from the CG-2 through Soldeu; allow extra time in winter when traffic and hotel arrivals can coincide.
