Bellissimo albergo a 20 km da Lillehammer
Pros:

Struttura che rispecchia le caratteristiche di un albergo di montagna. Camera e bagno spaziosi. Sicuramente è ancora più bella nel periodo invernale. Noi non lo abbia provato ma è dotata di un ottimo ristorante.

Cons:

La colazione è poco internazionale, con abbondanza di cibo salato e pochi dolci.

Vi har bodd der flere ganger og liker oss godt!
Pros:

Nydelig rent rom, vestbygget, fantastisk utsikt!! God kaffe. Herlig lounge ved inngangen. Behjelpelig personale. Behagelige kelnere i restauranten. God middag og med vin som passet, god frokost.

Cons:

Dårlige puter i sengen, der var pynteputer, men en sover ikke med dem. De var av dårlig kvalitet og burde vært to stykker. Savner badstu og litt SPA, som ikke trenger å være så avansert. Vet det er en stor investering, men hadde gjort oppholdet enda bedre.
