    Very odd room outline with a tiny and cold bathroom and a huge "corridor like" room between bathroom and bed. In general, the room was freezing at night even though we turned on the heater. Also, the bathroom was rather dirty when we checked in. On top of that, you can see that the hotel needs a renovation. Food is alright.

    Big hotel with spa and pool plus bowling alley. Good location.

    it is so dated. it felt like a trip to the 1970s and desperately need modernising. however it was clean, warm and welcoming for that is just personal choice. the carpets feel very musty and after the scandi chic everywhere felt very strange.

    fabulous location for an overnight on the Oslo to Bergen train trip

    We had higher expectations for the spa, the spa area was more like some different swimmingpools and sauna, not the oasis we were kind of expecting. But it was still nice and relaxing.

    Both the dinner and the breakfast was amazing! The room was cozy and nice. It was great with the activites at the hotel. like shuffleboard. bowling and a spa area.

    For some reason the TV and lamp were not plucked in. It took me a while to figure out that the socket for the TV was actually in the upper corner of the room. The changing room to the pool was a little bit dirty and there were no more towels left. Luckily I had brought my own with me.

    I liked the pool and made immediately use of it once I had checked in. The breakfast was nice and the location was perfect as it was in walking distance to the train station

    Unfortunately the pool and spa were closed where closed for the dates we booked. We did not know that until we got there. I would definitely do some outside research when you book to see what is available for the dates you are reserving. We had other plans in the area but I would have been disappointed if Dr. Holms was our main event. The bowling was only open on weekends or Thursday - Saturday, I think. And the restaurants in the area had not great hours for us. The town was kind of between seasons. The staff that checked me in was stand off-ish and I felt like I was having to ask a lot of questions without being offered much in return. But later I had really good staff encounters. Our bathroom light flickered on and off the whole time - I should have mentioned it but I figured the staff knew because cleaners came through and update our bathroom with towels.

    The breakfast was great at the hotel. The overall space is quite a complex and has a lot of character. Very close to the train station. Comfortable bed.

    Felt the hotel was a bit understaffed mid week. The pool locker rooms were disgustingly dirty. There should have been staff to clean them. Plus the hot in was shockingly small and not that warm.

    Breakfast was very good and staff did an amazing job restocking food and cleaning.

    Preferably there should be more elevators at the hotel. The pool/spa opening hrs should be longer, 2100 is too early for a resort like this. The selection at breakfast should be better, and the personnel need to be quicker on refilling different items. There're not enough parking spaces.

    In general the location, and easy access to most facilities.

    The cleaning was not good. All the glasses in our room was dirty that we had to wash ourselves. The toilet wasn't cleaned throughly. The wellness center was closed at 15 on sunday and all day on monday. Turkish bath and outdoor jakuzi were also closed. I expected a kettle and/or coffee machine in the room with some tea and/or instant coffee in a 4 star hotel.

    The hotel is very close to the train station. Indoors is very authentic with all old photos and typical Norwegian decorations. Staff was friendly and smiling. Room was spacious.

    Great family holiday with one major complaint

    • Stayed 5 nights

    Room was very small and bathroom facilities quite outdated, although everything worked OK. Our room was directly over the bar which was Ok for the majority of the stay as the hotel was relativly empty and quiet. However on the final night of our stay we were kept awake until after 1am because the hotel had arranged for a local band to play. When we complained we were told that we should have requested a room away from the bar but as we had no advance warning of the proposed entrtainment we think this was an inadequate response and felt it was poor organization on behalf of the hotel.

    Greta location at the bottom of the ski slopes and only five mins. walk to shops and train station. Hotel has many food and drink options. Very extensive breakfast offered, tasty light lunches in the bar and a good restaurant. Evening bar food not quite so good but still acceptable. Did not use the spa or swimming pool but they both looked good. Extensive range of other activities (bowling, table football and shuffleboard) all very enjoyable although at extra cost.
