very nice hotel, spacious and well-equipped rooms (in Norwegian standard), tiny balcony outside the room, lovely view over the Mjøsa lake, old-style charm in dining room, excellent breakfast and a super-nice and service minded 60+ waitress who went that extra mile to make our breakfast a joy!! Two comfy chairs in the room and coffee/tea- making facilities.will DEFINITELY stay here again. As a matter of fact, we have already booked our next stay! :-)

A lovely old hotel with a wonderful large lobby and very nice breakfast room. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The location was very close to the train station and downtown. You can walk almost everywhere and the weather late June was lovely. Had dinner at a restaurant on the creek called Nikkers and everyone was very friendly and the outdoor terrace wonderful and relaxing.

The hotel itself looks a little "old" outside, and you can see some of it's age inside as well..

I've stayed at this hotel several times, both in business and leisure travels.

On the plus side, the hotel is in the middle of Lillehammer city, a short walk from the train station, and even a shorter walk up to the main street. The breakfast is great, all the Rica hotel's I've visited haves a great breakfast. So that's no surprise.
The lobby is nice, with good furniture, where you can rest, listen to the fireplace and enjoy a cup of coffee. The superior rooms are good, with a god view over the city and the lake Mjøsa on the other side the view of the olympic ski jump.

The standard rooms looks a little old, and i don't like them as mush as the superior rooms. But if you're going out to see Lillehammer city and the surrounding the "old" room shouldn't bother you..

This hotel got everything a hotel should have, and the city of Lillehammer is beautiful all year around.

Spent one night on 23 may, needed to change rooms as bulb in shower/wet room was broken however this was no problem and another identical, small but comfy enough room was provided with gentle humour and apology from desk staff. Free and fast wireless in room - ask for password when you check in. Free parking in front of hotel which is just north of the art museum - ask for a ticket to display on windscreen. Had dinner in hotel which turned out to be really expensive but food was good. We were the only people drinking wine in the place no surprise when you consider cheapest bottle of red was equivalent of £46. Only other food on offer in vicinity of hotel seemed to be pizza or pasta. Breakfast was great - a really fresh and delicious cold selection of fish, meat, cheese, eggs, bread, fruits, cereals, salads, juices and hot drinks. Also hot buffet - never seen meatballs on breakfast menu but you could have them and chilli sausages if you fancied them with your omelette and your 'eggs n bacon' Norse style! For 60NKR you could make up a packed lunch too. Wind whistled through the hotel all night but we did have windows open and we also wear earplugs so we didn't mind the noise but if you were very sensitive or a light sleeper then this may bother you?
