Reviewed Mar 15, 2026We really liked this hotel. It looks very presentable and is very cozy. Everything is done to make the guest feel comfortable. The staff is very friendly! We rented an apartment. It was clean, renovated, and quite spacious. We really liked the linens and mattresses, as well as the heated floors! The shower was also very comfortable! In addition, shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel were provided. The master bedroom has very convenient cabinets with shelves. The hallway is very spacious. The kitchen has the necessary utensils. The hotel is surrounded by forest tundra, which is quite nice. We once paid for dinner. It was very expensive, but exquisite and delicious. Breakfasts (included in the price) are also good. Cross-country skiing trails are nearby.
One of the downsides was that there was not a single electrical outlet in the master bedroom! There was no normal large kitchen knife. It would be great to have salt and oil in the kitchen so you don't have to bring them with you. The walk to the ski slope is 20 to 30 minutes (if you're wearing snowboards or ski boots), making it very difficult after a snowfall. If you choose to dine at the hotel, it's very late (after 7 PM). But we consider these to be minor disadvantages.

We booked Ilsetra because we went to watch the FIS World Cup Alpine Ski event in Hafjell ski resort. In the night we arrived we asked the staff for more details on where we should go and how go to get there but they seemed a bit lost. After a few minutes the guy showed us a point in the map where we should go. We went there in the following morning and that was not the right place - which ultimately made us to get late to the event. Management: Please give instructions to your staff when there’s a major event around.

Reviewed Apr 5, 2024Leiligheten var praktisk. Men det anbefales ikke å være flere enn to. Selv om det er to soverom blir det ufattelig trangt om man blir flere. Vi var to stk og gikk tomt for varmtvann ganske fort. Renholdet var så om så, det var mye spindelvev på lamper og i vegg/tak. På soverommet lyste ikke den ene vegglampen. Speilet på badet var så lite at det hadde ingen funksjon. Kjøleskapet var stilt inn så kaldt at våre matvarer ble fryst og ødelagt. Leiligheten var dyr, og svarte ikke til forventningene. Selve Ilsetra var ett flott sted. Hyggelige og fine omgivelser. Hotellet var fult, men det var ingen å som var i fellesområdene på kveldstid. Bassenget var åpnet, men temperaturen var litt kaldt. Garderoben var svært liten, og da det var mye folk der ble det både trangt og vanskelig å dusje. Det er kun to dusjer der. Men må også gå igjennom treningsstudioet for å komme til bassenget. Litt upraktisk. Området dette ligger på er fantastiske. Skiløype rett utenfor døren. Og det er kjempe fine. Det er også kort vei til slalåmbakken. Så beliggenheten er perfekt.
