Lillehammer in winter is enchanting - snow covered, charming shops, lots of people around. Walking the town is very interesting - great views of the river valley, interesting architecture. If you like to cross country ski, this is the Mecca! hundreds of kilometers of ski trails nearby, groomed everyday. I was focused on skiing, then an afternoon walk. There are a couple worthy museums. The Olympic Park is a worthwhile climb above town. Otherwise not much entertainment or other sights.

An awesome place to walk into snowy nature.
An awesome place to walk into snowy nature. I wanted snow in the week before Christmas. I was afraid the town would only be suited for ski enthousiast. That was not the case. I made some nice walks into snowy nature in the forest and countryside in and around town. It wasn’t very crowded.
I came to Lillehammer for some old-fashioned Christmas atmosphere. That’s exactly what it provided. A snowy cute town with lights and music everywhere.
The town is dead though after 6 PM. All shops are closed, only restaurants are opened.

Olympic museum was closed ( probably because it was a Monday). I was very disappointed because that was our main reason for visiting. Town is very walkable. Nice to see Olympic ski jump area. Folk museum was closed due to season. Wish they had signs about Olympic venues. We did not know about luge and bobsled track, guessed where skating venue was. Museum should be open more or have resource info available.

Lillehammer is the perfect place for a little getaway if you fancy a stay in a smaller town (but despite the size, it has it all!). Best for it's magical atmosphere leading up to Christmas and for skiing, but lovely any time of year- especially if you're into wintersports, art or just meandering through one of the nicest towns in the country.

Lillehammer is a charming town. Always love to come back.
Lillehammer is a charming town. Always love to come back. Great for walking (even in the snow). Love Maihaugen and the Olympic museum (the Olympics are why I first decided to visit Lillehammer).
I've been there in summer and winter. Could not pick my favorite season. I think one should experience both!

Nice little town even in the autumn when there’s no skiing.
Nice little town even in the autumn when there’s no skiing. A couple of days worth of interesting sights and walks; culture + nature. What’s not to like?
We recommend the little pancake cafe on the Storgard pedestrian street
There is a lot to like. It's a venerable facility--125 years old, but with nice updates. The staff is unusually kind and accommodating. They seemed genuinely proud to be working in this historic hotel. The views from the rooms (I stayed in 2) are extraordinary. The breakfast is extensive and excellent. The location is perfect--close to the train station and also close to the center of town, with good shops and restaurants nearby.
A basic, yet lovely hotel, above the Lillehammer train station.
Check in at the railway station cafe was easy. The room was basic but nice with a view of the trains, plus the lake and the mountains. Bed was comfortable. Shower was ok.
We had no problem with noise from the trains, however we had the window closed.
There is also a communal kitchen/ lounge area, With a microwave, cooktop and an oven.
Nice, fairly typical hotel, a bit in its original style but very healthy and clean. Ideally located in Lillehammer, it allows you to do everything on foot. The breakfast is plentiful and varied.
The staff are very pleasant and accommodating, thanks to them for their advice and everyday's kindness.
Everything was great, especially that we arrived in bad weather and I was booked for one night as a rest stop, but because of the weather we canceled all our reservations in other hotels and preferred to settle in this hotel with good treatment, cleanliness and beautiful atmosphere in the area
Great and friendly place to stay with kids, great base for X-Country Skiing with lovely winter walks right from the house. Supermarkets are close in driving distance. Public Bus station close for town explorations & one way hikes!
Cosy home with a grand view for winter & summer!
The staff at this hotel is really friendly and helpful. We arrived early hoping to store our bags and ski for the afternoon. They had a lovely room ready, let us check in early, and gave us tips for the afternoon's skiing. I would stay here again!
Clean, simple, you have towels and body wash, the bathroom is nice.
Breakfast is amazing, better than in many hotels i’ve stayed in. Staff is super super nice. They even let us leave our luggage there while we were exploring Lillehammer.
It was a lovely cosy house on a real part of Lillehammers residential area. It’s nice to be amongst the local people and not in a hotel with other tourists. We were a few minutes walk to the town or the lake. Perfect
The hotel is in a great spot, in the centre of town. Breakfast was extensive and delicious. In the week before Christmas it was not very crowded. It had a great Christmas vibe. The room was nice and modern.
Clean facilities, well equipped modern kitchen, parking places close to the entrance, good location only 15 minutes away by car from Hafjell ski center. But on top of that a really nice and helpful owner
the front desk is very accommodating and super helpful! I left my phone card in the room and called back to look for it. The lady went out of her way to help. We highly recommend the hotel!
The staff were very friendly and welcoming and nothing was to much if asked
Cleaners in this hotel seem exceptional and seem to always be happy in there work, always on hand if needed
Very nice hotel and rooms. Clean, modern and large. Very nice surroundings and short walking distance to center of town. Good parking for free. Good breakfast.
