Gjestehuset Ersgård

Frommer's Review

With more of a down-on-the-farm style of living than all the others, we recommend the rooms here for those who want an old-fashioned Norwegian atmosphere -- the way life was before the tourists arrived. A family hotel, this inn was created from a 1570 farmstead on the outskirts of town. Ersgård sits atop a mountain overlooking Lillehammer with views of Lake Mjøsa. If you have a car, this choice makes for an ideal stay. The bedrooms are furnished with birch pieces in old-fashioned Norwegian designs. Some of the bedrooms have small bathrooms with showers; occupants of other rooms will find the corridor bathrooms adequate. The generous Norwegian buffet breakfast is reason enough to stay here, featuring everything from herring to goat cheese. Bus service is available twice a day. The hotel lies 1.5km (1 mile) from the town center at Olympic Park; follow the signs to Nordseter if you're driving.
