Spent a couple of days in winter time and enjoyed it a lot. Piece and quiet and very friendly staff that was extremely supportive and made you feel comfortable. The breakfast was excellent in my opinion, offering everything you need including some home made local specialties (blueberry, lingonberry etc jam) and some regional specialties (northern part of Sweden) that I loved, like cloud-berry yogurt - delicious! If you wished to have scrambled eggs, which was not part of the standard breakfast buffet, they simply made one for you. The restaurant and the bar looked very nice, also serving some local beer. Regrettably I didn't have something there (not in these Covid-19 days...).||||I liked that there was a spacious gym, fairly well equipped, definitely good enough for my work out lifting weights (there were equipment for cardio as well). Although some of the equipment didn't work properly. I informed the staff about it so I trust this will be taken care of.||||The hotel is situated right next to - definitely ski-in ski-out - a small ski resort with a lot of history. This was the home base for former alpine skiing world champions like Ingemar Stenmark, Stig Strand and Anja Persson just to mention a few! If you like alpine skiing this might be considered as a sacred place. Despite the size of the resort the design of the slopes is definitely better than average for Sweden if you prefer quite a lot of variation. This ski resort is part of the Hemavan/Tärnaby system which means you have the significantly bigger Hemavan resort just a 20 minute drive away, both being included in the same ski-pass. Furthermore on the ground floor of the hotel there is a ski shop too where you can buy or rent equipment, clothes and accessories for alpine or cross country skiing or just hiking in the mountains. Very convenient! They even offer ski testing days when you can try out different types/models/brands of skis. Outstanding! The same shop also offers snow mobile rental!||||Some additional very nice features of the hotel worth mentioning is the panorama sauna on the top floor, with an appealing mountain view, and the ice bath available in the river right across the road outside the hotel! In winter time they keep a hole in the ice open and you can go for an invigorating swim! Exotic and inspiring. It's just a pity there's no sauna available, even if just a small one, right next to the river - that would be top class!||||I'd definitely consider coming back if I were to go these parts.
