I went to Skogstad and stayed for two nights - one mid-week night, and one weekend-night. Mid week was ok, but weekend was horrible. The noise from the nightclub was as loud as if the party was next door, the walls in the room were actually vibrating. Stay away from this hotel if you're there to get some sleep :)... more

Having heard good things about Norway and the skiing we decided to give it a whirl. We booked independently and spent quite a while trying to find a hotel at the right price for a family of four. When we booked the Skogstad we thought we had managed a great deal, we did, we found out that although they had... more

Usually the most important, or at least the basic purpose of booking a hotel room is to have a place to sleep. Not so at Skogstad. If you go here in the weekend to sleep - don't. If you go here to party you might be at the right place. Having been to Hemsedal quite a few times, I have... more

Love ski-ing but don't like major European resorts, so came here. Loads and loads of snow, but very little else to do in Hemsedal- tiny tiny town, with only one or two shops/restaurants etc. Skogstad was very pleaseant if a little eccentric- when we lost the heating in our room one night, they told us it was because too may... more

Booked our trip with Iglu Ski, one of the reasons we chose this hotel was that it was advertised with spa facilities including a pool, sauna and whirlpool. When we received our confirmation details we discovered that these would not be available and we're infact 'planned' - very disappointing and what's more, no compensation! The hotel nightclub had recently been... more

I stayed at the hotel Skogstad with my wife and children for a skiing holiday over half term. We arrived there pretty late on the sunday night and were given a different room to the one we had paid for. I complained at the time but the guy on reception said they were full and to sort it out in... more

We decided to go away skiing for New Year and due to the lack of snow in europe(!) thought we would try out Norway. .and how impressed we were!! We booked the flights(BA), car hire (avis)and hotel all separately as it was difficult to get a 4 day package to suit our requirements. However, It couldn't have been easier, the... more

We arrived at the hotel about 11pm and were very tired from the coach journey. When we arrived we fell in love with the place! it was so warm, cosy and welcoming. We sat by the big windows drinking hot chocolate and watched it snow outside. The room was on the corner of the hotel and we had the perfect... more

We booked the Skogstad Hotel (of the Norlandia chain of hotels) with Crystal Ski, and arrived there on 2nd April 2006, staying for one week. Having read the reviews of others before we went, we were prepared for some drawbacks, but overall we liked it so much that we hope to go again next year. The hotel is comfortable. Everything... more
