Skarsnuten Hotel

When we checked into this hotel (ski resort) the very nice woman who checked us in was surprised that we had found them. I think we were the only English speaking couple in the entire resort. I don’t blame them for wanting to keep this place a local secret. What an amazing resort. We wanted a place to crash for the night 1/2 way on our drive from Oslo to Bergen. What we found was an Oasis. The place was immaculate and the service impeccable: It being summer time, we felt like we had the place to ourselves. We paid a very reasonable price to use the spa which has 2 outdoor jacuzzis, 1 indoor jacuzzi, steam room, and dry sauna. The spa attendant made us feel like we were in 5 star resort in Aspen. We ate supper at the Lynx restaurant and it was fantastic! Just a note…the rooms are not air conditioned which I think normally wouldn’t matter at a ski resort. We slept with the windows open and it was on the warm side of comfortable.

Beautiful room, nice hotel. The spa gets very busy quickly which diminishes the experience. The service was good but a little slow at times. However, the food was scrumptious and we will forever be dreaming of the spinach pea gnocci and dessert. We stayed two nights with a big dog. We booked the extra dog package and the room came with a nice bed, a toy (to keep), some snacks and two bowls with it!! Fabulous service for our fur babies 🐶. We will happily stay here again. Just a shame it is so expensive during winter…

Very friendly and welcoming staff. We arrived slightly early at 3pm and were able to check in without any issues. The room was spacious, clean, and came with spa bathrobes and flip flops, though we didn’t use them. Towels and bed linens were high quality and super comfortable, and the shower had excellent pressure. Indoor parking was conveniently connected to our floor, which made things very easy. Breakfast was hearty with a great variety. Dinner service was a bit slow, but the staff were attentive, friendly, and spoke good English. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and truly appreciated the warm hospitality.

Skarsnuten Hotel is a gem! Stunning mountain views, luxurious rooms with cozy beds, and super friendly staff make it unforgettable. Perfect location, top-notch spa, and great food. A must-stay for Hemsedal adventurers.

Great service, easy access to the slopes, stunning views from our room. Really good breakfast to start the day. Margarita has been very kind and professional, she made our stay even more enjoyable.

Amazing facilities, team, food (breakfast is amazing), spa is very relaxing and cleaning is superb! The gym is also very nice.||We felt very comfortable at Skarsnuten and the fact of having an amazing team (all staff is amazing) helps a lot when you are at a place far far away from home. They replied fast and detailed on emails even before arrival!! ||Big recognition to the cleaning team that made a perfect job everyday on our room and hotel facilities, everything is very very clean and well preserved.||Thanks to all team

This place is a gem. Great views, great food, premium spa, and direct access to the ski slopes. We couldn't have been happier with this place. Breakfast is perfect with lots of options and a combination of standard and local recipes. The wine cellar is impressive and sommelier guided tastings are worthwhile.

I usually never write a review before leaving the hotel,but this time I want to do it while I still have it all in fresh memory.We have traveled a lot in general all over the world but in Norway we have travelled mostly for skiing. The skiing in Hemsedal we were familiar with since many years ago but back then you didn’t have the possibility to stay in a hotel like this . The rooms,the views,the spa, food,the slopes just outside the door,but most of all : the staff! I usually I don’t praise the staff.Not because they don’t deserve it but because they,in a high end place like this are iexpected to be good. But here they are what makes the place! They are more than what you can expect . Friendly,charming sweet but most of all genuine.Emma,Margarita,Adonis,Stina are just some of the people serving us .The point is that we hope this place known the value they have in the staff and that they pay them accordingly! For us they made all the difference!
