Hi,
Figured out ourselves. :)
First of all - very good plan to go there, highly recommended, fantastic place.
During the event, the main place (podium, finish of DH track, trial track, etc) was in La Massana.
We finally stayed in Arinsal, Hotel Comapedrosa. There was a lift just next to hotel going up to the same ski/bike area, but didn't operate. I don't know if it was due to the event, or it doesn't operate during summer at all.
So in the morning we rolled down on bike to La Massana, took the main cabin lift (shared one with Greg Minnaar once :)), then in the evening took the bus to go back to Arinsal. We could even bring the bikes on board.
In our hotel there were some riders staying as well, they did the same, so it's not a big deal - though the weather is a factor.
Arinsal is a small place but just a few minutes walk from the hotel there's a very good burger/steak house with some kind of night life.
But if you find a good place, stay in La Massana, then you are always only a few steps away from the event.
Anyway, there are no distances, but there's elevation up and down, of course. :)
Wherever you stay, you will enjoy it for sure. Say 'hello' to the place for me - a must go back once!
Cheers,
J.
