“Welcoming, well equipped, conveniently located, accommodation with character”
Location was very convenient with just a short walk to the centre of Lillehammer yet in a quiet residential setting. Host was friendly and responsive but not intrusive. Full use of kitchen & dinning area plus private bathroom with good powerful shower plus access to washing machine & tumble drier. Beds are very comfortable. Cats are friendly and good for cat-lovers.

“Wish we could have stayed a few more days”
It was a lovely cosy house on a real part of Lillehammers residential area. It’s nice to be amongst the local people and not in a hotel with other tourists. We were a few minutes walk to the town or the lake. Perfect

“A very bad experience”
I was not actually able to experience the house because I could not get to Lillehammer due to the many roads closed during the floods caused by the heavy rains (Storm Hans), but I had a bad experience when interacting with the owner. When I asked for a cancellation with refund due to weather conditions, they first used Booking as an excuse to deny my request and after they simply ignored my messages, showing a total lack of empathy with our struggles with the rain on our road trip. So, if you have problems while in Norway, don't expect help from the people at The Gingerbread House.
