Perfect location, needs new carpet!

This historic hotel is rundown but for skiers, the location by the bus station, grocery store and ski shop makes for easy travel. Breakfast is good and beds are super comfortable but the carpeting is about 10 years overdue to be replaced!

Property was under construction during our stay. Didn't really affect us much. We had to walk down the street for our breakfast. The breakfast was AMAZING!! So many gluten free and vegan options. Missing the waffles already. The staff were super friendly.

Great location and the (typically small Norwegian) rooms were comfortable and cozy. A lot of painting and decorating in the common areas so breakfast served at a nearby hotel. All good, price was right.

It’s located in a centralized location near the pedestrian street with many shops and restaurants. Free parking is provided. The room is the tiniest we’ve encountered on our more than 2 week visit in Norway, therefore, difficult in which to maneuver. It was also very warm with the sun shining brightly inside it. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was very good with a variety of choices. I would stay here again.

The staff was great, breakfast was very good, and the aesthetic of the building was very nice. The room however was very small and did not have any sort of amenities like a refrigerator or electric kettle. Also found a used tobacco pouch under our bed.

Absolutely amazing hotel.

What an amazing hotel all round, staff, cleanliness, location. Perfect for walking the many trails and Olympic sites, situated in the heart of town with free parking and a plentiful hot and cold breakfast it would be difficult to find a better hotel. We had a huge superior double room on the 3rd floor with a little balcony with a view, for a 2+ night stay this was perfect. There’s a tin bath in the large bathroom and the shower had great pressure and very hot water. one of the best hotels of our trip.
