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.

Dated (a bit tired), but clean and comfortable.

I have stayed here before. It’s really close and convenient for the station. It’s nice not to be in a big chain. The hotel is rather dated and tired, but the beds are comfortable, and it’s really clean. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is good. As I said, I’ve stated before and would definitely stay again.

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.

Et helt OK hotell som er svært sentrumsnært. Overraskende rolig til å være såpass sentralt. Enkel innsjekk og utsjekk. Fin frokost med godt utvalg, men synes det er litt rart å ikke ha G35-brunost på frokosten i Lillehammer! Rommet var rent og stort. Litt hardere seng enn hva vi er vant med fra hotell. Greit bad. Service'n er grei, men samtidig litt under hva vi forventer - synes det er hyggelig med frokostpersonale som sier "god morgen" eller går rundt med kaffekanna på morningen. Servicen i resepsjonen er også OK, litt under hva vi forventer i forhold til pris.
