The hotel was great and loved the location near the ski jumps and soccer fields. It very much captured the Olympic vibe. Close to walking trails and to walk to town. The included breakfast was very good. It had a very nice lounge so you could relax outside your room. The shower, as in most of Norway, was small and leaked a bit.

Great facade but room in terrible condition

Beautiful view and great are for hiking. Free parking and good breakfast! The room smelled of smoke and the bathroom of mold. Common area in great shape. Reconditioning long overdue for the room.

During our stay, we loved the property and Lillehammer so much that we extended and stayed two days rather than one. Your front desk staff was special - both Metta and Patricia went above and beyond to help us get transportation, give advice on restaurants, and make sure we had everything we needed. They were friendly and accommodating. We also loved the location as being right in the heart of the Olympic village.

Single room is very small. Olympic village is nice but not much to do. Nice walk to museum area. Must walk uphill from town center to get here which I did not expect.
