fabulous apartments in Hafjell a short walk from the centre of the village..
we stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment.. loads of room, all new equipment!
Just great, really cannot fault, we are going to come back here in 2011!!

We stayed one night in the hotel part. We turned up in the afternoon and found a hotel with plenty of vacant rooms (shame on you Venere.com claiming "only 2 rooms" or "not available, chose another"). A very welcoming service at arrival. We saw a lot of customers in the restaurant, so we planned for a later evening meal. Unfortunately the restaurant closed at 6, which we could never have guessed. Information in the room informed of opening at 12 noon, but no closing hours. Free wi-fi which neither was informed about. Receptionist could have informed on both. Room was small but sufficient. A tiny bathroom with shower and just enough room to "turn around". I dislike carpets as they are never really clean. Bed was a bit soft in my opinion. You can hear the traffic from E6, but not very disturbing. Breakfast was ok. Only a few occupied rooms doesn't give the biggest variety on the buffet.

We stayed in one apartment here, in Solsiden Apartments, in Dec 2010. The location is excellent, right on the ski slope, with a river in front and beatifull sights.
The hotel's staff is extremely friendly, they help you with any problem you might have.
The apartments are big and spacious, with big dining rooms, saunas, LCD tvs, comfy beds, floor heating, fully equiped kitchen, washing machine, etc.... You have at your own disposal everything you might need at an excellent price, making you fell as you are home. The kids loved it as there was so much for them to do.

The sking facilities were second to none with a very a selection of runs for starters and seasoned skiers.

We hired our equipment from Skibua Hafjell Skiutleie AS tel no + 47 61990493 and i must say they were the most freindly and helpful suppliers of ski equipment and very competitive on thier price. They also dropped and picked up the equipment from our apartments, a very big thankyou to them and we definately recommend them and use them again when we go back next year. Thier website is www.skibuahafjell.no.

We will definetely come back!

I could gush on and on about how much we enjoyed staying at the apartment. We had a 3 bedroom (8 bed) apartment. It was okay on the space as the beds are really pushed in there and there isn't a ton of room for gear. The beds were comfy. The bathrooms were spacious. It has a washer! Dishwasher! Fireplace! We were there in the off season so we got a decent deal. The view is stunning off the balcony. It was quiet and well insulated against the noise that a junior soccer team kicking balls off the side of the building... The area had a lot to do and I'm so glad we saw this part of Norway. I'd love to try it in the winter. If you are going to the Lillehammer area and can handle being a distance from restaurants and shopping then this is the place to stay. The apartment was well maintained and surprisingly modern. I'd recommend a car as a must have. Then go to the Olympic Wheelbob and go to Funderhossen. Great time! Thanks Norway for being a great destination!!
