Easy stay for the white water rafting

Reviewed By LWood2277

We stayed here because the white water rafting trip leaves from there and it was convenient. It's grounds are pretty but the rooms are kind of like dorm rooms. Not a big deal. They're clean. The guy running the place was very nice as well.

Family ran

Reviewed By Lyndsey R

We arrived for check in just before 8pm after a long day of driving, and even though the kitchen closed at 8 they waited for us to unload the car and then served us dinner, which was really very much appreciated. The cabin was nice and spacious, there's no tv or wifi within the cabin which wasn't important for us but I'm sure it would be for some. I was a little disappointed that there was a road between the cabin and the lake; "lake view" created something in my mind, but the road isn't busy and is well covered by trees so I bearly actually noticed it during the 4 night stay. Super helpful family ran business in a nice location, with comfortable accommodation, would recommend :)

Dale-Gudbrands Gard

Nice quiet hotel

Reviewed By haakonks

Stayed here for a night on the way from Trondheim to Oslo. The hotel is at a historic farm in Gudbrandsdalen. Its a small family run place, with only a few room. Our room had the amenities you would expect, was spacious and had a nice view. An excellent breakfast was included with the room, and the hotel also offers dinner in the afternoon, which was very good. Had an excellent stay here, much more personal than a big chain-hotel. A lot of old Norwegian history around the hotel if you want to explore.

Rondane Haukliseter Fjellhotell

An attractive and modern mountain hotel in a magnificent setting. The hotel is situated 1000 meters above sea level terrain at the beginning of Rondane National Park, 120 km north of Lillehammer and 8 km from the E6. The location is stunning with panoramic views and surrounding mountains. Access by car or train to Otta and from there by bus.

The perfect place to relax.

Reviewed By Neil03091947

Looking for a place to relax for the Autumn, I came across the hotel, via Trip Advisor, and I must state that the description of the hotel needs to be upgraded - It was fantastic - in all ways. The service was excellent provided by Tore & his team, even clearing the snow, by hand, to our cottage in the morning before breakfast. When one defines breakfast, on our first morning, we were only two quests staying, BUT, we had the perfect selection - just for us ! Evening meal was also an experience, very traditional Norwegian food, and plenty of it. Arriving for an Autumn break, within 2 hours we realised we were having a WINTER break !?! But, this was well solved by the management. For me the Cottage - Nystugu, has great views, and a perfect solution. Thanks again for a fantastic stay, We will be back.

Nice location, but terrible service and cleanliness

Reviewed By Simon J

We had booked a weekend stay for a larger group. The owners clearly did not have an overview of our booking. Many different prices and a lot of mistakes done regarding bed linen, apartments and rooms. The schedule for our weekend main meal was changed to an earlier hour, due to the fact that the owners had double booked for two large parties at the same night. This resulted in a lack of staff for our three course dinner highlight - which was not a highlight at all. The staff was clearly not quialified, they did not know the serving concept and were not co-ordinated at all. Drinks were served 25 minutes after the first course, and all parts of the group had to order seperately. The main course was served before everyone had finished their first course. The dessert was served when half the group was still eating their main meal! The staff was uninformed, inexperienced and not service minded - poking several guests asking if they were finished with their meal. The service personell did not speak the local language at all, a big drawback when several of the guests were elderly and that the hotel and location brags of being a local and tradional destination. In addition, when the owners were contacted in order to better the situation, the owner blamed our group and the organization of the event, even though they were the ones responsible. Truly a fiasco event. The food was nice, especially the main course, but the first course was at a minimum and the whole three course menu was served within an hour. Not acceptable! The two-night stay was not nice - very expensive and not worth the trip unless you truly love the mountains. Hopefully, the owners will step up their game, get a grip of the organization structure and reduce the prices. This was not a success.

Gamlestolen Fjellstue

worst hot chocolate and waffle I ever had

Reviewed By Q4200JBchristianp

Went by for waffle and hot chocolate and paid 80 NOK. The chocolate was very watery and probably a poorly mixed instant powder chocolate. The waffle was very dry and just tasted weird. Not worth it guys. (didn't stay there, only went for lunch)
