Very basic room. Dark and broken furniture. The beds in a twin room are so narrow, it’s barely a size of a standard single if you put the beds together.

The room smelled horrible when I arrived, and the bathroom had no handwash soap. Felt like I was staying at a place where homeless people would go or people to take drugs and party. Sheets were dirty, smelled bad of cigarettes, very uncomfortable, train right outside the window. Not a place I would recommend.

I'm so sorry you had to experience this, Of course, that should not happen. All rooms are washed and clean. And getting new sheets every time they are used. Is not allowed to smoke in the room, but hard to watch people. We do have routines if this happen (if people smokes) So sorry again. I will explain this to my colleague and boss. You are welcome back, and this will not happen again. Best regards Marie

Just walk across the lobby to checkin. Tourist info also located in the train station. Compact room was adequate with comfortable beds and linens. Great breakfast with a variety of offerings kept well stocked, served in the cafe in the train station. Inexpensive lunch can be packed as well from the buffet. Wifi strong and condistent. Walking distance to places of interest, shopping and grocery stores. Bonus was full service kitchen and breakroom with supply of cutlery, serving dishes, stove, microwave. refrigerators, etc. Attention is paid to recycling options. Highly recommend.

Overpriced hostel
The place is overpriced compare with the value you get. The shower was dirty (hairs were on the bottom of the shower), and the pillows were smelly. Besides, the hotel/hostel is located in the main station which in the crowdy days could be uncomfortable. However, the staff in the cafe were extremly helpful and nice, the breakfast was OK, and having the tea/coffee available for the guests were also nice token to have. Only recommend this place as the last place to stay, and also if you don't care about being charged for a nice hotel but staying at a hoste.

Visited Lillehammer For just one night and the hotel was excellent. It is right above the train station but remarkably quiet; despite the fact our room was right above the platform we didn't hear a thing . Nice and central, good breakfast selection and friendly staff. Would stay again for a longer visit .

Location at station
once we'd worked out that the cafe was also the reception all was well. Is the old station building with accommodation in attached new block.lift access and stairs.Opening window, our view over bus station but not noisy at all. No kettle but free tea/coffee available in old part and as it's a hostel there's also a guest kitchen and sitting area in accommodation area. tables outside old building nice to sit in late evening sun

Cute place to stat and very convenient!
Great little hotel attached the the new train station. Fairly tight rooms, but not a problem at all for our party of 7 (4 in one room and 3 in another). Good breakfast with nice variety. Nice front desk people that helped us know what to do around town. Definitely try out the bobsled course just north of town!!

Very pleasant hotel with easy foot access to town.
While the room is small it was very comfortable, as were the beds. Despite it being immediately next to the railway station the double glazing kept noise to a minimum. We were not at all disturbed by the trains. The view out over the train lines is magnificent so get a room on that side rather than the town side. We had a buffet breakfast included in the booking and it was great. Plenty to choose from and all good quality. We had dinner there as well and the meals were very good. The parking is across the railway line from the hotel and there is direct access. We did a drop off outside the entrance in the bus area.

Decent hotel
It was okay stay. Nothing fancy in the room. Bit awkward setup in the bathroom. Taking a shower might flooded other end of the bathroom. Forward thinking by the management to leave a mop for self serviceing. Didn't use the kitchen but for some it could be great advantage. Location wise you cannot find anything closer to public transportation.

Hotel adjoined to the station
Having the accommodation in the station complex was very convenient. A lady at the station shop suggested a train to Trondheim and then a night train to Bodo rather than spend a day in Lillehammer. She was very helpful and pleasant.

The hotel was very convenient. We arrived and left via train. It was so nice to just step off the train and walk into the hotel. The only downside is we got to town around 10:00 pm, and there was only one open restaurant.

A room IN a train station....
This hostel did everything we needed it to! Rooms were clean and of an adequate size, nice and easy for trains. Kitchen was on the small side but ok, some dishes were dirty and we did wonder about the effectiveness of a dishwasher. Staff were all helpful and friendly. All in all an average stay!

Good value for the money
We initially thought it will be a bad experience, since the hotel is really at the railway station. But from the moment we entered the room, our thoughts changed. The room is pretty much what you need when you just stay a few days in the city. Very clean, toilet comfortable, breakfast really above average (didn't have it everywhere we stayed in Norway), so the hotel is a good value for the money I would say

convenient location -- basic but nice atmosphere
The hotel is based in the main train station -- but it's all very relaxed and the facilities are good, and definitely value for money. Don't expect a lavish breakfast, just a good one. There is also some reasonable food available in the evening. Very friendly staff. Only downside was that the internet in my room didn't work, and despite the staff saying that it would be reparied the next day, this didn't happen for all the days I stayed there. And I didn't notice any room service, which was a bit odd too. But if you want value for money this is definitely a place to be.

The hostel is in a great location for travellers, being within the train station building! The room was a standard hostel 4 bed room, with well kept room and bathroom. The building and facilities were new and excellent, and the communal area a comfortable place to relax. The staff were friendly, helpful and generous. The breakfast the next morning was good

this hostel was first class. Arrived late and the lovely receptionist gave me my own room even although I was booked into a dorm. Fantastic views, lovely food and very comfy beds. Nice and quiet with a kitchen, common room and wi-fi. wifi only work in common aeas but can easily reach them from bedrooms. A Fab hostel which I will go back to with my son.

Great service, friendly staff, very nice hostel
Hotels are expensive in Norway, se we looked for hostels. This newly renovated space right in the train station has a great location, very helpful and friendly staff, and our room was quite nice. Definitely a cut above the average hostel. Nice breakfast included, convenient cafe, and hostel kitchen/separate dining area too. Only downside was coming and going of trains and busses, naturally to be expected in this location. My wife aned I are well past the youth hostel stage, but would recommend this place to anyone not needing the full hotel experience.

Construction
The room was very comfortable. Getting to the room was difficult because this is hotel is under construction/renovation. The front desk is very difficult to locate but the front staff is knowledgeable and very pleasant and helpful. The female staff member on the floor does not even know what floor she is on. This hostel will be great after the construction. It is not worth it right now.

Convenient and cheap in an expensive city!
You get what you pay for... a twin room with a tv and an ensuite bathroom. The price was the cheapest in town but if all you want is a clean room with no frills then this is the place to book. There is also a kitchen you can use with an oven and microwave which you might make use of once you see the prices in the restaurants in town (we did!).

Wonderful location.
Great location and extremely helpful staff. Our room was very warm as the days are long in Norway plus the fact that our room was on the railroad side of the hotel and the late night express trains were very load even with the windows closed.
