Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel with its great amenities and comfortable atmosphere. The heated bathroom floors were a nice touch, making my time there feel cozy after a long day on the slopes. However, the location isn’t exactly in the center of Lillehammer, which was a bit strange. Overall, I really appreciated the friendly staff and the breakfast, but I did wish there were more dining options available in the evening.
The hotel has an excellent location near the Olympic ski jump, which was perfect for our skiing trip. The rooms were spacious and family-friendly, providing a comfortable stay for all six of us. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were a couple of minor hiccups. Overall, it's great for families visiting Lillehammer, but it’s not right in the city center, which might be a drawback for some.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, right next to the cross-country slopes and close to downtown Lillehammer. The rooms were spacious, making them ideal for our family getaway. However, I found the lack of privacy in my ground-floor room a bit disconcerting, and while the dining options were good, I wish they offered evening meals. Overall, it’s great value for money!
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which is situated in a fantastic location that made it easy for us to see the Northern Lights right before bed. The rooms were spacious but could have used a bit more furniture. While the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful with recommendations for trails, the initial reception wasn’t as welcoming. Overall, it was a good value for money, especially considering the proximity to various activities, but the lack of dining options on-site was a slight drawback.

The staff was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout my stay. Its location is a big plus, especially for those visiting the Olympic ski jump area, though getting there with luggage can be a little challenging. While dining options were decent, there could definitely be more variety. Overall, it provides great value for small groups but might need some improvements in dining and accessibility.
The hotel was just perfect for our family getaway. The rooms were small but very cozy, with underfloor heating in the bathroom and a fantastic shower. The staff truly went above and beyond with their friendliness and help. Plus, the location was great, being close to the city center and near winter sports facilities. However, breakfast could have been warmer as it was cold when we arrived, which was a bit disappointing.
The hotel had a very family-friendly atmosphere with spacious rooms that worked well for us, especially with children. However, the furniture felt a bit tired, which was a downside. The staff went above and beyond to help us, making our stay pleasant. The location is fantastic for ski enthusiasts, with easy access to trails, but it’s a bit of a haul with luggage from the train station.
